Popularly known as the Knicks, the New York Knickerbockers are, apart from the Boston Celtics, the only charter members of the National Basketball Association still in their original cities. History The origin of the term "Knickerbockers" can be traced back to Dutch visitors who arrived in what we call New York today in the 17th century. To be more precise, it refers to the style of pants they wore - rolled up just below the knee, which earned the name "Knickerbockers," or "knickers". Over the ages, the "Knickerbocker" character merged into the identity of New York City and "Father Knickerbocker" came to be recognized as its cultural symbol. It appears that the club’s founder, Ned Irish first made the decision to call the team the "Knickerbockers." Later it was shortened to Knicks. Maintaining another tradition of the city, the team's colors have always (the lone exception being the years from 1980-81 through 1982-83) been orange, blue and white. The Knicks played for the NBA title three times in the 1950s. But the team saw its finest days in the early 1970s, when the Knicks won two NBA championships with such great talents like Willis Reed, Walt Frazier, Dave DeBusschere, Earl Monroe, and Bill Bradley. In the 1990s, the Knicks again gave a strong performance, advancing to the finals in 1994 and 1999.
