Red Sox Patriots Celtics Bruins ... Celtics BASKETBALL NOTES Expect Celtics to be a green team July 24, 2005 What you now see, apparently, is what you're going to get. The Celtics' 2005-06 season may not start for several months, but their roster looks pretty much set. The only wrinkle: the destination of Antoine Walker and who might come in return. Putting aside the fate of Employee No. 8 for a second, the Celtics now have 14 players who either are signed for next season or will be soon. Maybe Doc Rivers should get them together for the Under-21 World Championships to be held next month in Argentina. That's because of the 14 players, an astonishing nine are either on their rookie contracts or the second-round equivalent. Those nine represent 90 percent of Danny Ainge's haul in the last three drafts. The only one not still around: Brandon Hunter. We have Marcus Banks and Kendrick Perkins from 2003; Tony Allen, Delonte West, Al Jefferson, and Justin Reed from 2004; and Gerald Green, Ryan Gomes, and Orien Greene from 2005. We know Greene is in the picture for next season because, as colleague Shira Springer reported last week, his postdraft foot surgery was done with the understanding that he'd be healed in time for training camp. You don't operate on low-second-round picks in the summer unless you have plans for them in the fall. Gomes, meanwhile, so impressed the hierarchy with his play in the Las Vegas Summer League that the Celtics are prepared to give him a three-year deal at a shade more than the rookie minimum, which means it likely will have to come out of the team's midlevel exception. (Brian Scalabrine's signing accounted for around $2.5 million of the exception, which is expected to be in the $5 million range.)

KNICKS HISTORY On June 6, 1946 charter franchise of the Basketball Association of America was granted to Madison Square Garden. The New York Knickerbockers were born. November 1, 1946 marked the first game in the history of the BAA. In that game the Knicks defeated the Toronto Huskies, 68-66. The starting five were Stan Stutz, Ralph Kaplowitz, Jake Weber, Ossie Schectman and Leo "Ace" Gottlieb. The Knicks finished the season with a record of 33-27. The legendary Joe Lapchick became the head coach of the Knicks and they finished the season with a record of 26-22. The Knicks finished the season with a record of 32-28. The Basketball Association of America and the National Basketball League merged and formed the National Basketball Association. Nathaniel "Sweetwater" Clifton became the first African-American player to play for the Knicks. At the end of the 1950-51 season, the Knicks played in their first NBA finals, but were defeated by the Rochester Royals, 79-75, in an exciting seven game series. The Knicks finished the season with a 37-29 record and once again reached the NBA Finals. The Minneapolis Lakers defeated the Knicks in seven games.

Show All Days Site Search: document.write(''); Their Finest Hour By LEONARD KOPPETT May 8, 1970 NEW YORK [Friday]-The New York Knickerbockers, displaying their finest qualities with the limited physical but important spiritual aid of a limping Willis Reed, won the championship of the National Basketball Association tonight by routing the Los Angeles Lakers, 113‚99, at Madison Square Garden. Darlings of the basketball world and a subject of national sports interest since November, when they set a league record by winning 18 games in a row, the Knicks finally achieved the first title in their 24-year history by winning the seventh game of the final round of the playoffs. It was their 101st game this season. Walt Frazier, with 36 points and 19 assists, was the most brilliant individual, but this, like most Knick successes, was basically a team enterprise. By winning, the Knicks gave New York's happy sports fans their third professional world championship in 16 months. The football Jets won the Super Bowl game in January, 1969, and the baseball Mets took the World Series last fall. For the 19,500 screaming spectators, the Knicks produced a staggeringly effective defense, their trademark throughout the season. In addition, their shooting was deadly in the first quarter as they built a 38‚24 lead. Soon they had a 51‚31 margin and it didn't dip below 20 points until the closing minutes.

When teams treat the draft like a time for summer slumber, some true gems can slip through FOR NBA HISTORIANS AND FANS of the draft, it's amazing that so many current teams believe any draft pick outside of the lottery is a complete waste of time. The draft has been filled with great players, even Hall-of-Famers, who were chosen lower than the first round. How many people were paying attention in 1964 when the New York Knicks made Jim "Bad News" Barnes of Texas Western (now Texas-El Paso) the top choice? Well, just about any basketball fan. But how many were still paying attention when Willis Reed of Grumbling was the top selection of the second round? Not nearly the same number. Reed became the best center in Knicks history and the cornerstone of two championships. Barnes was a serviceable player, hardly a title-maker.

The scholarship, which is based on academic achievement, community and athletic involvement and merit, is given to one graduating Proctor senior each year. Pokon said he still is not sure who nominated him as a candidate, but he is appreciative.
