UPPER EAST SIDE, NY — Whether you're a long-suffering fan or just jumping on the bandwagon now, there are plenty of places to watch the first Knicks' finals since 1999 without leaving the Upper East Side.
The NBA Finals are currently underway, with the New York Knicks leading the San Antonio Spurs 1–0 after winning the first game on Wednesday.
