1970 Knicks were the absolute "best" NBA team ever. All 1970 Knicks played as a "team" and. the phrase "hit-the-open-man" became reality with those Knick players. All the Knicks knew, and were coached to play as a team. No individual super stars, but five good players adhering to the coaching of Red Holzman. I will never forget watching that 7th playoff game against the Lakers! I've never watched another NBA game that excited me as much as this one did. When Big Willis walked out onto the court the shouts of support and respect was awesome!

I met these guys and even spent some time with Bradley, and they were the nicest group of guys I'd come across. I was young, they were gentlemen and I am so glad I had the chance to meet them. RIP Debusschere, and Bradley...call me! :)

Id say DeBusschere was a great player too along with Reed and Frazier...top 50 and all-around one of the best forwards ever. Top athlete too; was a major league pitcher with the White Sox.

I think this was actually the best NBA Team ever, period. Once the Knicks got Dave Debusschere, he was the key. Equal scoring, 4 guys in double figures (average), and 2 guys on all, all-time defensive teams, Frazier and Debusschere. Some say Dick Barnett was a week point, but he led in scoring most games. 2 of their backups could have started on any other team, Cazzie Russell and Dave Stallworth. All 5 starters numbers were retired, which is quite amazing.

I don't think any team could have beaten this Knicks team in a series. They had 7 guys on the team that could shoot from anywhere on the court and hit. Bradley, Debuschere, Frazier and Barnett from 20 feet out. And this was before the 3 point shot. Willis Reed was very good shooter from the outside too, for a big man. The could all, also drive to the basket. I really doubt there was ever a better team, and I'm from Philadelphia originally.

To not have Dave Debusschere on the top 50 NBA players of all time, is a crime. He was undoubtedly the best defensive forward that ever played basketball. He only averaged 14 points per game, but that's because the Knicks always had at least 4 players in double figures, and sometimes 5 in double figures. The whole team could pretty much hit from anywhere on the court. Yes, they were pretty much amazing. They also had probably the best bench of any team ever.
