NBA Preseason: New York Knicks vs. Maccabi Tel Aviv
The Euroleague American Tour continues as the New York Knicks host Maccabi Tel Avaiv today at the Madison Square Garden. Discuss the game in our forum.
From the New York Times:
D’Antoni won two European championships against Maccabi during his playing days with Olimpia Milano. More recently, the Knicks beat Maccabi, 112-85, two years ago in a preseason game.
The game drew about 18,000 fans, the largest crowd ever for an exhibition at the Garden. With Israeli flags waving in the stands, it was not always clear which was the home team.
Sales of tickets to the game will benefit Migdal Ohr, a center for orphans and abused and underprivileged children in Israel.
