Congrats to the New York Knicks on winning their first NBA title in 53 years. In 1994, the New York Rangers broke a 54-year championship drought when they beat Vancouver to win their first Stanley Cup since 1940. In 1998, Michael Jordan hit the championship winner over Utah's Bryon Russell to lift Chicago to their sixth NBA title in the '90s. In 1990, Detroit's Vinnie Johnson hit the championship winner over Portland's Jerome Kersey to life the Pistons to their second consecutive title. In 1949, Philadelphia's Eddie Waitkus was shot by an obsessed fan in a Chicago hotel room. He survived and returned in 1950.
