The parade was endless, and after a while more than a little comical. Latrell Sprewell, who once upon a time dunked a basketball in a Minnesota Timberwolves uniform, landed, sought out the owner of the Knicks and offered this greeting — “BLEEEEEEEEP YOOOOOU!!!!!” — was introduced, lauded, cheered.
Larry Johnson was there, and Gerald Wilkins, and Kenny (Sky) Walker. Herb Williams was there, of course, because it seems like Herb has been on the Garden floor since before there first was a 3-point line on there. Bernard King was there, and Dollar Bill Bradley, and they visited the Knicks in the locker room.
