1971 OG: 57 NB: 33 Historical: OG: 590 points, 9 victories and 3 rings NB: 266 points, 3 victories and 2 rings.

The Knicks again told the tale. They finished 52-30, beating out 23 pro basketball teams and winning what was now a 4-team eastern division. They lost in the semis to the Bullets, (Baltimore finally beating New York!) That was worth 30 points. The Rangers also had a very good season, 49-18-11 (109 NHL points. That was better than 12 teams but second to the Bruins in the East. They lost in the semis to the Black Hawks. That was another 15 points. The Yankees slipped to 82-80, better than 11 teams, (but not better than the Mets). The Giants collapsed to 4-10, beating out only the 1-13 Bills. But Daddy had 57 points.

The Nets finished 40-44, ahead of 11 pro basketball teams and lost in the ABA quarterfinals to something called the Virginia Squires, which got them another point. The Mets were 83-79 again, better than 13 teams, (including the Yankees). The Jets improved slightly to 6-8, better than 8 NFL teams. That added up to 33 points. Junior still didn’t have a hockey team to root for but that was coming.
