The road to the title starts here.
The 2024 NBA season tips off tonight, with the New York Knicks visiting TD Garden to take on the defending champion Boston Celtics. After coming up short in last season’s Eastern Conference Finals, the Knicks are hungry for redemption as new arrivals Karl-Anthony Towns and Mikal Bridges make their regular season debuts in orange and blue. Boston, fresh off their 18th title, will celebrate with a banner raising and ring ceremony. Try not to upset the neighbors with your booing.
