"Oh, I think it's been awesome," Yankees manager Aaron Boone said about the Knicks' run to the top, according to the NBA's official website. "What a fun team to get behind and just the story of that team and how it's kind of come together over the last couple of years and just a lot of grit, a lot of mental fortitude.

The Knicks' parade is scheduled for Thursday in Manhattan. It kicks off at Battery Park and closes out at City Hall Plaza with a Key to the City ceremony, giving New Yorkers another chance to celebrate their team's win.
