How to play the New York Knicks roster timeline

Line up the Knicks by the year each player first pulled on the jersey. The cards give you a name and, nearly always, a position, and nothing else. A single Knick starts on the timeline with his year visible, and every card after it has to find a gap. Guess correctly and its year is revealed. Guess wrong and the player is moved into his true place, at the price of one of your three lives.

As one of the league's founding clubs, New York brings a deep history: the early Garden days, the celebrated title teams, the bruising defensive contenders and the recent resurgence. Centers make up a big share of the cards, so that label rarely settles anything. The rough patches in between are where runs fall apart, because the players from those seasons are easy to forget. Stars who arrived by trade near the end of their careers can fool you too.

Want a longer game? On the deck tree you can tick this deck alongside any other one measured in release years and dates, and they shuffle into a single timeline together.
