Since then, Sprewell has been a favorite among New York's hard-hearted fans, who have embraced his maturity and industry. He still blazes with intensity--his suffocating defense on Carter included a flagrant but not malicious foul that floored Air Canada. But Spree leaves it all on the court, and even NBA commissioner David Stern has had kind words for him. It's Sprewell's face, after all, that the League elected to represent the Knicks in its playoff commercials. "I'm glad I was able to turn it around," Sprewell told reporters last week.

When platitudes replace precision, it seems, everyone loses. The op-ed crowd, of course, cries foul. Voters are deprived of an informed choice.

Even though the rivalry was basically one-sided, a Chicago-New York match-up never ceased to be special. Memorable moments such as Charles Smith's four layup misses at the end of Game 5 of the 1993 Conference Finals or Patrick Ewing finally rejoicing after beating the Bulls in the seventh...
Despite being ruled foul, the almost-homerun by Koppel affected the outcome of the game drastically...
