So Which Team Historically Owns the Knicks?

…. absolutely hate this, but it’s the Boston Celtics.

This is just regular season data, but the Knicks all-time winning % against the Celtics is a sad 38.5% (a total of 447 games have been played between the two).

It’s not all too surprising though since the Celtics are historically the league’s best team.

Further, the Knicks worst winning % are against the Spurs (43.8%), Lakers (40.7%) and Celtics. All teams that have pretty much owned the league at some point.

Which teams have the Knicks fared the best against?

Here’s the full list -

  1. Clippers: 59.5% (116 Games Played)
  2. Wizards: 59.4% (276 GP)
  3. HEAT: 57.1% (98 GP)
  4. Timberwolves: 56.8% (44 GP)
  5. Grizzlies: 56.3% (32 GP)
  6. Cavaliers: 56% (184 GP)
  7. Hornets: 55.8% (77 GP)
  8. Bobcats: 55.2% (29 GP)
  9. Pistons: 55.2% (357 GP)
  10. Pacers: 55.2% (154 GP)
  11. Nuggets: 53.3% (75 GP)
  12. Rockets: 53.1% (130 GP)
  13. Thunder: 52.5% (118 GP)
  14. Raptors: 52.3% (65 GP)
  15. Nets: 50.6% (168 GP)
  16. Suns: 50% (114 GP)
  17. Jazz: 50% (84 GP)
  18. Bucks: 48.9% (188 GP)
  19. Kings: 48.6% (286 GP)
  20. Mavericks: 48.4% (64 GP)
  21. Warriors: 48.3% (327 GP)
  22. Hawks: 47.3% (358 GP)
  23. Magic: 47.2% (89 GP)
  24. Bulls: 47.1% (204 GP)
  25. Trailblazers: 45.5% (99 GP)
  26. 76ers: 44% (427 GP)
  27. Spurs: 43.8% (80 GP)
  28. Lakers: 40.7% (275 GP)
  29. Celtics: 38.5% (447 GP)

I’m sure there are a few more teams that their best record is against the Clippers.

Any surprises for you guys?

I know one for me is the Bucks. I thought we were worse than that.
