The Issue: The New York Knicks’ first NBA championship win in 53 years. Congratulations to the New York Knicks. It was a long time coming ( “Way to Go, NY, Go NY, Go!!” June 15). Lest anyone forget, it took the Chicago Cubs 108 years to win another World Series, and it was 35 years before the New England Patriots hoisted their first Lombardi Trophy. History has a funny way of rewarding patience. You never know when your favorite team will finally go all the way. Denny Freidenrich Laguna Beach,
