INGLEWOOD, Calif. — On Monday, hours before the L.A. Clippers’ game against New York, two old friends shared a laugh near center court. It has been more than two decades since Jeff Van Gundy coached the Knicks, and just as long since Patrick Ewing played there. But here they were, reunited, Van Gundy, an assistant coach with the Clippers, and Ewing chatting it up from a pair of courtside seats.
“A heartwarming sight,” Mike Breen said later on the MSG Network broadcast.
