Alphonse Pierre's Off the Dome column covers songs, mixtapes, albums, scenes, snippets, movies, Meek Mill tweets, fashion trends—and anything else that catches his attention. This week, Alphonse waxes poetic on his beloved New York Knicks, a potential team of destiny that brings to mind the past, present, and future of the city's hip-hop scene.

The article from Yahoo Sports discusses the unique connection between the New York Knicks and New York's hip-hop culture. It highlights how the Knicks, a storied NBA franchise, have been intertwined with hip-hop since the genre's rise in the 1980s. Iconic figures like Jay-Z, who has been a prominent Knicks fan, and Spike Lee, a filmmaker and avid supporter often seen courtside, exemplify this relationship.

This cultural fusion is seen as a reflection of New York's diverse and vibrant identity.
