(AP)<\/strong> \u2014 Honored for his devotion to a basketball team that doesn&#8217;t have a Hall of Fame history, Billy Crystal couldn&#8217;t help but note the irony.<br>\u201cHow strange to be getting a ring before any of the Clippers,\u201d he said.<br>The actor is being added to the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame\u2019s James F. Goldstein SuperFan Gallery and took part in a ceremony Sunday along with fellow entertainer and filmmaker Spike Lee and Philadelphia businessman Alan Horwitz. Longtime Lakers fan Jack Nicholson is also being added, but the three-time Academy Award winner was not able to attend.<br>Crystal wore a sports jacket and slacks, while Lee and Horwitz dressed as if they were sitting courtside. Lee, with an orange vest over a New York sweatshirt and topped by a black Knicks bucket hat, sparred with the opposition as if he were in his seat at Madison Square Garden.<br>\u201cI saw some Boston Celtic green. Uh-uh,\u201d he said before showing the fans that he had brought coach Red Holzman&#8217;s 1973 NBA championship ring, the last one won by the Knicks.<br>\u201cIt\u2019s been a long time, but I think this year, it\u2019s going to be orange-and-blue skies,\u201d Lee said.<br>Horwitz, known as the 76ers&#8217; Sixth Man, wore a 76ers sweatshirt, a blue Sixers hat, and blue-and-white colored sneakers. He got choked up while thinking about how proud his mother would have been had she known about his honor.<br>Their time as basketball fans goes back more than five decades. Horwitz watched the Philadelphia Warriors when Wilt Chamberlain was a rookie in 1959. Crystal was in high school a couple of years earlier when he was drawn to another high schooler, Larry Brown, who would later be enshrined after winning championships as a coach in college and the NBA.<br>Lee was in the arena when the Knicks won their first championship in 1970, and Crystal was at MSG plenty of times himself, having started out as a Knicks fan. He went to Lakers games when he moved across the country before someone recommended he check out a Clippers game.<br>\u201cAnd I said, \u2018Why?\u2019\u201d Crystal said.<br>But he enjoyed it and has remained with them ever since, even though the team has never rewarded him with a championship. Lee has had Knicks season tickets since 1985, when they drafted Patrick Ewing, though it took a while to get to the prime real estate he occupies now.<br>\u201cEvery film I moved down,\u201d he said.<br>While Lee is talking title this season, Crystal doesn&#8217;t have such high expectations for the Clippers. But he noted that the devoted fans stick with their teams no matter what.<br>Not that it&#8217;s always easy. A baby started crying as he spoke.<br>\u201cThat\u2019s how we felt for the last 30 years,\u201d Crystal said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By BRIAN MAHONEY AP Basketball Writer SPRINGFIELD, Mass.
