The Eastern Conference Finals finally arrive at Madison Square Garden on Tuesday night, with the third-seeded Knicks hosting the fourth-seeded Cleveland Cavaliers.

Tyler Kolek — New York Knicks Look, I’m not trying to tell head coach Mike Brown how to […]
After sweeping away the hapless Philadelphia 76ers last Sunday, the Knicks were able to spend the last week in a rare spot as spectators, watching the seven-game clash between the Detroit Pistons and Cleveland Cavaliers while resting, practicing, and rehabbing for the series. Ultimately, it was Cleveland that prevailed on Sunday night in the Motor […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers won’t be able to celebrate their Game 7 victory over the Detroit Pistons for long. They’ll have less than 48 hours to turn around and play the New York Knicks in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals on Tuesday. All games in the Eastern Conference Finals will be on either ESPN […]
Nothing better than a Game 7, amirite? Actually, there’s something even better about today’s matchup, as the Knicks aren’t involved and will be just enjoying the bloodbath from afar! Here’s the latest from Tarrytown as New York patiently waits to know its ECF foe. Mike Brown On supporting Mikal Bridges amid benching questions: “I was […]
The Philadelphia 76ers got publicly humiliated by the Knicks, and even Jalen Brunson was stunned.
We’ve reached a point where you can say the Cavs and the Pistons are doing this on purpose to prevent Knicks fans from enjoying New York basketball. But hey, seven games on their legs? Can’t complain! We’re the latest four days and a few hours from the ECF Game 1 tip-off. Finally. Mike Brown On […]

The National Basketball Association might have leaked the script for the upcoming conference finals, hasn’t it?

The Philadelphia 76ers shocked the Boston Celtics by coming back from a 3-1 series deficit to defeat them in the first round. But it was business as usual for Philly once they reached the second round, getting swept in four straight by the New York Knicks. It's the 6th time in the last nine years that Philly has bowed out in the second round, with two other first-round exits and one year out of the playoffs altogether.

The Cleveland Cavaliers lead the Detroit Pistons by the same margin in the East. Meanwhile the New York Knicks and Oklahoma City […]
The second round of the 2026 NBA Playoffs has been … interesting. On one hand, there’s been two yawner series, with the Thunder comfortably (albeit not dominantly) sweeping the short-handed Lakers, while the Knicks swept a tired, limping 76ers team in the East. On the other, you have two thrilling (but not “beautiful”) series heading […]
Jalen Brunson’s 2025 postseason run was, once again, special. Just like pretty much every other playoff appearance he’s made as a Knick, he made history, joining lists filled with names like Michael Jordan, LeBron James, Larry Bird, Kobe Bryant, and Steph Curry. Statistically, it was his second-best one, inferior only to the year prior’s, as […]

The New York Knicks are off to the Eastern Conference Finals once again after a sweep of the Philadelphia 76ers.

When OG Anunoby missed the closing minutes of the Knicks’ game two victory over the 76ers, New York fans couldn’t help but expect bad news. After seeing the team’s playoff run suddenly come to a halt just two seasons ago when the forward strained his hamstring, PTSD started to creep in. Thankfully, by the following […]
Mikhail Prokhorov famously said that his Nets would “turn Knicks fans into Nets fans.” The Nets owner, a confirmed bachelor, also promised that if the Nets didn’t win a title in five years, he’d get married. Spoiler alert: None of those things happened. So Sam Zussman, now president of Nets parent Brooklyn Sports & Entertainment […]
The Eastern Conference bracket of the 2026 NBA Playoffs is narrowing down to an exciting conclusion. The New York Knicks already vanquished the Philadelphia 76ers in laughably easy fashion.
