Two Knicks appeared on the All-Star “Game” on Sunday. Neither won the thing, and only one made it to the final match. This is the first time all season someone involved with New York has failed to win a meaningless title. Jalen Brunson On Jeremy Sochan’s addition and what he brings: “Yeah, I’m very excited […]
The New York Knicks captured the revived Shooting Stars title Saturday night at NBA All-Star Weekend in Los Angeles, defeating three wannabe squads to claim the event’s first championship since its return to the ASW after an 11-year absence. Jalen Brunson, Karl-Anthony Towns and former Knicks All-Star Allan Houston, with the assistance of smooth passer […]
NBA All-Star Saturday, 2026 is in the books. Damian Lillard of the Portland Trail Blazers won the three-point shooting contest. The shooting stars competition was claimed by Jalen Brunson and the representatives of the New York Knicks. Keshad Johnson of the Miami Heat took the slam dunk contest. Here’s a summary of how the latter […]
It’s All-Star Weekend. Give us a break. Not really, we’ll still watch whatever happens at those events. Mike Brown On Diawara’s small details and flashes: “There’s just a lot of little things when you see Mo play that make you go, ‘Oh my gosh, wow.’ And all those things, when you add them up to […]
On Saturday, the Kia Shooting Stars competition returns after an 11-year break, and the Knicks have some dogs in the fight. The competition uses a two-round structure. In the first round, four teams compete one at a time, with 70 seconds to score points by rotating through seven designated shooting locations around the court. All […]
Last season, the Knicks were a pretty shallow team. Outside of their overly used starting five and key reserves Deuce McBride and Mitchell Robinson, they didn’t have any reliable pieces that would be ticketed for regular roles in Tom Thibodeau’s rotation. Sure, they had Cam Payne, Landry Shamet, Delon Wright, and Precious Achiuwa, who would […]
There’s never a good time to get blown out two games in a row. The Sixers are heading into the 2026 All-Star break coming off two of their worst losses of the season. They lost by 17 to the Portland Trail Blazers and followed it up with a 49-point embarrassment against the New York Knicks […]
A day after being released by the San Antonio Spurs, forward Jeremy Sochan is signing with the New York Knicks. Shams Charania of ESPN reported the news, adding that Sochan “had 10 interested suitors” for his services upon news of his release. Charania’s source was Sochan’s agent, Deirunas Visockas. Sochan played 12.8 minutes per game […]
Earlier this week, ESPN released its post-trade-deadline updated power rankings. Houston came in at the number seven spot, slipping one spot from their previously held sixth spot. This puts Houston behind the Thunder, Spurs, and Nuggets in the Western Conference and behind the Pistons, Knicks, and Celtics in the Eastern Conference. NBA.com cited Houston’s very close […]
According to Shams Charania, Jeremy Sochan intends to sign with the Knicks, turning some pre-trade-deadline chatter into an actual addition for the team. Sochan, at least from a visual standpoint, pulls off the Dennis Rodman look to a T. The hair, the tattoos, even the now former No. 10 Spurs uniform all felt like a […]
It never gets old when Knicks fans invade road arenas to root for the visiting team. On Wednesday, it happened again to the poor 76cheesteaks. José, José, José! Mike Brown On Alvarado’s fire and urgency: “His quickness, his ability to shoot the basketball, his ability to pass and make plays without getting knocked off his […]
The Sixers’ woes against the Knicks go beyond the 49-point thrashing they received on national television on Wednesday evening. They go beyond the remnants of the team’s 2024 playoff loss to New York. When the Knicks come to South Philadelphia, those issues begin before tip-off. The Sixers have a Knicks fan problem that was exacerbated […]

Two nights, two games, two different Knicks (35*-20) teams. Last night, the Knicks fell in overtime to the lowly Indiana Pacers, dropping a game that should’ve been a gimme and playing the worst defense of their season. Tonight, they travelled to Philadelphia to battle the sixth-place 76ers (30-24). With vastly improved defense, domination in the […]
No better way to rebound from a tough loss than getting a dominant win against a struggling team. After getting crushed by the Knicks on Super Bowl Sunday, the Boston Celtics took an early 20-point lead in the second quarter against the recently overhauled and undermanned Chicago Bulls and never looked back, finishing the game […]
I’m all for being checked out of work the last day before a vacation, but good lord. The shorthanded Sixers limped into the All-Star break, being blown out 138-89 by the New York Knicks Wednesday night. They go into the break 30-24, just a game up in the loss column on the Orlando Magic for […]

The Philadelphia 76ers will be shorthanded again on Wednesday night hosting the New York Knicks. After being listed as questionable throughout the day, Joel Embiid has been downgraded to out for the contest due to right knee injury management. Embiid was also sidelined for this reason on Monday when the Sixers fell to the Portland […]
Would you believe the Pacers beat the Knicks? It took overtime, but you better do. Thankfully, the break is right around the corner, but not before New York dumps the Sixers in a grand pre-ASW finale. Here’s a bunch of what was said before and after yesterday’s affair. Mike Brown On defensive execution vs Indiana: […]
In their last game before the All-Star siesta, the New York Knicks (34*-20) face the Philadelphia 76ers (30-23) tonight at Xfinity Mobile Arena. Both teams hope to bounce back from losses they’d rather erase from their records. Last night at MSG, the Knicks fell in overtime to the Indiana Pacers, due to their defense allowing […]
How will Boston respond after the Knicks defeat? Some of Boston’s best performances come after a loss. Whether it’s the team needing a loss to refocus or Joe Mazzulla fixing the issues, the Celtics rarely go on a losing streak and have a great opportunity to get back on track with the Chicago Bulls coming […]
The Philadelphia 76ers have made it back to the Eastern Standard time zone, thankfully. The Sixers are back home in South Philadelphia after a five-game roadie to host the New York Knicks on Wednesday night. The Sixers went 3-2 on their trip out West and have not played at home since the passing of the […]
The Pacers (14-40) brought a conference-worst record into Madison Square Garden tonight. They average 110 points per game, practically the worst in the league. Their hosts, the New York Knicks (34*-20), had won nine of their last ten and were climbing up the power rankings again. Games don’t get more lopsided than this. Still, somehow, […]
Tonight at Madison Square Garden, the New York Knicks (34*-19) host the Indiana Pacers (13-40). The Knicks are riding high, winning nine of their last ten tries, while the Pacers are dutifully clearing the conference drain of clogs. For tonight’s tilt, Mitchell Robinson (mgmt) and OG Anunoby (toe) will be out. With New York slated […]
The Knicks (34*-19) host the Indiana Pacers (13-40) tonight at Madison Square Garden, pitting a team from the top of the conference against one from the drain. Over their last ten contests, New York has won nine and the Hoosiers have lost seven. One fanbase is salivating about a deep postseason run; the other is […]
