Last night, the eyes of the world were on Super Bowl LX in Santa Clara, where the Seattle Seahawks completely locked down the New England Patriots offense in an uncompetitive and rather boring affair, handing the city of Boston its second defeat of the day. With the NFL season concluding, the NHL on Olympic break, […]

In a nationally televised matinee, the Knicks (34*-19) handled business in Boston, methodically burying the Celtics (34-19). With an All-Star performance by Jalen Brunson, terrific play by rookie Mohamed Diawara, and a stellar debut by newly acquired guard Jose Alvarado, New York outshot Boston from deep (40% to 17%) and turned the ball over just […]

You can tell the Knicks are short-handed when Mike Brown, gritting his teeth, lowers his gaze upon Pacome Dadiet. The coach knows […]

In a far too early matinee, the Knicks (33*-19) face the Celtics (34-18) at TD Garden. This is a matchup of two Eastern Conference heavyweights, although the Knicks more resemble a boxer at the end of a fight—bloodied, swollen-eyed, with at least two sprained ankles. On December 2, 2025, Boston defeated New York 123-117, with […]

As we know, the Knicks […]

In the deal, they acquired point guard Jose Alvarado—a Brooklynite who’s been on their radar for a while—in exchange for wing/forward Dalen Terry (recently acquired from the Bulls in a Guerschon Yabusele swap), two second-round […]

When the Knicks pulled off the trade for Jose Alvarado, the general consensus online was that the trade was a big success. Still, some lingering detractors were concerned that adding another small guard could not only take playing time from second-year true point guard Tyler Kolek but also eat into Deuce McBride’s minutes when he […]

Jose Alvarado is no Giannis Antetokounmpo, but Jose Alvarado is a New York Knick. Alvarado might have been the most rumored target not named Giannis for the Knicks all season long, and unlike their attempt at prying Antetokounmpo, the Knicks had enough to trade for Alvarado, finally pulling the trigger hours before the trade deadline. […]

We have a trade! Leon Rose might not have had the midseason blockbuster up his sleeve (OG Anunoby) or added an impact bench player (Derrick Rose, Josh Hart), but he almost always makes a move.

Guerschon Yabusele arrived in New York this summer and had all of us kinda excited as one of only two free-agent additions made by the Knicks, along with microwave-scorer-turned-ice-cube Jordan Clarkson. Then, Yabu started to play a decreasing number of minutes and to have a lesser impact each passing day since training camp. On Tuesday, […]
