P&T pop quiz: Hypothesizing if the Knicks had lost the Finals
You have the entire class period to complete the quiz. Answers should be neatly written in the comment section. Do not fill in the “DO NOT FILL IN” section. When you’re done, you may sit quietly until the bell rings. If you have any questions, you’re in the right place. Good luck. NAME:DATE:CLASS:PROF. MIRANDA — […]
On this date in Knicks history: Knicks acquire Jamal Crawford
On August 5, 2004, the Knicks acquired Jamal Crawford and Jerome Williams from the Chicago Bulls in exchange for Othella Harrington, Frank Williams, Cezary Trybański, and Dikembe Mutombo. The Knicks were already a few years into a plague of nine-straight losing seasons when Crawford’s ship reached our shore. Those teams rarely gave you much to […]
Tyler Nickel situation emerges as Knicks shape 2026-27 roster
The New York Knicks found a couple of promising young players in the second round of the 2026 NBA Draft one day after moving entirely out of the first round to preserve some cap space and avoid stepping into second-apron territory. Both Jack Kayil and Tyler Nickel topped expectations last month during the Summer League, […]
NBA champion Trey Jemison III signs with Eastern Conference rival
Former Knicks two-way center Trey Jemison III is signing with the Toronto Raptors, per Chris Haynes. He will be getting the same two-way contract he had in New York. Jemison’s career has taken him on a bunch of different roads since going undrafted in 2023 after spending time at Clemson and UAB in a long […]
Tuesday Posted & Toasted Notes: Roses for Rosas, more ranks, some Jeremy Sochan
Another day in August means bad news for sports fans. Good news for me, it’s kinda cloudy and rainy today so I can’t complain. Links and notes below. “I’m in good shape. My finger is fine, and the operation went well. I’m back on the court and excited to start the season.” “I didn’t want […]
Knicks Front Office Member Announces Exit After 2026 NBA Championship
The New York Knicks will enter their championship defense without one of the executives who helped build their title-winning roster we all came to enjoy and love. Knicks senior vice president of basketball operations Gersson Rosas is leaving the organization after four seasons in New York. Rosas announced his departure through an Instagram post celebrating […]
The New York Knicks don’t need to be way better, but they could be
SB Nation’s Ricky O’Donnell, who along with the excellent James Dator comprise about 100% of the site’s NBA “staff,” wrote about seven teams he expects to be much improved this season. The Knicks are not one of the seven; their only mention in the piece is to say Philadelphia can match up with anyone in […]
Former Knick Guerschon Yabusele opens up about his time in New York, transition back overseas
Guerschon Yabusele will forever go down as a weird blip in Knicks history. Many years down the line, the Frenchman’s name will be brough up in trivia and reminiscing conversations, not just for his very tumultuous time as a Knick, but also for the incredibly selfless gesture he made that allowed the Knicks to acquire […]
Jeremy Sochan no longer an option after signing one-year deal with Portland
As the Knicks continue their prolonged search for a third string center, Jeremy Sochan, who came over to New York midway through last season, remained an option to fill that spot. The big man played very sparingly, appearing in only 16 regular season games. But out of all of the remaining options, his youth and […]
Why Kenny Sears matters in life
There is an active NBA player whose career is already the envy of many of his peers. This player has: By 2050, when climate and social chaos have killed off pro sports, this player will be long-forgotten. If not before. That player is not Kenny Sears, inactive from the NBA since 1964 and the mortal […]
Way-too-early look at the 2028 LA Olympics: Which Knicks will participate?
It’s been a while since an active Knick played in the Olympics. If you don’t count Evan Fournier in 2021 because he hadn’t played a game in the orange and blue yet, the last Knick to represent his country was Carmelo Anthony at the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics for Team USA, winning a gold […]
Saturday Posted & Toasted Notes: Dolan’s hopes, challenges and tiers, Dillon the Villain
For a day smacked in the middle of the summer, kicking off August, and with most definitely nothing going around, I can’t believe I got this thing to go past 850 words. Links and notes. “The 76ers’ length: The ‘Wingstop’ duo of OG Anunoby and Mikal Bridges was brought in with the Celtics’ wing duo […]
The Knicks Shooting Guard Mt. Rushmore: Elegance, Grit, and Hardware
Let’s cut right to it. Trimming down decades of Knicks basketball to four shooting guards is an agonizing task. Carving out the floor general Mt. Rushmore incited a few fierce debates. But the 2-guard spot is a whole different bag of beans. In many cases, the shooting guard position is the soul of the franchise. […]
Thursday Posted & Toasted Notes: Entitled takes, Pat Ewing’s farewell
Summer so hot and slow I swear it feels like days are going backwards and we’re getting closer to last June than we’re to flipping the calendar page to August. Here’s your dose of links and notes. “The way I look at it, is Michael is always going to be the GOAT to me, you […]
Karl-Anthony Towns and the burden of being picked first
Anthony Bennett. Greg Oden. JaMarcus Russell. Matt Bush. Alexandre Daigle. The list seems to extend to the horizon. There are few greater honors in sports than hearing your name called first on draft night. There may be no greater curse, either. When you’re the first player selected and then go belly up, the stink lasts […]
Knicks Domino Effects: What if De’Aaron Fox didn’t foul Jaden Ivey?
Well, folks. We’ve reached that part of the offseason. Aside from looking for a third center and figuring out the two-ways, there’s basically nothing for the defending champions to do aside from polish their trophy until they head to training camp in September. How do we fill this void? Personally, I like watching baseball over […]
Will the second apron cost the Knicks a second championship?
The New York Knicks are hoping to repeat as NBA champions in the upcoming season, but their job has become a little harder to repeat. While the Philadelphia 76ers are gearing up to challenge them by trading for Jaylen Brown and signing LeBron James, the Knicks are focused on figuring out their own team after […]
8 things worth playing for for the 2027 Knicks
At the turn of the century in Queen City Book Store in Buffalo, amidst dozens of X-Men-tangential series and Tom Lyle’s high-key off-key emo Adam Warlock, there was a skinny self-published-looking collection of short stories and essays called The Nihilist’s Notebook. Maybe drawings, too. The last story ends as a man opens the trunk of […]
Tuesday Posted & Toasted Notes: Future decisions, Jokic’s horse, NYC’s commute king
A lot of no-story stories going on in the middle of the summer as we patiently wait for something—anything, God please help me—to happen. Here’s today’s dose of links and notes. “I don’t even know if I could look at Mitch with a Celtics jersey on after everything. He owes me a pickup truck.” “The […]
Carving the Knicks’ Point Guard Mt. Rushmore
Let’s start this off by being completely honest about New York’s point guard history. For the better part of the last three decades, the position has been a total nightmare. The Knicks spent years wandering through a wasteland, hoping for someone competent enough to run a simple pick-and-roll or bring the ball up without causing […]
Knick Knacks: Ranking the Knicks’ 5 biggest threats for the 2027 title
I keep thinking about all the teams that don’t seem to have improved much if at all from last season. Detroit. Boston. Cleveland. Denver. Minnesota. What a weird Pangea of inertia. Then again, some teams have actually made moves. Some are better for having made those moves. Here are the handful of biggest threats to […]
Knick Knacks: Why New York won’t not repeat as champs, why Reggie Miller still sucks & why it matters
Last night was a typical Saturday night for me — playing Hades 2 for the 1300th time, catching up on X-Men ‘97, perusing basketball-reference.com — when I came across a couple of facts I feel compelled to share. Why? Because Vox pays based on a monthly quota and I woke up two articles short for […]
Saturday Posted & Toasted Notes: Looming extensions, LeStory keeps growing
Finally, the sports cycle is over, and we can rest until mid-October. Thank you, LeBron Raymone. It’s about damn time. “Jalen Brunson is going to come get all of his money. Every bit that he won’t say sacrifice. Every dollar of that what $280 or $300 that he’s supposed to get next summer, he’s going […]
Who will the Knicks face on Ring Night and Christmas?
The nice thing about being the team everyone’s chasing is that the desperation you once had is no longer there, while everyone else scrambles to match you. As the defending champions, you typically get all the works. You’re the first team to tip off the following season, at home, while you raise a banner in […]
LeBron James is a 76er. What does it mean for the Knicks?
Nothing.
