The past two playoffs, the Knicks lost to the Pacers despite Jalen Brunson’s heroics. Tonight the Knicks beat beat them 136-110 despite Brunson’s absence due to ankle and cervical owies. Interviewed after the final buzzer, Josh Hart said he was able to have a big scoring night because Brunson wasn’t around to hog the ball. […]
The Knicks (44*-25) return home to face the struggling Pacers (15-53), who enter on a 13-game losing streak. New York beat them just days ago behind big showings from Jalen Brunson, Mitchell Robinson, and OG Anunoby. Indiana has been one of the league’s worst teams on both ends and is dealing with major injuries. As […]
The 44-25 Knicks host the 15-53 Pacers on Tuesday. If you’re a casual fan, you’ll skip this one. If you know the New York-Indy history and the no-tanking-against-NY policy of the Pacers, you’ll be glued to your streaming device of preference. Here’s the latest from your superheroes. Mike Brown On relying on comebacks to win […]
If you received a snapshot of a certain timestamp in almost every single Knicks game since the all-star break, you’d think the team was in the midst of another January collapse that would have them plummeting towards the play-in tournament and have Mike Brown receiving his pink slip: Trailed 93-75 with 10:50 left in the […]
With just 13 games left to go in the regular season, it’s go time for the New York Knicks. The boys in orange and blue have won their last three outings, and after a lengthy west coast road trip, should be excited to stick around the eastern time zone for their next few games. As […]
They’re back at it again. Thankfully, for the fourth and final time this season, the Knicks (44*-25) will face the Pacers (15-53). Just two games ago, New York had to extert more effort than expected to knock of these cellar dwellers in Indiana. Tonight, they take the floor at Madison Square Garden in the first […]
The NBA draft is still months away, but it’s never too early to start to get a head start on watching the prospects and seeing what could be the next rookie to don a Knicks jersey. And with the NCAA Tournament tipping off Tuesday night, it’s the perfect time to go over some of the […]
Jalen Brunson will be a question mark when the Knicks (44*-25) face the Indiana Pacers (15-53) on Tuesday night at Madison Square Garden. Brunson, who is dealing with a right ankle sprain and cervical strain (neck), is listed as questionable on the injury report (per Stefan Bondy). In addition, Miles McBride remains out while recovering […]
There have been murmurs for a few years now that the NBA has been considering an expansion from the current 30 teams to 32 teams. While nothing has been confirmed yet, Shams Charania of ESPN reported on Monday morning that the league has decided to hold a vote at the Board of Governors meetings later […]
You can’t talk with Jose Alvarado for 15 minutes and not be charmed. Last Thursday, I had the opportunity to chat with the new Knickerbocker and the same exuberance he brings to the court came through our Zoom screen. One of my favorite moments of the season was when Alvarado scored his first basket as […]
For some reason, the Knicks have decided to play down to the level of their opponents. Nearly lost in Indianapolis. Damningly close to dropping one to a G League-like Warriors. Will it finally happen when the Pacers visit MSG on Tuesday? Here’s what the protagonists had to say, including Steve Kerr. Mike Brown On whether […]

The Warriors (32-35) entered Madison Square Garden with eight rotational players sidelined by injury, including Stephen Curry, Draymond Green, Kristaps Porzingis, and Jimmy Butler. The Knicks (44*-25) were playing their first home contest after a five-game road trip and even though their last two games were unconvincing wins against lesser opponents, we figured tonight’s tilt […]
The New York Knicks (43*-25) host the Golden State Warriors (32-34) tonight at Madison Square Garden. The visitors are decimated by injuries, so look for the Knicks to take it easy tonight. You can safely flip back and forth from the Oscars. Tonight’s tip off is 8 p.m. EST on NBC and Peacock. This is […]
The NBA play-in tournament is less than a month away, making every game count. With that, we’ve decided to give you, the fans, a watching guide. We’ll post weekly updates so you know exactly which non-Knicks team you should be rooting for and against during the home stretch of the season, with a deep postseason […]
The New York Knicks (43*-25) host the Golden State Warriors (32-34) tonight at Madison Square Garden. Tipoff is at 8 p.m., the game is on NBC. The Knicks are fighting to hold their spot in the East’s top three and remain a game and a half behind Boston, while the Warriors are clinging to a […]
Greetings from the greater Boston area. Your intrepid blogger is deep behind enemy lines because young Rowan competed in a karate tournament here (and took gold for his form demonstration, woot!). I’m wearing my Knicks gear proudly to the dismay of these green-gilled goons. As for the Knicks this week, they should run the table. […]
Of course, Indiana had to mess with New York. Of course, the Knicks beat the Pacers. Here’s the latest from those who did and did not play on Friday. Mike Brown On Mitchell Robinson’s load management paying off: “It’s obviously shown that it’s paid off, because of his ability to, knock on wood, stay on […]
Gainbridge Fieldhouse is a house of horrors for the Knicks. There are other places, namely Utah and Los Angeles lately, that have given the Knicks’ fits, but there’s no place that just hurts more to play at than Indianapolis. The Pacers (15-52) are trying to lose. They’ve load-managed as many players as humanly possible for […]
The Knicks (42*-25) visit the Indiana Pacers (15-51) tonight at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. New York is favored by A LOT because Indy has the league’s worst record and generally stinks. Yet do not be fooled by their extensive injury list (Siakam, Nesmith, McConnell, Toppin, and Jackson are all OUT) nor tempted by hubris, Knickerbockers. Coach Rick […]
Over the last three and a half seasons, Jalen Brunson has become one of the premier players in the league. He’s a three-time All-Star who has made the All-NBA Second Team twice, is constantly heralded as one of the best scorers in the league, and he’s coming off a Clutch Player of the Year Award. […]
The Knicks (42*-25) conclude a five-game road trip tonight against the 15-50 Indiana Pacers at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. Currently, their four-game season series stands tied at one win apiece. The Knicks, coming off a shaky victory in Utah, have won six of their last ten games; Indy lost to the Suns last night and have dropped […]
I started to watch Wednesday’s game and thought about quitting for a minute. Only then did I realize we had Jordan Clarkson sitting on the bench, so it was just a matter of time for the Knicks to flip the script. Here’s the latest from your superheroes in a JC-heavy chapter of the bulletin. Mike […]
Tuesday night was fascinating for me as a sports fan. I started my night by watching my college’s depressingly bad basketball team lose to Northwestern to end its season in the Big Ten tournament, then switched the channel to watch Team USA lose in embarrassing fashion to Italy in the World Baseball Classic. At the […]
This was supposed to be a get-right game. After losing twice in Los Angeles, the Knicks (42*-25) had a golden opportunity to flex their muscles against the Western Conference’s second-worst team, the Jazz (20-46). Instead, a poor defensive effort let Utah hit nearly everything from downtown in the first half (14 threes) and New York […]
