Game Thread: Knicks at Pistons, January 5, 2026
The New York Knicks (23*-12) are in Michigan this evening to face Cade Cunningham and the Eastern Conference-leading Detroit Pistons (26-9). The Pistons are tough on both ends of the floor, but they’ve been more beatable of late, losing three of their last five. Lucky for the visitors, Jalen Duren and Tobias Harris will both […]
Game Preview: Knicks at Pistons, January 5, 2026
Tonight in Michigan, the New York Knicks (23*-12) take the court at Little Caesars Arena to battle the conference-leading Detroit Pistons (26-9). On May 1, 2025, the Knicks closed out their first-round series with a Brunson bang, edging the Pistons 116–113 in Game 6 behind a dominant 40-point performance from Jalen. After leading most of […]
Knicks Bulletin: ‘The officials are the officials’
The Knicks and the Pistons are clashing tonight for the first time this season in a No. 1 vs. No. 2 showdown. Too bad the game is at Pizza Palace and not MSG. Here’s some of what’s been said in the last few hours. Mike Brown On the Knicks’ offensive identity breaking down: “It’s been […]
Knicks Week Preview: Jan. 4-10, 2026
The New York Knicks head into the week at a moment when things feel slightly unsettled. They’re still frontrunners for best of the conference, if not the league, but they’re searching for traction after a rough stretch. A tough road test, a brief return home, and a late-night stop out West will offer a clearer […]
Knicks Bulletin: ‘Everyone has a lapse’
The Knicks let another one slip and they’re now navigating a three-game skid. New York welcomed back the Twin towers but that could prevent the Sixers from snatching the win Here’s what Coach Mike and a few of those involved said before and after yesterday’s game. Mike Brown On the Knicks facing adversity: “We are […]
76ers 130, Knicks 119: Pounded in the paint
For the second time this season, the New York Knicks (23*-12) have lost three straight games. It’s too early to panic, but measured concern is completely acceptable. In tonight’s first quarter, the Knicks leaned on Jalen Brunson, while the Philadelphia 76ers (19-14) answered with Tyrese Maxey’s unfettered scoring and Joel Embiid’s interior play to take […]
Game Thread: Knicks vs. 76ers, January 3, 2026
Twenty-four hours after losing to the Atlanta Hawks, the New York Knicks (23*-11) return to the court to face the Philadelphia 76ers (18-14). It’s a rematch with a Sixers team that defeated them here in December. Last night, the Knicks played without Towns, Hart, and Robinson and shot 21% from downtown. Tonight, they should have […]
Game Preview: Knicks vs. 76ers, January 3, 2026
After spinning their wheels in the mud against the Hawks last night, the New York Knicks (23*-11) are back in action tonight, taking on the Philadelphia 76ers (18-14). The Knicks sit two games behind the Detroit Pistons in the Eastern Conference, while the Sixers rank fifth. Last night’s effort at Madison Square Garden ended in […]
Knicks Bulletin: ‘It was too late by that point’
The Knicks decided to drop the first leg of a back-to-back affair so they can beat the 76ers nicely today. What did you expect? Here’s the latest from the protagonists of Friday’s disaster. Mike Brown On the Knicks failing to defend when shots weren’t falling: “The shot’s not falling, where else are we gonna hang […]
Hawks 111, Knicks 99: Missing players, missing shots
Tonight, a shorthanded New York Knicks (23*-11) squad hosted the Atlanta Hawks (17-19). The home team played without Karl-Anthony Towns (illness), Josh Hart (ankle), and Mitchell Robinson (ankle), which was to their detriment, while the visitors played without Trae Young, which was to Atlanta’s advantage. The score was close in the first quarter, but started […]
Game Thread: Knicks vs. Hawks, January 2, 2026
The Knicks (23*-10) return to Madison Square Garden, looking to extend their dominance over the Atlanta Hawks (16-19). This is a rematch of last Saturday’s game, which New York nearly gave away down the stretch, and marks the second of their three-game season series. This time out, we don’t expect Onyeka Okongwu to make 6-of-10 […]
Game Preview: Knicks vs. Hawks, January 2, 2026
Happy New Year, P&Ters! After blowing a 19-point first-half lead to the San Antonio Spurs (who were without Victor Wembanyama for much of the fourth quarter) on New Year’s Eve, the Knicks (23-10) will look to bounce back by taking down the Atlanta Hawks (16-19) for the second time in about a week. The Hawks […]
Brunson and SGA named the NBA Players of the Month
After leading the New York Knicks to a 10-4 record and averaging 30.6 PPG, 7.1 APG, and 40.5% from deep, Jalen Brunson was an obvious choice for the Eastern Conference’s Kia NBA Player of the Month. Taking the honor in the Western Conference, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander averaged 31.4 ppg, 6.1 apg, 59.4 FG%. His Oklahoma City […]
Top 10 Knicks moments of 2025
2025 was a fun year. The Knicks played 101 total meaningful games in 2025. They went 51-31 in regular-season games and 10-8 in the postseason. When you add in the uncounted NBA Cup Final victory, the Knicks won 62 games in 2025, one of the most in recent memory (they did win more in 2024). […]
Knicks Bulletin: ‘That’s not the mentality to have’
The Knicks decided it was better to finish 2025 on a losing note, so karma balances out in 2026 and they can win the championship. One step backwards, two steps forward. Here’s some old stuff from last year. Mike Brown On Landry Shamet’s defensive value and skill set: “Shamet and McBride are our best on-ball […]
Game Thread: Knicks at Spurs, Dec. 31, 2025
Happy New Year, fans. Tonight your New York Knicks (23*-9) travel to San Antonio to face the Spurs (23-9*) to ring in 2026. It’s a rematch of the NBA Cup final, which the Knicks won by being better down the stretch. They’ll be without Mitchell Robinson and Josh Hart tonight, making this an even tougher […]
Game Preview: Knicks at Spurs, December 31, 2025
2025 has been a hectic year for the Knicks. It started in January with the rapid decline of what looked like one of the best starting lineups in the league. And as the team stumbled through much of February and March, it looked like one with little hope. But a memorable playoff run that included […]
The Knicks’ most impressive trait this season? Depth
Having the same coach for a long time means you take the good and the bad for granted. In the case of Tom Thibodeau, it meant two things in particular. First, the Knicks would come out playing their hardest every single night. No question. The guys out there on the floor would give it their […]
Is Jalen Brunson really a flopper?
Foul baiter, flopper, not ethical, unwatchable, disgusting. Jalen Brunson and his game have been called all of these things. But these opinions are voiced rarely, if ever, by people who actually watch and know basketball. These lazy and statistically false narratives are often perpetuated by those who are either salty after losing to Brunson and […]
Knicks Bulletin: ‘You’ve got to have a guy’
Against all odds and a horn “malfunction,” the Knicks still got a road dub on Monday. New York visited New Orleans and dropped the Pelicans further down their tank, beating them in a close affair. Here’s the latest from your superheroes—no, really, five of them ranked inside the Eastern Conference Top 16 in votes for […]
Knicks 130, Pelicans 125: Cap and OG outlast Zion and that fool Poole
The New York Knicks (23*-9) refuse to quit. On Saturday, they had to work hard in the fourth quarter to withstand a strong push from the Hawks.

Game Thread: Knicks at Pelicans, December 29, 2025
Tonight the Knicks (22*-9) travel to the bayou to face the Pelicans (8-25). New York is firing on all cylinders and fought off a late-game comeback to escape Atlanta with a win on Saturday. New Orleans would appreciate it if you’d attend a game and fill their empty seats. It’s no surprise that they clog […]
Game Preview: Knicks at Pelicans, December 29, 2025
For the second game in a row, the New York (K)nicks* will face off against an inferior opponent that is not only having a rough year, but also going through a tough stretch. The New Orleans Pelicans’ three-game losing streak may not be as bad as the five-game losing streak that the Atlanta Hawks carried […]
Knicks Week Preview: Dec. 28 – Jan. 3
This is a little late, folks. If the delay has caused you to not properly plan your Knicks-related TV-watching time, forgive me. I can relate to the struggle for the living room’s boob tube. ESPN.com sets the odds of me watching an entire day’s worth of the Twilight Zone marathon at 26%. Monday, Dec 29 […]
Injuries are testing the Knicks’ mettle, but they’re taking it in stride
The Knicks were among the healthiest teams in basketball last season. Most trackers rank them in the bottom ten for minutes, games, salary, and production lost due to injuries in the 2024-25 season. That is despite the unbelievable amount of strain put on them by former coach Tom Thibodeau and the team’s starters logging a […]
