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 […]
The New York Knicks (41*-25) face the Utah Jazz (20-45) tonight at Delta Center in Salt Lake City. Josh Hart is OUT for New York with left knee soreness, while Utah is missing Lauri Markkanen (hip), Walker Kessler (shoulder), Jusuf Nurkic (nose), and Jaren Jackson Jr. (knee), and lists Keyonte George as questionable (illness). Tip […]
Nuggets, Pistons, Celtics, Rockets, Cavaliers, Spurs, Raptors, Thunder and Lakers. Those are some of the teams the Knicks have played since February. New York has gone against the Wizards, Pacers, Bulls, and the Bucks—all of those matchups sandwiched in between the aforementioned ones—but for the most part, the Knicks have had test after test over […]
The Knicks (41*-25) visit the Utah Jazz (20-45) tonight at Delta Center in Salt Lake City tonight. New York aims to maintain their position near the top of the East while the Jazz continue to fight for the worst record in the West. Over their last ten games, the Knicks have gone 6-4while the Jazz […]
History was made yesterday, and it was made in the most bizarre of ways. Didn’t involve the Knicks, but it surely did involve a bunch of shaddy fouling, freebies… and #HeatCulture, amirite? New York is playing the Jazz tonight. Who says Landry Shamet cannot hit 130 on the dot? Anyway, here’s the latest from our […]
It’s over. The Knicks have finally completed the final gauntlet on their regular-season schedule. Beginning on February 4 with a double-overtime victory against Denver, the Knicks played 16 games, with 12 against teams in playoff position. The 34-day stretch saw the team face Detroit and Denver twice, San Antonio, Boston, Cleveland, Philly, Houston, Toronto, and […]
The Knicks flew to LA, and they made sure to make it look like Hollywood lights don’t translate to winning nights—for New York, at least. The Knickerbockers will remain on the road for a couple more games, yet they will surely get a break as Utah and Indy come up next. Here’s the latest from […]
With last night’s 126–118 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers, their second straight defeat, and the Cleveland Cavaliers beating the Philadelphia 76ers 115–101, the cushion the New York Knicks once had in the standings is suddenly very thin. New York now holds just a half-game lead over Cleveland for the No. 3 seed in the […]
Still smarting from the previous day’s drubbing by the Lakers, the Knicks (41*-25) bounced over to the Intuit Dome to challenge the LA Clippers (32-32). Redemption was not in the cards, however. The visitors spent most of the night digging out of holes they had dug themselves. 20 turnovers, cold shooting, and long Clippers runs […]
After yesterday’s stinker against the Lakers, the Knicks (41*-24) get an LA mulligan against the Clippers (31-32) at the Intuit Dome. LA has gone 25-11 after a 6-21 start, powered by Kawhi Leonard’s monster year (27.9 PPG). Fatigue could be a concern for our heroes in this one, especially for Cap, who logged 42 minutes […]

Over their last ten games, both New York and the Clips have gone 6-4. They last met on January 7, when the ‘Bockers won […]

Sunday. Matinee game. Loss. Against the LA Lakers to put the cherry on top. Here’s a whole lot of stuff said in frustration before the Knicks cross the street to face the Clips. Mike Brown On turnovers, low free throws, and losing the offensive board battle being a recipe for disaster: “18 turnovers, 30 free […]

The Knicks (41*–23) visit the Lakers (38–25) at Crypto.com Arena in a nationally televised tilt. Los Angeles ranks middle-of-the-pack on both ends (12th in offense, 15th in defense) and is powered by Luka Dončić (32.5 PPG), Austin Reaves (23.5 PPG), and LeBron James (GTD, elbow). Favored to win, the Knicks will look to exploit the […]

Say, whatever happened to those Knicks that were a disgrace to basketball during a 2-9 stretch, which saw them play some of the worst defense the NBA has ever seen? Wait, what do you mean that team has now been the best defense in basketball for six weeks? It’s been a weird year. The Knicks […]
