REPORT: Atlanta lands another rotation player without touching real assets
The Hawks are finalizing a trade for Aaron Wiggins, sending Oklahoma City Atlanta’s 2030 second-round pick and the less favorable of the Hawks’ and Lakers’ 2032 second-rounders. The agreement was reported late on June 21, 2026, hours after Atlanta retained CJ McCollum. Wiggins is a career 38% three-point shooter who can defend wings, attack […]
Monday Posted & Toasted Notes
Just when you think there will be nothing to write about or stories to cover, all of a sudden, you wake up, read 30-something articles, and file a 1,000-word post filled with notes. Such is life in this wonderful place. Enjoy a relatively slow Monday; we’ll be busy again on Tuesday with the NBA Draft […]
Jose Alvarado, NBA Champion
New York is the basketball capital of the world. The game wasn’t invented here, but the history of it has been woven into the fabric of life in the city. There are thousands of basketball courts across the five boroughs that some of the most iconic players to ever play the game once roamed. There’s […]
Jordan Clarkson, NBA Champion
12 years is a long time in the NBA. You have to be doing something right to stay in the league this long, especially with career earnings of over $150 million. But when you’re 11 years in with only four seasons in the playoffs, four total series victories, and just one run past the second […]
Knicks Bulletin: ‘After that, we just woke up and we never looked back’
Believe it or not, the NBA Draft is just two days away. Perks of winning the championship, I guess. Here’s the latest from across Knicks nation. Jose Alvarado On the issues with Atlanta in the first round of the playoffs: “They came out hot. They came out and played. There is a lot of pressure […]
Sunday Posted & Toasted Notes
Winning the championship made everything so good that I have been reading old P&T posts from nearly 20 years ago and rewatching early-aughts Knicks games, feeling great about it. Just imagine. This machine never stops, even on Father’s Day, so here’s the latest I’ve gathered from the interwebs. “It’s team and its grit, right? The […]
REPORT: Mitchell Robinson ‘very open’ to Knicks return
Mitchell Robinson is approaching unrestricted free agency with outside interest building, but early indications suggest the New York Knicks are in a strong position to retain their most prominent free agent and backup player. The veteran center has drawn attention from multiple teams, including the meat-lacking Los Angeles Lakers, who are widely expected to explore […]
Know the draft prospect: Alex Karaban
As we inch closer and closer to the 2026 NBA Draft, we continue our series looking at potential draft prospects. In this edition, could the Knicks take a swing at another older, two-time national champion from the Big East with their second-round pick? The Basics The Numbers Karaban grew up in Massachusetts, but only spent […]
Ariel Hukporti, NBA Champion
Over the last five years, the Knicks have only made six draft picks. They’ve routinely kicked the can down the road for future flexibility and trade pick after pick to bolster a squad that eventually went on to win an NBA championship. Four of those six draft picks came in 2024. Pacôme Dadiet was picked […]
Know the draft prospect: Felix Okpara
Depending on how the board falls, Tennessee center Felix Okpara could be available when New York is on the clock late in the 2026 NBA Draft. Should the Knicks consider him with their 55th selection? The Basics The Numbers Okpara spent four seasons carving out a clear identity as a defensive center. He began his […]
Know the draft prospect: Odega Oweh
Depending on how the board falls, Kentucky wing Otega Oweh could be available when New York is on the clock on draft night next week. Should the Knicks consider him with their 24th, 31st or 55th selection? The Basics The Numbers Oweh has taken one of the more interesting long roads in this draft class. […]
REPORT: Celtics listening on Brown, shopping for size
Jake Fischer reported early Saturday, June 20, that Boston is not actively shopping Jaylen Brown or Derrick White, but is fielding inquiries about both with greater openness than in previous offseasons. It’s a small distinction in wording, but the Celtics do seem to be building momentum toward some significant deck shuffling. A Brown trade still […]
Saturday Posted & Toasted Notes
Good morning, sweethearts. We’re going to try and launch (fingers crossed) a new column here at P&T where we aim at covering a bit of everything-Knicks and whatever else happens around the League. Fear nothing, as we will try to keep it busy but also entertaining, mixing a bit of linking with a bunch of […]
Knicks Bulletin: ‘The further we get away from it, the more real it becomes’
If you’re still on cloud nine, that’s alright. The Knicks won the NBA championship for the first time in 53 years. It’s fair to say we’re due at least 53 days of floating around the Earth without giving nothing else any care. Jalen Brunson On the Knicks championship: “The further we get away from it, […]
Mohamed Diawara, NBA Champion
A big shift that has occurred in the six years that Leon Rose has been in charge of basketball operations is one that naturally occurs when a team begins to compete. The priority shifts from development to winning now. The year that Rose and company fully shifted from the youth movement to a veteran-ladened roster […]
First of all, Jose Alvarado got to get paid
Just when we thought everything was rosy and the Knicks were on their way to never dealing with a loss for the remainder of eternity, things went south, or at least a bit southwest. First, it was James Dolan who dropped the bomb right before a historic ticker-tape parade took place in the Canyon of […]
The NBA champion New York Knicks have come a long way. How long, exactly?
Many years ago, I got jumped. Didn’t end well. Concussion. Contusions. Fractured wrist. A thumbprint on my neck, where one of them choked me. I’ve revisited the scene since. The first time I got all tingly and jumpy. Less and less ever since. It doesn’t hit the way it used to. Sometimes you can measure […]
Knicks Bulletin: ‘I swear I’m on the team, bro’
Ticker. Tape. Parade. James Dolan On the future of the Knicks: “We’re gonna keep working to bring you even better basketball. Although it’s hard to imagine that we get much better than this. But we will, right fellas?” On delivering a championship to New York City: “When I look out over the Knick fans here, […]
My experience at the first-ever Knicks’ ticker-tape championship parade
By all accounts, the city-wide celebration of the 2026 NBA champion New York Knicks down the Canyon of Heroes in downtown Manhattan was an overwhelming success. The NYPD estimated two million spectators, something that would’ve been much larger if not for the geographical limitations of a parade in New York City. It was a once-in-a-lifetime […]
Giannis to Boston is a possibility. Should the Knicks be worried?
According to ESPN, Boston has emerged as a leading destination in the Giannis Antetokounmpo sweepstakes. No deal is on the table (that we know of), but the mere possibility might raise a few concerns. Concern numero uno is obvious. Giannis is one of the handful of players capable of altering the championship picture by himself. […]
Recapping the Knicks championship parade
It’s been one hell of a week for the Knicks and their fans. From winning their first championship in 53 years ago last Saturday, to the countless media appearances earlier this week, it’s been a multi-day celebration of the team, the players, and their incredible accomplishment. And on a very hyped up cloudy Thursday morning, […]
Know the draft prospect: Zuby Ejiofor
Depending on how the board falls, St. John’s big man Zuby Ejiofor could be available when New York is on the clock on draft night next week. Should the Knicks consider him with their 24th or 31st selection? The Basics The Numbers Ejiofor became one of college basketball’s most productive frontcourt players during his final […]
June P&T mailbag: blood pressure; where the Knicks’ title ranks; what if Thibs coached the Spurs?
First mailbag in a while. First championship mailbag ever. Life is good. How high did your blood pressure spike when it actually happened? I know my answer because I have to monitor mine. — Unmitigated Gall By the fourth quarter of Game 5 my body was completely falling apart. I’m not sure I was designed […]
Tyler Kolek, NBA Champion
As P&T goes through this player-by-player tribute to the team that ended the 53-year-long title drought, we’re slowly going to be building up to the people who had the big moments and legacy-defining playoff runs. The first few players were mostly spectators throughout the playoff run, but little by little, more and more contributions will […]
