2009 Game Preview/Thread: Knicks vs. Bulls

January 19th, 2009 by Thomas B.

Happy MLK day!  [This MLK day think about sharing your time and/or resources with those in need.] New York (15-24) hosts Chicago (18-23) in the traditional MLK matinee today.

Looks like the Knicks are going to have an uphill battle scoring tonight. The Sixers rank 6th on defense.

Seven Seconds or Mess: Webisode 14

January 13th, 2009 by Gian Casimiro (7SoM)

I napped through most of last night’s game against the Hornets and woke up some time late third quarter and had this message from Mike in my inbox: Are you watching this. Are the Knicks just switching on every pick (esp. with Jeffries)? I’ve seen the Knicks do this when the opposition tries to establish [...]

Curry Finally Forced to Defend

January 13th, 2009 by Brian Cronin
