Four off the floor: Key decisions for the summer Decision #1 — Should the Knicks keep D’Antoni?

April 29th, 2011 by Jim Cavan

With one year left on his contract, Mike D’Antoni’s future with the Knicks remains uncertain. While he managed to turn in the Bockers’ first winning season in a decade, the horror of the last ten years have understandably rendered Knick Nation incapable of tapping into a reserve of patience. Because there isn’t one. All indications [...]

Knicks pick up Chauncey’s option

April 27th, 2011 by Jim Cavan

The good news is that the Knicks know who their point guard will be in 2011-12. The better news is it’s also looking like Donnie Walsh will be in New York for at least two more years, although nothing official has been released. The bad news is that no less than six K-Bloggers put in [...]

For possibly the last time this season (and for the foreseeable future, depending on how labor negotiations go [Pardon me whilst I silently humm, "The Internationale."]), here’s the thread for any and all of your in-game thoughts, Knickerbloggeristas…

Recap: I Believe the Word I’m Looking for is ‘Oof’

Welp fellow Knickerbloggers, I’ll admit it. I’m stuck somewhere between maintaining my perspective, one that values baby steps, and a ‘meet the new Knicks–same as the old Knicks’ cynicism. I watched the game in Columbia with friends and colleagues at a local eatery. One charming but frustrating thing about Columbia, South Cackalack is that it [...]

April 22nd, 2011 by Thomas B.

Anthony says this is “a must win game.” I agree.  The boys have their work cut out for them. Billups will sit this one out.  Stoudemire is a game time decision. Your in game thoughts here.
