Knicks Officially Name Glen Grunwald General Manager

April 24th, 2012 by Brian Cronin

The Knicks have removed the “interim” tag from Glen Grunwald (the man who brought us Tyson Chandler, Jeremy Lin, JR Smith, Steve Novak and Baron Davis). He has been officially named an Executive Vice President and General Manager of the Knicks. This being decided before the season is over has to be good news for [...]

2012 Game Thread: Knicks @ Bucks

April 11th, 2012 by Brian Cronin

Since this is the current “Most Important Game of the Season,” I figured we should give it as much mojo as we possibly could. This is a game that the Knicks need to win, but moreover, this is a game that the Knicks should win. Milwaukee’s defense is not particularly good for a team with [...]

2012 Game Thread: New York v. Milwaukee

March 26th, 2012 by Brian Cronin

Now is the spring of our discontent. The Knicks suffered a major blow today when they discovered that Amar’e Stoudemire has a bulging disc in his lower back. He is currently seeking a second opinion, but conservative estimates would have him back at the beginning of the playoffs at the earliest and there is no [...]

Amar’e Stoudemire Out Indefinitely With Bulging Disc in His Lower Back

March 26th, 2012 by Brian Cronin

Alan Hahn just tweeted: Amare Stoudemire is out indefinitely after MRI revealed a bulging disk in his lower back. If you open your window, you might hear the collective groan of the entire Knick fanbase right now. Plus, for added measure, Jeremy Lin is going to miss tonight’s game with a sore knee. What’s especially [...]

2012 Game Thread: New York v. Detroit

March 24th, 2012 by Brian Cronin

I’ll actually be attending the game tonight with my wife (a Christmas present for a game back during Linsanity that I sold so we could attend multiple games for the price of the first tickets), so I figure I’d give you folks a nice and early Game Thread, just like how you like it! This [...]

2012 Trade Deadline Open Thread

March 15th, 2012 by Brian Cronin

Okay, folks, I figure it makes sense to have an open thread for today’s NBA Trade Deadline. So far, the biggest news is that Dwight Howard is, indeed, opting in for one more year in Orlando. Of course, that only means that he cannot sign with another team as a free agent this offseason. It [...]

2012 Game Thread: New York v. Portland

March 14th, 2012 by Brian Cronin

You know how “must-win game” is one of the most mis-used phrases in all of sports? That is true tonight, as well. This is not a “must-win” game. The Knicks can lose tonight and still make the playoffs. However, with Portland playing so poorly and having just gotten beaten badly last night and the Knicks [...]
