Knicks point guard Raymond Felton was arrested early Tuesday on three counts of criminal possession of a weapon, according to police.
The Knicks are down to 25 games remaining now, and no one needs to be reminded anymore that qualifying for the playoffs becomes a longer shot by the day with each excruciating defeat.
There are nights when Carmelo Anthony doesn’t make the big shot or the Knicks aren’t close enough for him to try to close out the game.
In an ideal Knicks world, according to Metta World Peace, Carmelo Anthony would be a more demanding superstar, Mike Woodson would stand up for himself more and James Dolan, yes that James Dolan, would one day move his baseline seat to the Knicks bench.
J.R. Smith only had a few seconds to heave the ball at the basket, after Carmelo Anthony had passed it to him on what turned out to be a key 24-second violation in the final minute of the Knicks’ last-second loss to Dallas.
Opposing players need to watch they’re wearing from head-to-toe against Knicks guard J.R. Smith. Smith already was reprimanded by the NBA for attempting to untie the shoelaces of multiple opponents earlier this season, and now he seems to be switching from toe to head.
J.R. Smith was at it again on Monday night, tugging at Vince Carter’s headband in the fourth quarter of the Knicks’ loss to the Mavericks. Carter seemed to smile after the incident, which appeared to be good-natured. But the NBA may not have the same reaction. Smith, you may remember, was fined $50,000 by the league in early January for attempting to untie two of his opponents’ shoelaces. He was later benched for one game by Knicks coach Mike Woodson for his shoelace antics.
Metta World Peace isn’t bitter about how things ended with the New York Knicks. But the veteran forward does wish he’d gotten a chance to showcase his skills. “I don’t think I was given a fair chance,” World Peace said Monday night in a phone interview with ESPNNewYork.com. “People automatically assume that I’m getting old, I think.”World Peace said he never demanded playing time or attempted to distract the team. But he’s looking forward to finding a more palatable situation with another team.
NEW YORK — Mike Woodson captured the New York Knicks’ mess of a season with four simple words late Monday night. “It’s a damn shame,” the Knicks coach said.

Once again, the Knicks wasted an incredible night from Carmelo Anthony. Anthony had 44 points, nine rebounds and four assists against Dallas.
