Does anybody else think Cleanthony Early is the son of one of the cast members of “Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids”? I was thinking maybe Weird Harold.

What made that so glorious was that we won it AND the entire city loved that team and the way it played.
@Stratomatic – It was the BEST! (I figured you were around my age. Do people even play Stratomatic anymore? (I did football Strat)
DRed
Cole is terrible.
DRed
At the start of the season we were way over the luxury cap, had 2 of the top 4 highest paid players in the NBA, and now we’re the worst team on the league and an undrafted rookie is probably the best player in our starting lineup. What a fucking shitshow
Thomas B. Post author
Cole is terrible.
Give the guy a break. He’s been trying to catch his breath since game 4.
Schved has the look of Robbie Benson in One On One and the basketball ability of Robbie Benson in real life.
DRed
Has Schved ever even seen a weight? He’s built like a HS player
stratomatic
It’s hard for me to imagine this team winning another game this season. As is stands now, this has to be the worst NBA team ever.
DRed
Drummond is a monster
MSA
Knicks players with a TS% over .540:
Stoudemire and Prigioni
Oh wait! The are not Knicks players anymore!
DRed
The defense is okay sometimes, but I have trouble imagining a more offensively inept NBA team.
stratomatic
Why doesn’t Acy get any run?
Zanzibar
Joseph + Middleton > Monroe + Jackson……and cheaper too!!
Zanzibar
Schved > Reggie Jackson
Towns >> Okafor
DRed
The Westies are also in last place, so there’s that. Anyone know why Thanasis missed the last couple games?
DRed
Y’all missing the comeback, haters
DRed
These lunatics just doubled Schved
DRed
THROW IT DOWN BIG BARGS
DRed
Greg Monroe literally cant stop Bargnani. And you want to be my max free agent.
Owen
I find the idea of paying Monroe max money repugnant. But hey, Melo got it…
Turning the game on finally. Don’t mess with me Knicks.
DRed
Talking Friday night knicks on msg, leagues worst team, do it just for okafor
Zanzibar
Calderon’s injury might be a blessing in disguise because it forces Fish to play Shved at the 1. There’s a HUGE difference in his stats when he plays the 1 versus the 2. He’s an abysmal shooter but he’s elite at getting to the line and he’s also a skilled passer. He may very well end up being a bust, but at least we will have given him the opportunity to succeed at his most promising position. Our crack #28 analytics department never would have figured this out had Calderon still been healthy….to be fair it’s not the department that’s the problem, it’s Fish and Phil.
DRed
No Melo, no Stat, no Jose, limited Timmy, and somehow we don’t suck on defense.
J Smith couldn’t stop Drummond with a baseball bat though
DRed
JR + Shump 14-34 tonight with no LBJ.
DRed
We are legitimately playing good defense.
Owen
That’s more like it….
Good to see Fish contributing directly to tankapalooza
DRed
Drummond. Straight monster.
DRed
He did foul the shit out of Galloway though.
DRed
Bargs out here clowning Greg Monroe
Zanzibar
If Bargs’ only accomplishment as a Knick will have been to prevent Phil from signing Monroe, then Bargs’ deal will have been worth it.
DRed
Oooooooohhhh

Big Clutch trey from Galloway!

Also shocking to see us force a bad shot at the buzzer

Bargs getting max money to return to NY after tonight’s game.

Langston just got hit by a bus

Galloway should pay a hefty fine for that game tying shot, he better make up for it with a shitty overtime.

Galloway has some balls. Thomas gotta make that putback

Jason Smith you suck at basketball

Clutch shooting by Jason Smith.

This is the biggest OT game between the Knicks and Pistons since Game 3 of the 1992 playoffs.
DRed
Cole 3 ftw

Timmy tries winning shot and makes no effort to rebound
Brian Cronin
Last double overtime game since the classic moment last season when Chandler dunked the ball on his own head, thus negating the basket.
Brian Cronin
When you let Jason Smith do that to you, you done screwed up.
DRed
I want no part of Reggie Jackson
Brian Cronin
I love when Clyde gets disgusted by poor fundamentals.
Brian Cronin
I want no part of Reggie Jackson
What I don’t get is why Phil Jackson event wants him. He is not a Triangle-type point.
Brian Cronin
Again, I love when Clyde gets disgusted by poor fundamentals. Smith helping the tank! Amundson not helping!
Brian Cronin
Amundson should at least be getting another NBA deal out of his recent play.
Brian Cronin
Monroe hurting the tank. But Philly won, so I’m cool with this possible win. Larkin tanked that three.
DRed
Yeah, Amundson is an NBA player.
richmond
Reggie helping Knicks win
DRed
Oh bullshit
Brian Cronin
Wow, what a shot by Larkin!
DRed
Sugar Shane!
Brian Cronin
Yeah, Amundson is an NBA player.
I think that’s likely all he’s hoping for at this point in his career. Just keeping getting ‘dem checks, as they say.
DRed
This is a nice win. Don’t want too many more, but I enjoyed this one. Fish at least got them still playing hard
richmond
Amundson works hard, will always get a roster spot.. and Bargs with 25 points, 12 rebounds.. should have had that before trade deadline
johnlocke
Game, Blouses!
Who is this Barnyarni guy? New rookie signing? He looks good!
DRed
Don Pablo with 5 dimes and 2 steals in 12 minutes tonight.
“He needs to foul out on that play”
Clyde the GOAT
Nick C.
“What are you doing man?” Clyde rocks.
d-mar
You think Toronto would give us our draft pick back for Bargnani?
DRed
Rockets fans were very negative on twitter about Pablo at the trade deadline, and they love him already. I miss that guy
BigBlueAL
This could be the turning point of the season!! Actually I was rooting for them to win once it got to OT and Im glad they did. They arent going to win many more so let them enjoy the few they do win, they deserve it after the effort they showed tonight.
Brian Cronin
Once Philly won, I was totally fine with the win. They deserved it.
nicos
Amundson shows just how much value a mobile big can have on both sides of the ball. Amundson>Cole, Towns>Okafor.
DRed
If Okafor can learn to shoot FTs his defense might not matter. He’s such a weird player I’d probably lean Towns, but its close
GoNyGoNYGo
This win was so sad.
I’m listening to the players being interviewed. One after the other they’re either thanking God or saying how unbelievable the win was. Yikes. It’s as if they hadn’t won a game in a month!
Brian Cronin
I was just playing around with the ESPN lottery machine and ugh, waaaaaaaaay too many times does it have the Knicks ending up with Mudiay. One time even picking him over Towns!!
DRed
I’d happily take Russell 3rd 4th or (shudder) 5th, but the draft is to big heavy for me to want to chance Mudiay
Brian Cronin
Yeah, I dunno why ESPN thinks the Knicks will take Mudiay over Russell.
By the way, Jackson apparently is going to be fined for commenting about how Russell is a great prospect.
Brian Cronin
The Lakers really need to start buying guys out. Three wins in a row is ridiculous when they lose their draft pick if they fall outside of the top five of the lottery (they’re currently fourth). Can you imagine if the Sixers get the #1 pick and the #6 pick?!?!
yellowboy90
Instead of the Lee trade Frank suggested yesterday, I wonder if Portland would trade Batum to keep Matthews and Lopez since they have Afflalo now. Depending on what Matthews, Lopez, and Aldridge get they could be really over the Tax line. They also will max out Lillard the following summer when Batum contract is up so it could be a now or later situation.
Brian Cronin
The problem is that Afflalo has a player option for next season that he’s likely to decline, so he’ll likely be a free agent, as well.
Donnie Walsh
I guess somebody finally got around to telling Bargnani that this is a contract year, huh?
stratomatic
Why all the Monroe hate?
Sure he had a tough time with Bargnani, but Bargs has always been a nightmare matchup for traditional PFs and Cs teh entire time. It just rarely matters much because Bargs can translate it into high efficiency scoring on a consistent basis. Do I think Monroe is a max player? No. But he’s a VERY good player.
yellowboy90
The problem is that Afflalo has a player option for next season that he’s likely to decline, so he’ll likely be a free agent, as well.
You think so? I would think he would wait a year when everyone has space. A contending team would even spend a good chunk of their space on him when the cap goes up.
However, if does opt out he would still be cheaper than Batum going forward.
Batum has always been in trade rumors but maybe they keep him and wait until next years deadline. If he does come available I hope the Knicks try to jump and get him.
