The Knicks host the Nets tonight on the heels of the Nets both A. defeating the Denver Nuggets and B. trading for James Harden in a blockbuster deal where the Nets have promised the Nets their next 27 first round picks and the first born children of Joe Harris and Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot So the Nets […]

Well, I guess having optimism about the Knicks was the bad way to handle things. Normally, I’d say, “Charlotte is another team that you’d think that the Knicks could handle,” but how about – Charlotte? No way that the Knicks can beat Charlotte! Charlotte is way out of the Knicks’ league! So there, let’s see […]
One of the things we’ve noticed early in the season is that the teams that made the playoffs and thus have had very little time off have been especially sloppy in these early games and the Nuggets are a notable example of this, especially since they just lost Michael Porter Jr. to a COVID quarantine. […]
Think about it, the Knicks are now 5-3 and this is only the second game where you can realistically say, “Oh, the Knicks SHOULD win this game.” That’s pretty awesome. Not only that, but due to the chaos involving COVID, the Knicks might be in line to win more than their fair share of games […]
From Marc Berman and Peter Botto: After discussing reunions with big men Taj Gibson and Tyson Chandler, the Knicks appear to have settled on the one with multi-team ties to coach Tom Thibodeau. The 6-foot-9 Gibson, who played for Thibodeau in Chicago and Minnesota, is expected to re-sign with the Knicks, according to a source, […]
Kind of hard to care about this game with what is going on right now (and I wouldn’t be stunned if the NBA delays some of these games), but well, here’s a thread! Bullock is out tonight, as the Knicks keep dropping like flies as they continue to win. I guess Rivers probably starts? The […]
From Greg Joyce: From the minute the Knicks hired Tom Thibodeau as their new head coach in July, their defense figured to be in for an upgrade. But there was no guarantee a tangible change — and the wins that followed — would come this quickly. The Knicks left New York on Dec. 27 fresh […]
I love the idea of road trips in the era of COVID where there are no crowds and thus home court no longer really exists. Anyhow, the Knicks head to Atlanta to take on the Atlanta Hawks, who just lost to the 4-2 Cleveland Cavaliers, whose fans at Cavalierblogger, I am sure, are also convincing […]
The starting lineup remains the same, and Burks is still out, but the big news is that Immanuel Quickley is back! Oh yeah! I’ll be fascinated in seeing who the backup point guard will be, Quickley or Rivers. They’ll both play major minutes, but who will be the lead guard? The Pacers are without TJ […]
