2023-24 Game Thread: Knicks @ Sixers (OG’s Road Opener, which is not a thing)

The Knicks head to Philadelphia for their first road game since they’ve acquired OG (well, first road game since they acquired OG in which he is playing, that is) to take on a really good Philadelphia 76ers team that will clearly try to get iHart into foul trouble right away. It’ll be interesting to see […]

2023-24 Game Thread: Knicks vs. Bulls (ABC Primetime Opener, which is kind of a thing)

The new-look Knicks are enough of a draw (and, let’s face it, nostalgia for the 1990s Knicks/Bulls series) that they have been moved to be the ABC Primetime game tonight, which is a really cool thing for the Knicks. I mean, it doesn’t really mean anything, but it’s still cool! The Bulls are playing with […]

2023-24 Game Thread: Knicks vs. Timberwolves (2024 Opener, which is kind of a thing)

Obviously, this could also be the OG Opener, but, I mean, come on, how do you pass up the first game of 2024? I apologize OG, I truly am very excited to watch you make your debut today, but, come on, 2024 opener is too hard to pass up! The new-look Knicks host the surprisingly […]

2023-24 Game Thread: Knicks @ Pacers (Post-RJ/IQ Opener, which is kind of a thing)

Hot off a stunning trade (especially since it was Leon Rose who made it, who seems to be more careful with each possible move than J. Alfred Prufrock), the Knicks have to head to Indiana to take on the Pacers without the services of RJ and IQ, but also without new additions OG, Malachi and […]

Woj Bomb: Knicks Trade for OG Anunoby

From Woj: The Toronto Raptors are finalizing a trade to send OG Anunoby to the New York Knicks for a package including RJ Barrett, Immanuel Quickley and draft considerations, sources tell ESPN. I was literally just writing a comment about Leon Rose needing to be bold, clicked “post,” and then I saw this, and fuck, […]

2023-24 Game Thread: Knicks @ Magic (Orlando Opener, not really a thing)

The Knicks head to Orlando for the second leg of this weird little road trip, to take on the surprisingly good Orlando Magic, but, well, as we all know well, early in the NBA season, there’s always a couple of teams where it’s, like, “Wait, they can’t be this good, can they?” and it’s not […]

2023-24 Game Thread: Knicks @ Thunder (Weird Road Trip Opener, Not Really a Thing)

This is a weird little road trip here, right? One Western Conference team, and then two Eastern Conference teams. Hopefully the Knicks sweep this road trip, that would be pretty freakin’ sweet, especially as all three teams are nominally “up and coming” teams that it would be nice to say, “Well, you haven’t gotten here […]

2023-24 Game Thread: Knicks vs. Bucks (Weird Back-to-Back Opener, which is not a thing)

The Knicks host the Milwaukee Bucks for the first of two straight day games against the Bucks at Madison Square Garden. It is utterly bizarre scheduling. But hey, you gotta figure they’ll win at least one of the two games this way, as, come on, they can’t lose every game they play against the Bucks! […]

2023-24 Game Thread: Knicks @ Nets (East Coast Return Opener, which is not a thing)

It’s kind of douchey having their first game back on the East Coast be on the road, right? After a successful tough West Coast trip, the Knicks have to be lookin forward to a mediocre Nets team. Let’s go, Knicks!

2023-24 Game Thread: Knicks @ Lakers (Second Straight Game in Los Angeles Opener, which is not a thing)

The Knicks remain in Los Angeles for another game to take on the Los Angeles Lakers, who are a pretty good team, but not nearly as deep as the Los Angeles Clippers, so the Knicks should have a good shot at winning this one (remember how people were giving the Clippers grief about how out […]
