2022-23 Game Thread: Knicks @ Heat – Eight Days a Week?

The Knicks head to South Beach to take on the Heat as the Knickerbockers both try to knock the Heat out of any real possibility of getting the #5 seed, while also A. trying to win their eighth straight game and B. trying to inch closer to taking the #4 seed from the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The Knicks’ recent play has led to the return of the 49-win tracker!

Are the Knicks on track to win 49 games? I think they have a very good shot at it now, really. They’ll need 12 wins. They can totally do that, especially if they keep winning seven games in a row like this.

Let’s go, Knicks!

2022-23 Game Thread: Knicks vs. Nets – Seven Nation Army?

The Knicks host the freefalling Brooklyn Nets tonight after probably their best win of the season while kicking the Celtics’ ass on Monday.

A win tonight, on top of being seven in a row, would also really solidify the #5 seed for the Knicks, which would be swell.

Let’s go, Knicks!

2022-23…What Do We Call This Thing Again? Game Thread? It’s Been So Long – Knicks @ Wizards

Holy shit, people, it’s been way too fucking long between Knicks games. It feels like the All-Star break lasted a month this year. That’s good for Mitch’s recovery, though, at least, and he’s actually listed as just “Questionable” tonight, which is amazing. The Wizards upgraded Bradley Beal from questionable to active, and Robinson is still a gametime decision, but I think there’s a decent chance he goes tonight. EDITED TO ADD: Mitch is starting! WOOHOO! Let the good times roll!

So let’s hope the Knicks open the second half by kicking some Wizard ass, and continue to make a major move on the #5 seed and solidify the “Don’t have to play in the play-in game” seed, at the very least.

I’m so happy that Mitch is back.

Let’s go, Knicks!

2022-23 Game Thread: Knicks @ Hawks – Time to Finish the First Half With a Major Statement Game

As you have no doubt noticed, even as the Nets are freefalling from the #5 seed, the back end of the Eastern Conference suddenly looks feisty as fuck. The Hawks are two back of the Knicks in the loss column, the Wizards are three games back in the loss column and the Raptors and Bulls are four games back in the loss column. That is annoying.

So if the Knicks could just defeat the Hawks in Atlanta tonight to finish out a pretty darn fun first half, I would really appreciate it.

Then Mitch can get back, and the Knicks defense can stop sucking, and then they can really go on a run in the second half. That #5 seed is very much in play!

Let’s go, Knicks!

2022-23 Game Thread: Knicks vs. Nets – No More Durant, Hopefully No More Losses to the Nets

The Knicks host the Nets as part of a big two games heading into the All Star break. The Knicks need to make a push to get the #6 seed, and they play both the current #5 seed, the now-Durant-less Nets, as well as the current #8 seed, the surging Atlanta Hawks. A win tonight would be huge (as well would the Hawks game). Heading into the All-Star break 33-27 would be outstanding.

The Knicks have not beaten the Nets since the Nets signed Durant, nine straight losses, but the Nets no longer have that warlock Durant on the team, so his magical spell should be broken, and the Knicks should be able to take this one against a Nets team that got edged out by the Sixers on Saturday (with the Nets throwing up so many bricks you could build an outhouse to house all of those shitty shots), but seem to mostly be playing a bit over their head.

Let’s go, Knicks!
