Game Thread 2023-24 Knicks vs. Pacers (The Killer B’s Debut Opener, which is not really a thing)

Bojan and Burks make their Knicks debuts (well, 2024 debut for Burks, of course) as the Knicks take on the Indiana Pacers at the Garden tonight. Brunson is still a game-time decision, but let’s hope that he plays (well, unless he’s still hurt, of course, don’t want any of that playing through injury bullshit). If […]

Game Thread 2023-24 Knicks vs. Mavericks (DDV Stands Alone Opener, which is not really a thing)

The Knicks take on the Dallas Mavericks tonight with literally a single member of their normal starting rotation playing. DDV might for for 80 tonight. Now, logically, this should mean the Knicks should not win this one, but, well, have these Knicks ever been logical? So don’t be surprised if they pull this out! 53 […]

Putting it Together – The 2024 NBA Trade Deadline Discussion

There are so many different possibilities for the Knicks today that I would not be surprised by a big move, a little move, or even no move at all (okay, I’d be a bit surprised by no move at all). I think that it is clear that Rose wants to keep as much of his […]

Game Thread 2023-24 Knicks vs. Grizzlies (Street Clothes Opener, which is not really a thing)

The injury-ravaged Knicks host the injury-decimated Grizzlies at MSG tonight. The Knicks are missing some key guys, but so long as they have Brunson, they still have more guys than Memphis, so the Knicks really should win this one. How many minutes will Taj get tonight? 53 wins is still in play! Let’s go, Knicks!

Game Thread 2023-24 Knicks vs. Lakers (In-Season Tournament Revenge Opener, which is not really a thing)

The Knicks host the struggling Lakers, as the injury ravaged Knicks continue to destroy all comers. They could even lose this game and it wouldn’t even matter, that’s how amazing they’re playing right now. My 53-win prediction might be low at this point!! Let’s go, Knicks!

Game Thread 2023-24 Knicks vs. Jazz (Mitch/Randle/OG/Grimes-less opener, which is sadly a thing)

The Knicks host the Indiana Pacers tonight with a very small rotation of available players. They’re down so many players that Evan Fournier is even going to be part of the rotation tonight! Now, again, logically this should lead to a loss, especially since Hali is playing for the Pacers, but, well, this team is […]

Game Thread 2023-24 Knicks vs. Jazz (The Return of Taj opener, which is hilariously a thing)

Older Knick fans will undoubtedly remember how the Knicks kept trading Herb Williams and then resigning him when the other team cut him (the NBA literally changed the rules to disallow this super harmless thing). That’s what Taj Gibson feels like now. In any event, the Randle and OG-less Knicks take on the decent Utah […]

Game Thread 2023-24 Knicks @ Hornets (Randle-Less Knicks opener, which is sadly a thing)

The Knicks start their period of playing without star Julius Randle for at least a month with a game in Charlotte, against the awful Charlotte Hornets, who are missing LaMelo Ball, so, well, come on. The Knicks will certainly miss Randle, but they sure shouldn’t need him tonight. Now, OG ALSO being out is definitely […]

Woj Bomb: Julius Randle suffered a dislocated shoulder

After another dominating win (kicking the asses of the two NBA Finalists from last year in back-to-back games), the Knicks had a bit of a roadblock with Julius Randle suffering a late game shoulder injury. It looked like a shoulder dislocation at the time, and Woj now confirms it: New York Knicks F Julius Randle […]

The Knicks host the Miami Heat for their first meeting between the two teams since the Knicks transformed their team with the addition of OG Anunoby, giving them the exact type of player every playoff contender wants to have on their squad in the playoffs (it’s no secret that the other teams that were trying […]
