Game Thread 2023-24 Knicks vs. Nuggets (Defending Champs MSG opener, which is a thing)

The Knicks host the defending NBA champion Denver Nuggets, who are in a bit of a rut, and are ending a long road trip tonight, so they are prime to be picked off, but the Knicks will be without iHart, so that’s scary. Just do what you always do, Knicks, play hard and never give […]

Game Thread 2023-24 Knicks @ Nets (Precious starting center opener, which is maybe a thing)

The Knicks head to Brooklyn to take on the very disappointingly bad Brooklyn Nets. I didn’t think the Nets would be good, per se, this season, but I didn’t think they’d be so actively bad. One of the biggest problems has been Mikal Bridges, to the point where I wonder if the dude is hurt […]

Game Thread 2023-24 Knicks vs. Raptors (RJ and IQ Return to NY Opener, which is kind of a thing)

The Raptors traded away Pascal Siakam, so that makes this game less concerning, but hey, you know that RJ and IQ will be trying their best tonight, so hopefully that doesn’t cause problems for the Knicks tonight. It’d be nice if the Knicks could get a comfortable win so that OG can only play, like, […]

Game Thread 2023-24 Knicks vs. Wizards (OG 48 Minute Challenge Opener, which is not a thing)

The Knicks host the awful Washington Wizards tonight, with Josh Hart missing the game. Can OG play 48 minutes? Let us find out (you would hope that the Knicks would be up so big that OG could rest the end of the game, but we shall see)! Let’s go, Knicks!

Game Thread 2023-24 Knicks vs. Rockets (1994 Finals Revenge Opener, which is not a thing)

I remember the Knicks and the Rockets playing a close game at MSG in February 1995 that the Knicks won (after the Knicks had previously crushed them in their first meeting of the 1994-95 season in January in Houston) and that, to me, was actually somewhat of a big deal following the Rockets defeating the […]

Game Thread 2023-24 Knicks vs. Magic (Martin Luther King Day opener, which is a thing)

The Knicks host the upstart Orlando Magic in an afternoon game celebrating MLK Day. I’m still waiting for the swirlies! Now that OG is here, I fully expect swirlies! How is 53 wins looking? Still very possible! Let’s go, Knicks!

Game Thread 2023-24 Knicks @ Grizzlies (What’s left of them opener, which is not a thing)

Tonight, the Knicks head to Memphis for the second leg of this weird mini-road trip, where they will have no chance whatsoever of losing against the decaying husk of the Memphis Grizzlies. This will help on the road back to my 53 win projection! Let’s go, Knicks!

2023-24 Game Thread – Knicks @ Mavericks (Luka-Less Opener, which is not a thing)

The Knicks start a mini-road trip that just got TREMEDNDOUSLY easier with Luka Doncic missing tonight’s game against Dallas, and Ja Morant being out for the year ahead of the Memphis game (what a weird, weird season for Ja Morant and the Grizzlies). While Kyrie Irving is obviously also a good player, well, come on, […]

2023-24 Game Thread: Knicks vs. Trailblazers (Future Knick Malcolm Brogdon Opener, which is not a thing)

The Knicks host the shitty Trailblazers, thus allowing them to get a good look at possible future Knick, Malcolm Brogdon, as they kick Portland’s collective ass. The 53 win tracker is so close to returning… Let’s go, Knicks!
