Time to stop the Bulls’ undefeated season! Sorry, the Bills/Chiefs game distracted me. Let’s go, Knicks!

The Knicks head to Chicago to take on the somehow undefeated Chicago Bulls. There is no way that the Bulls are this good (although, for their sake, it is nice that their #11 overall pick from last season is at least playing better now than he did last season), so hopefully the full-strength Knicks take […]

The Knicks head to Milwaukee to take on Giannis and a bunch of flotsam and jetsom, who are somehow 2-1, just like the Knicks. It sure would be nice to beat these guys so badly that Giannis pushes them to trade him to the Knicks, like, next week. Mitch is still out, and that is […]

The Knicks head to Miami to take on the new look Miami Heat (by “new look,” I, of course, mean the “Totally jumbled up mess of a lineup Miami Heat”). This is the Knicks’ first road game, so it’s a test in that regard, but otherwise, this Heat team is a mess (although they did […]

The Knicks host the new-look (as in “they look a lot shittier”) Celtics at the Garden, with a perfect opportunity to go from 0-8 against the Cavs and Celtics last season to 2-0 against them this season! Let’s go, Knicks! Feeling great about 58!

Ha, thought it was a primetime game. My apologies.

There’s a moment in the excellent film, The Verdict, where Paul Newman’s Frank Galvin is being consoled by his old friend and partner, Mickey Morrissey, played by Jack Warden. Their expert witness had been pretty much fully discredited, and thus the case is seemingly over (Mickey had arranged for Galvin to get the case because […]

Most of the lessons of Revenge of the Nerds are actually kind of fucked up, but there’s at least one point in the film that has a fair lesson for the New York Knicks. The part where they fix up their shitty frat house to the tune of “One Foot in Front of the Other” […]

The Knicks got the first game of the pair of games that they needed to win to make this beyond just A series, but a series that they would be primed to win, and tonight is the other pair that they need. Aaron Nesmith is playing, but you have to believe he won’t be at […]

The Knicks head to Indiana where they pretty much have to make a stand, hence the title of this post. Six teams have made 0-2 comebacks, so it CAN be done, but it has to start now. Let’s go, Knicks! 8 more wins to go! The Dylan tune is “They Killed Him,” a super-cheesy song […]
