Come on, how is this a 7pm game? Anyhow, let’s just get this done. Let’s go, Knicks! 9 wins left to go! The Dylan tune is “I’ll Be Your Baby Tonight.”

The Knicks host the Boston Celtics for what now becomes the biggest game of the Knicks’ season, as a win here would put the Knicks in extremely good shape to win the series, while a loss…well, it would not put them in a particularly good position to win the series. In Game 3, the Celtics’ […]
The hard times will be for the Celtics in New York Town, as the Knicks host the Celtics after the defending NBA champs blew 20-point leads in BACK-TO-BACK playoff games for the first time in NBA history, and the Knicks are set to take a commanding 3-0 lead on the Celtics. The Garden will be […]
Well, you all know what I had to say about the first game, and the Knicks did exactly what I hoped that they would, and turned around the narrative. So now the aura of inevitability is completely gone from the Celtics, but there is still that sense that the Knicks got “lucky” in Game 1, […]
So, here’s the thing. Narratives are only written after the game. I remember in 2002, the St. Louis Cardinals dealt with the tragic loss of pitcher Darryl Kile, who died of a heart attack midseason. It was obviously a major shock, but then Kile became a rallying cry for the team. When they clinched the […]
The Knicks head to Detroit to hopefully avoid having to go back to MSG for a Game 7 on Saturday. The Pistons have lost both games in Detroit in this series, so that hopefully bodes well for the Knicks. All of the Knicks injured players are going to play, which is good news. Isaiah Stewart […]
After the Knicks tore the heart of the Pistons at the end of Game 4 in Detroit, it’s now really a question of when and not whether the Knicks take these upstarts down, and I hope the answer to that question is, “Tonight,” and I imagine that it will be tonight. Let’s go, Knicks! Just […]
The Knicks get their second game in Detroit, and a chance to break this series wide open. With the Boston Celtics struggling with health (and a bruising Orlando team that I think has probably concussed half of the Boston team), if the Knicks can wrap this series up in five games, that would give them […]
The Knicks head to Detroit, and they shouldn’t need to feel like they need to prove anything, they just need to get the job done in Detroit. Win at least one, and they’re back in control of the series, winning two would be even nicer. If they win tonight, they can pretty easily shut down […]
The Knicks have to defend home court advantage tonight against the upstart Pistons, but after running away from the Pistons in the fourth quarter of Game 1, I don’t think the Knicks are too worried about doing so tonight. Let’s go, Knicks! 15 wins left to go! The Dylan tune is “This Dream of You” […]
