2023-24 Game Thread: Knicks @ Suns (West Coast Good Teams Road Trip Opener, which is kind of a thing)

The Knicks head to Phoenix for the start of a stretch of them facing off against some good teams, and just like the Jazz game, the Suns have gotten healthy in time for the Knicks, with this being just the second time all season that the Suns’ “Medium-Sized Three” of Devin Booker, Bradley Beal and […]

2023-24 Game Thread: Knicks @ Jazz (West Coast Road Trip Opener, which is a thing)

The Knicks kick off their West Coast road trip with the easiest game on the whole trip, a matchup with the Utah Jazz. Annoyingly for the Knicks, Marqanon (or however his name is spelled) is back tonight, so that’s a bit more difficult than normal, but luckily, the Jazz don’t play a lick of defense, […]

2023-24 Game Thread: Knicks vs. Raptors (Jericho Sims, Knicks Starter, Opener, which is oddlly a thing)

The Knicks kick off a post-Mitchell Robinson era tonight with a game against those dreaded IP thieves, the Toronto Raptors. Jericho Sims will be taking Mitch’s spot in the starting rotation, as Thibs clearly has some strict views about roles, and he prefers iHart to remain in his bench role. Of course, iHart will get […]

2023-24 Game Thread: Knicks @ Celtics (In-Season Tournament Runner-up Stage Opener, which is oddlly a thing)

Man, the quirks of the NBA In-Season Tournament sure are, well, you know, quirky! The Knicks have to go to Boston for an extra game against the Celtics because both teams lost in the knockout stage of the In-Season Tournament. How fun. In any event, this is a chance for the Knicks to make a […]

2023-24 Game Thread: Knicks @ Bucks (In-Season Tournament Knockout Stage Opener, which is totally a thing)

After a seven week hiatus, the Knicks head to Milwaukee to take on the Bucks in the start (for them) of the NBA’s knockout stage in their In-Season Tournament. This Tournament is perfect for the Knicks, because they try to win every single game, while other teams don’t, and I think that this will give […]

2023-24 Game Thread: Knicks @ Raptors (December Opener, which is technically a thing)

The Knicks head to the Great North to take on those devious intellectual property stealers, the Toronto Raptors, who are having a very odd season to start off this year at 9-10. They’re not garbage, but they’re not good, they’re just sort of “there.” I expect Masai to make some sort of decision one way […]

2023-24 Game Thread: Knicks vs. Pistons (November Closer Opener, which is definitely not a thing)

After the Knicks were able to beat up on the shitty Hornets, they get another delightful treat, as they get to host the even worse Detroit Pistons tonight. The Pistons are just a total mess, but at least they’re paying Monty Williams gazillions of dollars to coach this mess! This better be an easy win. […]

2023-24 Game Thread: Knicks vs. Hornets (In-Season Tournament Finale Opener, kind of a thing)

The Knicks host the shitty Hornets, who are playing without their best player, in the final game of the group stage of the NBA In-Season Tournament. If the Knicks win by enough points, they’ll lock in a Wild Card spot in the In-Season Tournament. The ironic thing about that, of course, is that it means […]

2023-24 Game Thread: Knicks vs. Suns (Would Have Been Home for Durant If He Wasn’t Such a Coward Opener, which is a thing)

The Knicks host the Phoenix Suns in a game against Kevin Durant, the guy who totally was coming to the Knicks a few years back and then backed out after he got injured, and then has constantly lied about how he was never actually coming here. Come on, dude, let’s be real here. The Knicks […]

2023-24 Game Thread: Knicks vs. Heat (Black Friday Opener, kind of a thing)

The Knicks host the Miami Heat in the next game of the amazing NBA In-Season Tournament, which everyone adores (in all seriousness, I don’t even have a problem with it, per se, it’s just kind of silly) with their first chance to avenge their loss against the Heat in the NBA Playoffs. The Knicks are […]
