2020-21 Game Thread: Knicks vs. Thunder

Think about it, the Knicks are now 5-3 and this is only the second game where you can realistically say, “Oh, the Knicks SHOULD win this game.” That’s pretty awesome. Not only that, but due to the chaos involving COVID, the Knicks might be in line to win more than their fair share of games […]

NY Post: Knicks signing Taj Gibson, releasing Omari Spellman in frontcourt fix

From Marc Berman and Peter Botto: After discussing reunions with big men Taj Gibson and Tyson Chandler, the Knicks appear to have settled on the one with multi-team ties to coach Tom Thibodeau. The 6-foot-9 Gibson, who played for Thibodeau in Chicago and Minnesota, is expected to re-sign with the Knicks, according to a source, […]

2020-21 Game Thread: Knicks vs. Jazz

Kind of hard to care about this game with what is going on right now (and I wouldn’t be stunned if the NBA delays some of these games), but well, here’s a thread! Bullock is out tonight, as the Knicks keep dropping like flies as they continue to win. I guess Rivers probably starts? The […]

NY Post: Tom Thibodeau’s effect on Knicks has been drastic

From Greg Joyce: From the minute the Knicks hired Tom Thibodeau as their new head coach in July, their defense figured to be in for an upgrade. But there was no guarantee a tangible change — and the wins that followed — would come this quickly. The Knicks left New York on Dec. 27 fresh […]

2020-21 Game Thread: Knicks @ Hawks

I love the idea of road trips in the era of COVID where there are no crowds and thus home court no longer really exists. Anyhow, the Knicks head to Atlanta to take on the Atlanta Hawks, who just lost to the 4-2 Cleveland Cavaliers, whose fans at Cavalierblogger, I am sure, are also convincing […]

2020-21 Game Thread: Knicks @ Pacers

The starting lineup remains the same, and Burks is still out, but the big news is that Immanuel Quickley is back! Oh yeah! I’ll be fascinated in seeing who the backup point guard will be, Quickley or Rivers. They’ll both play major minutes, but who will be the lead guard? The Pacers are without TJ […]

2020-21 Game Thread: Knicks @ Raptors

The Knicks head to…TAMPA to play the Toronto Raptors tonight, as Canada still won’t let sports teams play in the country, so the Raptors are playing their home games in Tampa. Amusingly, Kevin Knox is from Tampa, so he gets to play at his hometown. Larry Brown would start him over Barrett. Burks and Quickley […]

2020-21 Game Thread: Knicks @ Cavaliers

After surprisingly kicking the Bucks’ ass the other night, the Knicks head to Cleveland to take on the Cleveland Cavaliers, who have started the season a surprising 3-0. We all thought that the Knicks would be 1-3 after tonight, but I think 1-3 would now be a disappointment. A .500 record through four games would […]

2020-21 Game Thread: Knicks vs. Bucks

The Knicks host the really good Milwaukee Bucks tonight at the Garden, so it is very likely that the Knicks will be 0-3 after tonight, but hey, maybe they’ll shock the world! Dennis Smith Jr. has a quad issue, so he’s out tonight. He joins Quickley (who’s day to day) and Toppin (who is out […]

2020-21 HOME OPENER Thread: Knicks vs. 76ers

As noted on Twitter earlier today, the last time that the Knicks beat the Sixers, it was the infamous Ndour game that dropped the Knicks in the lottery to the point where they got Frank instead of some of the other guys. Let’s see if the Knicks can’t get the bad taste of that win […]
