Former Knick Danilo Gallinari “taking” the locker room interview to a whole new level:

Much like how New York played during the 2010-11 regular season — from quarter-to-quarter and game-to-game — the playoff version of the Knicks’ demise was appropriately comprised of fits and starts, breakthroughs and collapses, and the ever-present ifs and buts. The flawed franchise — with its flawed owner, flawed coach,... Read More →

This image pretty much sums up how things went for the Knickerbockers against the Celtics last night — Carmelo unable to escape Boston’s suffocation, and Mike D’Antoni left to helplessly watch his inept and/or inferior club get annihilated by the opposition. When I sat down this morning to sum up… Read More →

The Knicks got absolutely waxed tonight in all phases of the game. They now find themselves in an 0-3 hole, and despite an entertaining season, things look beyond bleak as far as this series against the Celtics goes. More to come tomorrow…

Criticism of the Knicks, mainly for their lack of defense and toughness, is widespread. Thankfully, it just so happens that one of the franchise’s most beloved former players knows a thing or two about both — and the “Oakman” was gracious enough to speak with me about the Knicks, the… Read More →

Let me begin by stating the obvious; losses don’t get much tougher than last night’s crushing Knick defeat in Boston. Well, unless you were a Yankee fan in 2004, but that’s neither here nor there. It was a letdown of epic proportions — a failure to seize karmic reigns that… Read More →

“I think they can do it.” – Walt Clyde Frazier post-game, on Knicks’ ability to come back from 0-2 down in their best of seven series against the Boston Celtics. I wholeheartedly agree. More to come later. My present state of mind akin to that of a deep-sea diver resurfacing… Read More →

It goes without saying that the Knicks need to win at least one game in Boston to win their series against the Celtics, but the chances of them winning a Game 7 on the road would seem miniscule at best. Heck, should a Game 5 in the 2-2-1-1-1 format be… Read More →

Pretty much the greatest thing ever. Other than our exclusive with @NotWaltFrazier.

Well that sucked. Despite a stupendous first-half performance by the Knickerbockers, a combination of horrendous officiating, puzzling in-game strategy, and a lack of focus in the fourth quarter led to a demoralizing loss to the Celtics in Boston last night. So what went right? Amar’e. The man was an absolute… Read More →

It’s obviously very early in the Knicks-Celtics series, but the conventional wisdom has been that unless New York completely implodes in the playoffs — getting swept while playing listlessly — Mike D’Antoni’s job as coach will be safe for next season. Well, not to quote Dubya (unless you’re watching this… Read More →

I will leave it for someone else to provide the game recap beyond what’s staring you in the face above, but rest assured that tomorrow will bring a full description of what went wrong — and a few things what went right — plus what the Knicks will need to… Read More →

The time for talk is over. Technically, the time for writing is just about over too — as far as predictions go — but when it came to picking a winner of the Knicks – Celtics series starting tonight, I needed every last moment. Here’s how I see the series… Read More →

The Knicks’ first-round playoff opponent is set — an opponent we were a proponent of — and this Sunday in Boston, we’re going to find out just how good this New York team really is. The positional match-up breakdown (mercifully) concludes today, this time at center, in an attempt to… Read More →
