Game 15: Knicks 108, Wizards 87
Knicks and crowd just show up, and that’s plenty against the Wizards.
Amar’e Willing To Come Off The Bench, Which Will Likely Matter
So the incomparable Ian Begley had a big scoop last night, getting information that Amar’e Stoudemire is willing to come off the bench when he returns. As I’ve previously written, this isn’t a big surprise. However he feels about the move, what was he going to do, go on strike?... Read More →
Game 14: Knicks 102, Bucks 88
Knicks won with Anthony and Chandler, but dominated thanks to Prigioni and Novak.
Brewer Back, Felton Down, Kidd Out
Some Knicks news following last night’s 96-89 loss to the Nets. Ronnie Brewer will play Wednesday, with his broken finger taped. Problem is, hot shooting was a big part of Brewer’s start with the Knicks. That was bound to regress to the mean eventually, but a broken finger can only… Read More →
Game 13: Nets 96, Knicks 89
Only man who could stop Chandler and Anthony was Felton.
Tale of the Tape in Brooklyn

Game 9: Knicks 102, Hornets 80
Sometimes, teams just won’t stop Carmelo Anthony, and that will be plenty.
Battle of the Centers
For me, tonight’s matchup between the Knicks and the New Orleans Hornets will be watching Anthony Davis, the talented rookie, go up against Tyson Chandler. Davis is averaging 16 points and 8.3 rebounds per game, but he’s really been considerably above or below those averages. He has three games of… Read More →
Game 8: Knicks 88, Pacers 76
Sometimes, this Knicks defense will win games all by itself.
Game 7: Grizzlies 105, Knicks 95
Because it had to end sometime.
When Are The Knicks For Real?
There are no shortage of basketball reasons why the New York Knicks beat the San Antonio Spurs for the first time since Allan Houston had functioning knees. Raymond Felton had probably his best game as a pro. Carmelo Anthony provided a ton of value despite not scoring- arguably, he provided… Read More →
Game 6: Knicks 104, Spurs 100
The comeback shouldn’t obscure the full effort, in the most impressive win by the Knicks in many years.
