Reader “Cliff” characterized yesterday’s Darko for Q-Rich trade as a stiff for a stiff. I think he’s mostly right.

Q’s body is a lot older than his 29 years. His back is collapsing in front of our eyes. Last year he played 72 games, which isn’t terrible, until you remember that he hadn’t played more than [...]

As I wrote in my story, I don’t believe that the Knicks got their man tonight. I think they wanted Stephen Curry badly. Not to say that they hate Jordan Hill. I think Donnie Walsh was being half honest when he said he couldn’t lose with either of them. But if given a choice I [...]

The last few trade deadlines in the NBA have been boring and anticlimactic. At least draft day isn’t following suit.

The major trades keep on coming as we speed toward the first pick. The latest is Vince Carter going to Eastern conference champion Orlando in exchange for Courtney Lee, Rafer Alston, and Tony Battie. This takes [...]

So far the Knicks have not made a move from their No. 8 slot. If they stay there here are the players they’d like to [...]

Hi all. This is Jake Thomases. I’ll be taking you through draft night tonight direct from the Knick war room in Greenburgh. Well, actually from the media room next to the war room. No warring in here. But it’s as close as we’re gonna get.

I know this blog has lost most of its audience in [...]
