New York Knicks: Posting and Toasting Blog Articles
Posting and Toasting (New York Basketball Observer) —
“I came all the way from Serbia and all I got was this lousy stat line.” Okay, so Ognjen Jaramaz didn’t exactly fill up the stat sheet in June’s Summer League, but there was still a lot to take in from the Serbian-born 21-year-old. Although he played only about 12 minutes per game, Jaramaz did plenty on the floor to give Knicks fans some insight into what he does well and what he may need to...

Ron was the first Knicks free agent signing to be announced, but the last to sign. The New York Knicks finally made official the signings of second-round pick Damyean Dotson and free agent returnee Ron Baker on Monday. Behold the contract-signing photos! Note: I must warn you, they aren’t using the tiny table. Baker is in Kansas at the moment, I think, so he signed on some regular-ass...

Michelle Obama’s brother, not the guy from Hot Tub Time Machine. The Knicks have hired Craig Robinson to join their front office. This is just sooooo typical Knicks . The guy stars in an incredibly successful sitcom and a number of hit comedy films, and you hand him a job in the front office of an NBA team?! I bet he’s probably a CAA client too! Frank Isola told me he knows Irving...

or: How Chris Smith helped launch an NBA career! Tom Thibodeau. Steve Clifford. Kenny Atkinson. It’s no secret that Knicks assistant coaches often go on to accept head coaching jobs later in their career, some with great success. But there’s another up-and-coming former Knicks coach who has been turning heads in the personal trainer game: Chris Buckley, who works out the likes of Kevin...

Much unicorning! Did you miss watching Kristaps Porzingis play basketball? If you answered “no” then get the hell off this website! Our beloved Unicorn eschewed his regular offseason program of lifting weights and Instgramming it so that he could join his spiritual basketball father Dirk Nowitzki (among others) in the NBA’s 2017 Africa Game, which went down Saturday in South Africa. The...

That’s one way to go, I guess. The New York Knicks are still filling out the periphery of their roster as they await a possible Carmelo Anthony trade, and they may be looking to add a familiar face. Per Ian Begley: The Knicks are among several teams in touch with free agent big man Marshall Plumlee, per league sources. New York waived Plumlee last month to create cap space to sign...

Is this sports? Ah, the story no Knicks fan ever wanted to write might finally be coming to an end. We hope. All-time franchise great Charles Oakley finally settled in court on charges stemming from the now infamous Feb. 8 incident, when the longtime power forward was forcibly ejected from MSG following a confrontation with security during a nationally-televised Knicks game (in hindsight,...

Cool! Let’s all act like professionals! Following the completion of The Basketball Tournament final, an event which he helped bring to his native Baltimore, Knicks forward Carmelo Anthony sat down with Scott Van Pelt to talk about his future. Let me just start off by saying that growing-his-hair-out hippie Melo is right up my alley. Clearly stoned, wearing red and black and white,...

Happy Birthday buddy!) and...

Melo’s native Baltimore honored him. Carmelo Anthony, who has been somewhat of a recluse (aside from the occasional Twitter workout video) since the end of the season, made his first public appearance and comments since the end of the season on Wednesday, accepting a Medal of Honor from Baltimore Mayor Catherine Pugh. Melo made a strong push to host The Basketball Tournament (a...
