Social media is taking too much away from a regular loss in the NBA Cup quarterfinal. Wednesday’s loss to the Hawks was many things. It was a frustrating game to watch, as the New York Knicks struggled offensively, missing open shot after open shot. They were frequently stymied by the length of the Hawks’ defense, particularly Jalen Brunson, who faced challenges against DPOY candidate...

Paul Westphal: What do we make of Westy’s time and legacy as a New York Knickerbocker? Westphal’s playing career was defined by finesse, creativity, and a basketball IQ that felt years ahead of its time, but he did pretty much everything that was included in his HOF resume before arriving in Manhattan in 1982. The Boston Celtics (...) drafted Westphal 10th overall in 1972 and he PW lost no...

New York keeps calm amid an up-and-down season through 25 games and a 15-10 record. The Knicks lost to the Hawks, somehow, so they won’t be allowed to hoop in Vegas today while they wait for their makeup/losers matchup scheduled for Sunday at Disneyland against the Orlando Magic. New York’s mob did practice at their Tarrytown facilities on Friday and a few players talked to the media...

Many names with very few avenues to get them . . . will it be possible? And more importantly, would it be worth it? With recent reports confirming that Mitchell Robinson likely wouldn’t be ready until January or February, trade rumors have started to pick back up again for the New York Knicks . So who exactly could the Knicks target in an attempt to help bolster their roster? Walker...

Bad news from Shams for a team that needs rim protection. On December 11, 2024, NBA insider Shams Charania reported that New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson is unlikely to be cleared to play until at least late January or early February. That’s particularly stinging news for the Knicks after losing 108-100 to the Atlanta Hawks last night and being outrebounded 58-49. Robinson has...

Fudge Trae Young. The New York Knicks have the best offense in basketball, a fairly modest defense, but certainly the absolute worst consistency in the Association. Alas, another loss— this time 108-100 —to the subpar Atlanta Hawks. That result means New York will embark on a trip to Disneyland on Sunday instead of being part of a semifinal matchup in Sin City on Saturday. Sucky, sucky. ...

With KAT in foul trouble, the Hawks outscore the Knicks and dominate the glass to end their NBA Cup aspirations. Tonight at Madison Square Garden, the New York Knicks (15-10) hosted the Atlanta Hawks (14-12) in Quarterfinal of the NBA Emirates Cup. Felt like a playoff game. The first half saw both the Hawks and Knicks brick a bunch, with New York maintaining a slim lead behind...

The weather outside is frightful, but mailbags are always so delightful . . . Dunno what it’s like where you live, but here in western New York it’s been day after day after week after week of gray, chill and muck. Climate change here doesn’t garner the same amount of attention as when it’s sparking Canadian wildfires or Category 5 hurricanes in the Caribbean, but while WNY real estate...

KAT and the Knicks look to outscore F. Trae and the Hawks and advance to the semifinal in Vegas. The New York Knicks (15-9) will face off against F. Trae Young and the Atlanta Hawks (13-12) tonight in the quarterfinals of the NBA Emirates Cup. The winner will advance to Saturday’s semifinal game against the Bucks in Vegas. If the Knicks lose, they will play the Magic in Orlando on...

Not long from now pundits will have no option other than calling New York a top-5 team. With 24 games in the books and a trip to the NBA Cup semifinals in play on Wednesday, it’s fair to say the New York Knicks are sitting pretty, considering the monster roster overhaul they experienced in a span of a few months. Things haven’t stopped improving for New York with each passing week, going...

Since the big man’s return, New York has not only gotten a look at a potential two-big lineup, but how a traditional big fits the roster. When the fateful OG Anunoby trade went down last December, very few envisioned any bigger role for Precious Achiuwa than a backup center who would depart in free agency in the offseason. His impact would be rather minimal and was merely a depth piece. ...

New York screwed up in the 1999 NBA draft but it’s all good now between the Knicks and MWP. No game for the Knicks on Tuesday means big game for the Knicks on Wednesday. It’s NBA Cup Week and with New York having won their group the squad clinched a place in the quarterfinals and a matchup with Atlanta. New York will host Trae Young in another do-or-die situation, looking to put the Hawks...

Overpayment? Maybe. Underperformer? Hardly. When the Knicks traded five future first-round picks to the crosstown rival Brooklyn Nets for Mikal Bridges, the immediate reactions were mixed. Some fans and analysts were impressed by the addition, citing his proficiency from deep, his excellent screen navigation as a point of attack defender, and his durability. Others thought that it was an...

One more dub in the bag even as notalgia hit hard. It took the New York Knicks a bigger-than-expect effort to deal with the Toronto OVOs in Canada but New York had enough fuel in their tank. At the end of the day, the folks in Orange & Blue threads handed RJ & Co. a smooth 113-108 L on Monday night. It was an important win to carry them into their pre-NBA Cup matchup this Wednesday at...
