You’re either in or out. Both scenarios have a schedule quirk attached. No game is ever a must-win in December. Well, unless your season is falling apart with every loss like a certain team down I-95. Today is as close to a must-win in the NBA for an above-.500 team in early December. That’s because of the NBA Cup’s fourth and final group play game for the New York Knicks tonight....

Eastern conference foes fight for seeding in battle of great offense vs. great defense The New York Knicks are now 20 games into the 2024-25 season. And it’s been 20 games of high highs, and low lows. But amidst the chaos and the inconsistency, they’ve somehow found a way to eke out a 12-8 record. That isn’t a record to write home about by any means, but it is still a solid record that...

A lot of promising news have hit the shores of New York. The New York Knicks are on the verge of bolstering their frontcourt depth with the return of Precious Achiuwa, who has been sidelined since preseason due to a hamstring strain. Head coach Tom Thibodeau announced Monday that Achiuwa is “getting closer” to making his season debut, potentially “in a week or so,” via Kristian Winfield...

New York will be playing for its life on Tuesday as the Knicks try to advance in the NBA Cup. The Knicks had a day off to start the week following their trouncing of New Orleans and before they play a win-or-go-home game against the Orlando Magic for the right to host an NBA Cup quarter-finals matchup on Dec. 11. New York and MSG will host the no. 3 seed of the Eastern Conference on Tuesday...

A strong week of basketball by the captain is recognized. It’s been an inconsistent stretch for a Knicks team that only yesterday came home from an up-and-down road trip. After it looked like the team finally got into high gear with their blowout win in Phoenix, they laid an egg against a woeful Jazz team, only to eviscerate the reigning MVP in Denver. Even after that, a brutal game in...

The Knicks’ path is starting to take form. What’s the rest of the league up to? The New York Knicks are set to play their biggest game of the young season tomorrow night, as the Orlando Magic travel to MSG in a Tuesday night showdown that will determine the fate of the NBA Cup’s East Group A.

SNY Mikal Bridges bounced back and all Josh Hart did was put on a humongous hat. The Knicks unexpectedly lost a game to the lowly Utah Jazz a few days ago but that wasn’t the case on Sunday’s matchup against another hapless team in the New Orleans Pelicans, beating the Carnivalesque Squad 118-85 and giving them no chance. New York hosted an NBA game for the first time since...

The Knicks newest wing bounces back as the Bockers completely butcher the Birds. The New Orleans Pelicans (4-17) entered Madison Square Garden on a seven-game losing streak, short-handed and struggling. A Knicks (12-8) victory was expected. Abject humiliation was not. New York smothered the Pelicans with defense, allowing just 28 first-half points—their lowest total allowed this...

The Knicks are finally home, but could they be duped by another trap game? The New York Knicks (11-8) return to Madison Square Garden tonight to face the New Orleans Pelicans (4-16). The Knicks are glad to be back home after a grueling five-game road trip, while the Pelicans aim to halt their seven-game losing streak and start climbing out of the Western Conference basement. New York’s...

New York hosts an injury-ravaged Pelicans team before a do-or-dia NBA Cup matchup. The Knicks will have to play a meaningless game against a depleted opponent on Sunday before the most important matchup to date takes place Tuesday inside Madison Square Garden. Will New York play down to their opponent’s talent on Sunday, though? Will the Manhattanites put on another miserable effort...

Ugly game for all, but New York’s big man stepped up late defensively to eek out a win. Winning ugly is always better than losing pretty . Yesterday’s frustrating victory in Charlotte was definitely the former. A mostly healthy—Precious Achiuwa and Mitchell Robinson are still out— Knicks team faced a despondent and depleted Hornets team that was not only starting Vasilije Micic and...

Another Bridges benching and another burst of defensive soundbites from Thibs and teammates. The Knicks nearly choked trying to eat a Hornet in Charlotte in the absence of a proper Manhattanite Thanksgiving banquet, with a final score of 99-98 on an afternoon to forget. New York had one more matchup to deal with before wrapping up their five-game road trip and it looked like the...

Sam Sharpe-Imagn Images Keep your head up, keep moving, go get the next one A Friday noon game in Charlotte the day after Thanksgiving always felt like one the Knicks could lose. Especially as the shorthanded Hornets, missing three starters, led for so much of the contest. Especially after Josh Green ended the first half thusly. LOOK AT JOSH GREEN — Nuh-KAI-us Duncan...

A second straight stinker, salvaged by Deuce McBride’s energy and Jalen Brunson free throws. At noon today, the New York Knicks (10-8) played a matinee game against the Charlotte Hornets (6-12) in the Spectrum Center in Charlotte, NC. This was the fifth game of a road-trip for New York and for most of the afternoon, they played like a homesick team. A second straight 15-point first...
