Jalen Brunson remembers what happened last May so he might now hit 'em with the chair. It’s been a minute, but hoops are returning home for the New York Knicks home opener later on Friday as the Orange & Blue skies will witness the rematch of last season’s Eastern Conference Semifinals. The Knicks had to endure Ring Night for their season opener in Boston but that evening and that loss...

After garnering the respect of his teammates, coaching staff, and the organization during his rookie season, Williams never looked back. In his sophomore year, his minutes on the court tripled to 16 per game over 77 appearances, including three starts. His field goal percentage surged from .392 to .524, and he recorded three double-doubles all off the bench. On March 2, 1998, he set a new...

In the midst of the disbelief, there were certain plays that stood out to me as points of emphasis for future meetings. Well, that sucked. The Knicks got torn apart by the Celtics on Tuesday, 132-109. That’s already pretty bad, but it should’ve been worse. If not for the Celtics’ benchwarmers going ice cold at the end of the game, the C’s would’ve shattered the NBA 3PM record instead...

The season-opening loss to the Celtics keeps reverberating in New York... The Knicks fumbled the rock against the Celtics on Game 1 but that’s all it was: Game 1 of 82, not to mention what will come after that—hopefully, 16 wins and a chip. It’s not that the protagonists of Tuesday’s Massacre left anything to say after they addressed the media postgame, but we’ve been able to get some...

A loss is still just one loss... regardless of how bad and embarrassing it was. The Knicks retooled much of their starting lineup this offseason to position themselves better to contend with the Boston Celtics . And that led to a lot of excitement and hype leading into the beginning of the 2024-25 campaign. A lot of that frenzy was almost instantly put to rest though as the defending...

An embarrassing opener has New York wondering what's powering the Boston Celtics. The New York Knicks couldn’t have had a worse start to the regular season, visiting the reigning champions in Boston and dropping a no-contest affair they could very well have skipped entirely, final score of 132-109. Again, those were the reigning champions Celtics with the exact same roster they had...

David Butler II-Imagn Images A barrage of Boston bombs knackered the Knicks in an opening night nightmare In the 1956-57 season when the Boston Celtics won their first title, they won the opener against the New York Knicks.

The 81-game win streak starts on Friday. It’s been 155 days since the New York Knicks ran out of gas in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals, and things look a bit different since then. Julius Randle, Donte DiVincenzo, and Isaiah Hartenstein are out of town. Mikal Bridges and Karl Anthony Towns have slotted into the starting lineup in their place. The expectation is that the...

Acquired to be the final piece for the Knicks’ first championship squad in 52 years, can KAT get them over the top? We’ve all had the same dream. If you, like me, grew up in a suburb as a big basketball guy, you had a hoop in your driveway. Even if you grew up in a city and didn’t have a basketball hoop in your driveway, you still likely had the same thing happen to you when you were...

The biggest quote board ever put together ft. Thibodeau, Brunson, Towns, and Bridges! After more than five months (yes) of waiting since the New York Knicks season came to an abrupt end on May 19, we’re (so) back at it.

Expect the unexpected. Ever since Carmelo Anthony’s departure, the Knicks and their fans have been searching for their next star—a cornerstone to build around, someone who could be the undisputed leader and driving force to elevate the team to heights not seen in five decades. Kristaps Porzingis showed flashes of brilliance, but as a Knick, he was still developing, with “potential” being...

The Knicks traded up to get Kolek at 34. The Marquette alum could be a secret weapon for New York later in the season. It’s not too long ago that a guy like Tyler Kolek would be competing to start for the New York Knicks . Six years ago , the Knicks had Frank Ntilikina starting with Ron Baker and Emmanuel Mudiay backing him up. Five years ago , it was Allonzo Trier, Elfrid Payton, and...
