Thanks for the memories, and good luck in your future endeavors Ron Baker , a gritty and serviceable basketballer whose NBA ceiling is beneath the roof, made his final sacrifice for the New York Knicks this week when he was waived in order to make room on the roster for undrafted rookie sensation Allonzo Trier . Baker , best known for his luxurious locks of golden hair that flow like...

Youngins balled? Check. Comeback? Check. Heartbreak? Check. Ping pong balls? Check. The Knicks’ 113-106 loss in Cleveland tonight featured all three faces of tanking. Tanking = crazy. Tanking = classic. Tanking = life. Kevin Knox started for the first time since mid-November at small forward, which was interesting ‘cuz: When Knox plays the 4, the Knicks net rating is bad (-7.9),...

Knox! The New York Knicks lost to the Cleveland Cavaliers Wednesday night, 113-106. Was it a productive loss? Absolutely. The Knicks are now 0.5 games behind Cleveland for fourth place in the tank rankings. Was it painful to watch? Ehh...not really. In fact, some tremendously inspirational moments were provided late, particularly from rookie Kevin Knox , who came up huge late with a...

Maybe coach isn’t so crazy after all The alarm sirens that had been sounding surrounding the benching of Frank Ntilikina seem somewhat muted in the aftermath of the Frenchman’s brilliant performance against the Charlotte Hornets on Sunday, and though the question of whether it was smart to sideline Ntilikina at all still stands, there’s no denying that the early returns are exactly...

Cookin up in the trap game. Pretty beaten down by injuries and with the revolving door of trade spinning, the Cavaliers (6-21) welcome the not as critically wounded Knicks (8-20). Both of these teams are deep in the well of struggle. Cleveland hasn’t had Kevin Love basically all year and just lost arguably their best player to date in Tristan Thompson . The Knicks have tightened up...

See what had happened when LeBron said “The Garden” was... Lebron James was saying goodbye to Dwyane Wade’s annoying career the other night in Los Angeles. Not that we should care. Then as if we’re allowed to not care, for some unknown reason, they weren’t covering their mouths with their jerseys or towels. While surrounded by more than several camera folks, Lebron said something about where...

Lee and the W-Knicks. The New York Knicks have assigned Courtney Lee to Westchester, per their own PR Twitter account. Courtney Lee has been assigned to Westchester. He is scheduled to be available to play tomorrow at Lakeland and rejoin the NY Knicks on Thursday in Charlotte. — NY_KnicksPR (@NY_KnicksPR) December 11, 2018 The Westchester Knicks play the Lakeland Magic on...

Allen, a former second round pick, is the definition of hard working. A wise man once said, “there’s beauty in the struggle.” And while many will disagree with that statement as they go through their own struggles, I’m standing in agreement with it. Those who embrace everything, regardless of what they’re going through, usually make it out on top and better than ever. So I guess that’s why ...

This could have been “The Kevin Knox Game” if it wasn’t maybe “The Frank Ntilikina Game.” The Knicks fell 119-107 to the first-place Charlotte Hornets. The margin of defeat is virtually the same as Allonzo Trier’s points per game. Trier strained his left hamstring during in warmups and didn’t play. Fallacious linear thinking (as opposed to fellatious linear thinking) might conclude all...

As good a loss as you’ll see. The Knicks technically lost Sunday night, I suppose. The Charlotte Hornets scored 119 points to the Knicks’ 107, which is the clinical definition of a loss. But this was more than just another night—this was French Heritage Night! And the Knicks’ resident Frenchman, Frank Ntilikina , rose from the ashes of his recent benching like a magnificent Gallic...

W-Knicks fall victim to a huge fourth quarter performance despite their sizable lead. When you lose the way, the Westchester Knicks (12-4) did on Saturday night, there’s only one thing that has to be said. These kinds of games will happen, whether you like it or not. Despite leading for the entire game and heading towards their eight consecutive victory, the W-Knicks suddenly collapsed in...

Right back at it. Where’s Frank, David? New York (8-19) barely has time to check the tape to see what happened last night. So there’s plenty of hand wringing to do over whether or not Frank Ntilikina impacts the game. Perhaps Allonzo Trier needs the ball even more (he needs it less). Maybe Mario Hezonja should run point, he’s more decisive than Trier, right? Aw who am I kidding? Let’s...

This was a game only a mother could love before mercifully aborting. The Knicks lost another fake comeback — or, depending on your worldview, earned more ping pong balls — trailing by double-digits most of the way en route to a 112-104 loss to the Brooklyn Nets. It cannot be overstated how ugly this one was to watch. Not only because the Knicks lost to Team Straight Edge. Nets with the...

It wasn’t quite 40 years in the desert, but Frank finally got back onto the court, where he belongs. The Nets beat the Knicks on Saturday night, 112-104...but who cares? The big news is that Frank Ntilikina is back! The 20-year-old guard was finally released from his bench exile late in the third quarter with the Knicks trailing by 15. It had been more than 176 minutes since the young...
