The consensus NBA Finals favorite, the mighty San Antonio Spurs, and all their backers ate humble pie on Wednesday… …and a banged-up yet unstoppable Jalen Brunson served it to them.

The Knicks stunned the NBA world (for better or worse) on Wednesday night, stealing Game 1 of the NBA Finals in San Antonio for the team’s first road win on the biggest stage since Game 2 back in 1994. In an ugly, physical, defensive-focused game, the box score doesn’t look pretty, but we’ll try to […]

In December’s Emirates Cup Final, New York fell behind by 11 to the Spurs before rallying to win the fourth quarter 35-19 and steal the victory. Tonight in Game One of the NBA Finals, the Knicks were considered the underdogs. All the talk was about the Spurs—how they’re the second youngest team to play in […]

It’s gameday, everyone. The New York Knicks are in the NBA Finals. June basketball is here. I never thought this day would come. I’ve spent the last few days reliving the recent playoff runs via YouTube highlights to truly encompass the path we’ve endured to get here, and while we can maybe save the whole […]

We live in an era of sports fandom where championships are among the most important pieces of the puzzle that is a player’s legacy. Regardless of the sport, players have been torn down or elevated above others, sometimes unreasonably or unfairly, because of a championship. In individual sports such as tennis, track and field, gymnastics, […]

For the past few days, Knicks and Spurs fans have had to dream up hypotheticals and play out the most important series of the season in their heads. But tonight, we finally get to see the teams take the court and throw all of that out the window. But before they do, with the NBA […]

This week, I became friends with J.R. Wilco of Pounding the Rock. It’s a strange relationship. We enjoy each other’s banter, and he’s a thoroughly likable dude, yet at the same time, I want the thing I love to destroy the thing he loves—and vice versa. There’s probably a Marvel movie logline in there somewhere. […]

The day is here. Game One of the NBA Finals. Unless you came to this party reallllly late, you know the dates and lengths: 27 years since New York’s last Finals appearance, 53 years since Walt and the Gang beat the league.

I’ve been taking walks for the express purpose of spotting a goldfinch. Of my many superstitions, one is that seeing a goldfinch is good luck. Another is that finding a wheat penny is good luck. The wheat penny thing started in college, when one of my friends noticed that a penny from his pocket had […]

The time has come for the Knicks to play an NBA Finals game. The day is today, and you, like everybody and their mother, will surely be watching. Here’s a mammoth bulletin to get you ready for what will come later. Mike Brown On Mitchell Robinson’s status heading into Game 1: “He did individual stuff […]

It’s crazy to think Jeremy Sochan is about to receive an NBA championship ring regardless of how the Finals play out, despite likely never seeing the floor in the series. Waived by the Spurs midway through the season and later signed by the Knicks, Sochan has been used sparingly by New York. Yet thanks to […]

Before Tuesday afternoon’s media day kicked off, one name was glaringly omitted from the media availability list. As some had suspected, Mitchell Robinson wasn’t going to be fielding questions from reporters. That isn’t necessarily indicative of anything, and shouldn’t be categorized as good, or bad news. But Robinson, and the Knicks, knowing just how many […]
