Here’s my latest conversation with J.R. Wilco of Pounding the Rock. After a pair of nail-biters in San Antonio, the NBA Finals shift to Madison Square Garden with the Knicks holding a 2-0 lead and the Spurs searching for answers. In the latest edition of our ongoing Finals correspondence, J.R. and I discuss Game Two’s […]

Remember those long breaks between the second and third rounds, then the Conference Finals and the Finals? Having an extra day of rest between Games 2 and 3 felt like twice as long to me. Thank God we’re back at it. Here’s another humongous Bulletin ahead of Game 3, covering everything that went down on […]

The New York Knicks were never going to win the trade. Not in November. Not in December. Not in January. Not in April or May. Simply put, Mikal Bridges would forever need to carry the weight of landing in Manhattan by way of five draft picks sent across the bridge to Brooklyn. The Knicks’ package […]

The loudest I’ve ever heard Knicks fans at Madison Square Garden was May 16, 1997. Game 6, Knicks vs. Heat. 48 hours earlier, P.J. Brown lit the match that David Stern’s dumb de jure brain fanned into the fire that torched the ‘90s Knicks last shot at MJ and the Bulls, ergo their last shot […]

“You’re gonna have a dude. You have to have a 1A dude. And they’re missing that. He too small. “I have a philosophy: If your best player is small, you’re not winning. John Stockton, Allen Iverson, Steve Nash, you can go down the list… Steph Curry is the only—he’s in a different class.” — Becky […]

Why do we have to wait one more day to enjoy another Knicks game? Who would have thought, but turns out ballers also rest on weekends. We don’t, so here’s another Bulletin presented by your very own. Mike Brown On not looking too far amid the NBA Finals: “One of the things that we preach […]

The New York Knicks are just two wins from earning their first championship since they last hoisted the Larry O’Brien trophy all the way back in 1973. They might as well have won it already. After Friday’s 105-104 win over the San Antonio Spurs in Game 2 of the NBA Finals, New York is standing […]

“And David put his hand in his bag,” wrote the anonymous or eponymous author of the book of Samuel, “and took thence a stone, and slang it, and smote the Philistine in his forehead, that the stone sunk into his forehead; and he fell upon his face to the earth. So David prevailed over the […]

You don’t want to make declarative statements midway through a series. The job is nowhere near finished, even if history and all logic suggests that a team who’s had the most dominant 13-game winning streak in the history of basketball won’t suddenly go 1-4 with three remaining games at home. Knicks fans have waited 53 […]

The pre-series narratives painting the Knicks as pushovers were bizarre. New York had been a juggernaut, entering the Finals with a record-shattering +271 point differential, the highest ever by any team in a single postseason prior to the Finals. After their gutsy Game Two road win in San Antonio (105-104), that margin now sits at […]

There have been 80th NBA Finals to date, including the 2026 edition of the title series. Only three times in history has a road team gotten them started by going up 2-0. The Knicks are part of that group, and reading the golden pages of the Association about those two prior cases, it’s guaranteed they’ll […]

These are the NBA Finals. For all the marbles, ya dig? Before the first tip-off, you can script a rough outline: the loser of the first game will come back harder in the second. If they didn’t rise to the occasion, how the hell were they able to reach the final boss? The San Antonio […]

The Knicks are two wins away from their first championship in 53 years. Excuse me as I pinch myself. Alright, I’m not dreaming. What a wonderful world this is. In a heart-palpitating clash, the Knicks survived a nearly disastrous choke in the fourth quarter by the skin of their teeth, prevailing thanks to a pair […]

13 wins in a row. Eight straight away from home. Two down. Two to go. The New York Knicks subjected themselves and their fans to the full range of human emotion, ultimately stopping San Antonio at the buzzer to win Game 2 of the Finals 105-104 and take a 2-0 lead in the series. There […]

Here’s part two of my conversation with J.R. Wilco of Pounding the Rock. He and Spurs Nation are recovering from a stunning 10-point loss in Game One of the Finals. The Knicks, led by the Villanova roomies, made the game a thriller with a 24-point turnaround. Now San Antonio must regroup and try to clean […]
