The mid-July trap is in full effect. The cool air pumps through the Thomas & Mack Center, stakes are non-existent, and our brains begin their annual trick of convincing us that an undrafted point guard is John Stockton’s second coming. Truthfully, 90% of what takes place in Summer League is a hoax. Massive point-getters barely […]

The SummerKnicks beat the SummerPistons 86-75 on Monday, improving to 1-2 in Vegas and briefly resembling a functional basketball team after they didn’t look like one to start their Summer League run. Jack Kayil looked good, Dillon Jones looked useful, Liam Robbins blocked rocks, and Tyler Nickel kept doing the one thing everyone already knew […]

It looks like the Knicks finally woke up from their month-long title-winning dream. And what better moment to do so than on Monday, just in time to beat Motown. Here’s the latest from Sin City and elsewhere. Pacome Dadiet On what he needs to improve entering his third NBA season: “[Become] more efficient at the […]

You need a P&T mailbag, STAT. And you’re in luck! Here’s one now. 1) How will you feel watching Mitchell Robinson ply his trade as a […]

It looks like the Knicks are so good that they have the worst Summerteam. Conversely, the Spurs are doomed as they reached the Finals but then beat the SummerKnicks by 21 in Las Vegas. Not good news for San Antonio. Anyway, here’s the latest to cap the weekend from Sin City. TJ Saint On Tyler […]

The first half of the SummerKnicks’ tenure in Las Vegas is over. That’s cause there is no way they make it to the knockout stage. And hey, not that we care! On to the links and notes. “It wouldn’t be terribly surprising to see the Knicks dangle Deuce McBride in such a trade, either. They’re […]

We so back the Knicks even played basketball yesterday. It was a Summerbeating at the hands of the Neighbor Nets, but that’s the only place Brooklyn can beat New York these days. Here’s the latest from Las Vegas. T.J. Saint On Tyler Nickel: “I’ve been most impressed with Nickel’s defense.” On Mohamed Diawara, Pacome Dadiet, […]

NBA Summer League is a weird funhouse mirror. Excel there (like when Kevin Knox scored 29 points against the Lakers), and a player might be declared a franchise cornerstone. Drop a stinker (as Mohamed Diawara did yesterday, with seven points on 1-of-9 shooting), and some will call the player a bust. Both are overreactions—but it […]
