NY Post (Marc Berman) —
As LeBron James reaffirmed Monday night at Staples Center, Madison Square Garden has always held a special grip on his heart. Not the Knicks, mind you, but the arena on 33rd Street, sandwiched between 7th and 8th avenues. In a private conversation with Dwyane Wade after they played against each other for the final time,...

If you are a New York sports obsessive, there’s a good chance you may have missed this scene late Monday night because you were doing as your fellow obsessives were doing: wearing out Twitter every 15 or 20 seconds, refreshing, refreshing, refreshing, as the first frenzy of activity at baseball’s winter meetings began to churn....

Courtney Lee is headed to the minors. The 33-year-old shooting guard, who returned three games ago from a mysterious, season-long neck injury, has been assigned to the G League’s Westchester Knicks to play against the Lakeland Magic on Wednesday so he can get big minutes. Lee admitted over the weekend he’s in preseason form, and...

Look away, Knicks fans. LeBron James hinted he could have been playing for the Knicks, and the reason it didn’t happen might be Phil Jackson, according to a report. Following the Lakers’ nail-biting, 108-105 win Monday night against the Heat at the Staples Center, James met with longtime friend Dwyane Wade in likely the last...

We are forever looking for signs, because that’s what we’ve been reduced to. We could sit around and X off the calendar until pitchers and catchers report to Yankees camp — that would be 64 days, as of Tuesday — when our next sure thing rises again, or we can look around Everywhere Else, looking,...

Two players in NBA history have scored at least 25 points and grabbed at least 15 rebounds in one game before their 20th birthdays. One is LeBron James, among the greatest players of all time. The other is Kevin Knox, who is nowhere close to being spoken about in those terms, but who accomplished that...

Willy Hernangomez is taking the line from “The Dark Knight” — “You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain” — to heart. The one-time fan favorite may become a sworn Garden enemy with comments like these. “Now my job,” he said of close friend Kristaps Porzingis, “is to...

Kemba Walker didn’t shut the door completely, leaving it open just enough to give Knicks fans a glimmer of hope. “I don’t have any interest in coming back home — right now,” the Hornets’ free-agent-to-be point guard said when asked if playing for his hometown Knicks would appeal to him. At least the dynamic Bronx...

If the Knicks were hoping to convince Kemba Walker to join them next summer as a free agent, at least they can say their youthful core put up a fourth-quarter fight in their latest ugly defeat this season. One night after a late rally fell short against the rival Nets, the Knicks couldn’t climb all...
NY Post (Kevin Kernan) —
Realizing what it takes to win in the NBA is an education in itself. The Knicks and Nets are seeing what it takes, but seeing it and making it happen are two different worlds. The Nets were determined to show they are not tanking this season and thoroughly embarrassed the Knicks 112-104 on their home...

Kemba is coming to town for the holidays. Kemba Walker, The Bronx’s finest point guard, couldn’t stop smiling in August when talking about the Knicks at a Players Association function at Basketball City at Pier 36. Walker even knew the holiday date of the Hornets’ first visit to the Garden. Yes, it is Sunday night,...

Knicks coach David Fizdale put Frank Ntilikina back on the floor during a timeout with 3:43 left in the third quarter and the Knicks down 16 to the Nets on Saturday night. Receiving a nice hand from the Garden crowd, Ntilikina, after sitting three straight games, provided a renewed energy and spark — but it...
NY Post (Marc Berman) —
Kentucky coach John Calipari, at the Garden for Saturday’s clash with Seton Hall, weighed in on Knicks rookie Kevin Knox’s early-season struggles — stressing his former Wildcats star was the second-youngest player in the draft and will ultimately succeed in the NBA because of his “multi-dimensional’’ skills. “I was with his parents last night –...

It’s almost mid-December, but it’s preseason for Knicks veteran Courtney Lee. If that uncontested blown layup wasn’t evidence enough Monday against the Wizards , then here is Lee’s frank review of his first two games, in which he’s shot 1-for-7. “It’s going to take a while to get reactivated to game-speed, game-like situations,’’ Lee said...

Three-game message sent. Knicks coach David Fizdale gave all indications Frank Ntilikina is no longer French toast. After benching him for three straight games, including letting him sit during Thursday’s nationally televised 128-100 loss in Boston, it looks as if the 2017 lottery pick will be back in the mix when the Knicks host a...
