Photo by Michelle Farsi/NBAE via Getty Images The former McDonald’s All-American has embraced his new start in New York. More than ever, we as basketball fans have been able to follow the journey of countless youth players from their earliest days in AAU to making it as professional athletes. Ivan Rabb is one of those players that thousands of basketball fans have followed in recent...

Photo by Jesse D. Garrabrant/NBAE via Getty Images Taj has been trusted to start, but not to finish The Knicks followed up Sunday afternoon’s fourth quarter collapse with a Monday night first quarter capitulation. An evergreen sentence, in an evergreen season. Losing by 44 is never a great look. But, to be fair, Giannis Antetokounmpo isn’t human. He’s a Grecian Demigod. The burden...

Stink The Knicks’ best player is the best domesticated cat Preface: Shoutout to Stingy for the beautiful artwork You read the title correctly. Despite the insistence by the team that they are “dogs,” it’s so blatantly obvious that the beautiful, sweet baby French Prince of New York is a Maine Coon cat. (Despite his own insistence that he’s a dog — peer pressure is a hell of a drug.)...

The Knicks suck; my cat didn’t. Haven’t checked the score in a while, to be honest. At one point the Milwakuee Bucks were up 42 points on the New York Knicks . Maybe they will win by more than 42. Who cares? At the moment, former Knicks Thanasis Antetokounmpo and Robin Lopez are playing garbage time minutes for the Bucks against Kadeem Allen , Ignas Brazdeikis , and various other...

Gyro stepping into tomorrow. Tonight the Knicks (4-16) head to Milwaukee to take on the Bucks (17-3) in a soused gold sprint to nowhere . New York has careened off the road in an alley cat from the pit of your ass. It feels like there is almost nothing to be gained from committing to the tank (yet again) with the dumb Warriors Ted Shredding their way to a top pick that will help...

Photo by Michael J. Le Brecht II/NBAE via Getty Images This past week saw 11 W-Knicks score 10-plus points before team leaves for a lengthy/competitive road trip. As the first month of this G League season concludes in a week, the Westchester Knicks (2-7) have seen a bit of everything. Exciting victories. A five-game losing streak. The common struggles of newer and younger players...

Stink No this isn’t a repeat of last week, we swear There will be a time and place when Drew, Shwin, and whoever is their very special guest is that week will not be complaining about how poorly coached the New York Knickerbockers are. That time and place, unfortunately, is still to be determined. In this week’ episode of the Posting & Toasting Show, the guys are joined by Terry from the...

Photo by Jesse D. Garrabrant/NBAE via Getty Images Gimme a Scotch. Leave the bottle. Friends, New Yorkers, P&Ters, lend me your ears; I come to praise the Knickerbockers, not to bury them. The losing teams do lives after them; The good is oft interred with their bones; So let it be with the Knicks. The noble David Fizdale, even after they lost their sixth in a row, 113-104 to...

Photo by Jesse D. Garrabrant/NBAE via Getty Images Let’s just forget the last six Well, that was fun up until a point. And the point can be nailed down to an exact spot: 95-95 with 6:00 left. This has been one of the more complete Knicks games this year — Posting and Toasting (@ptknicksblog) December 1, 2019 You do the math about what went down from that point on. I don’t really...

Justify your existence. I’m not so sure we want to talk about the acute failures of the Knicks (4-15) nor the oblong successes of the Celtics (13-5). So I figured let’s have a fireside chat about a Celt who wore knickerbockers. So ok, Im glad you watched, and welcome back. This is exciting, there is lots to talk about now. A new way of thinking. Light up the broccoli, Fiz. The...

Photo by Andrew D. Bernstein/NBAE via Getty Images Thankful for y’all, y’all This mailbag is gonna be a three-part bonanza. Let’s get to it. 1) Is there any chance David Fizdale (or another coach) will try playing Julius Randle off the bench? Or do we think [Steve Mills & Scott Perry] promised playing time and are too hands-on to let that happen? — sbknicks ...

Photo by Ned Dishman/NBAE via Getty Images Thoughts on being back in a familiar place It was inevitable, really. The post-Thanksgiving, pre-Christmas emotional reckoning of something I like to call Seasonal Knicks Disorder. It’s that delightful chunk of the season when Knick fans everywhere begin to break up with the expectation of wins and losses as a marker for success. We’ve been...

Photo by Jesse D. Garrabrant/NBAE via Getty Images We’ll always have the first quarter... In second grade a boy in my class named Michael Crooks moved away. After his last day I went home and buried my face in my pillow, sobbing. The thing is, I wasn’t really even friends with Michael. But him leaving gave me a reason to make something out of, if not nothing, nothing much. The Knicks...

Photo by Jesse D. Garrabrant/NBAE via Getty Images Led for a while, lost it down the stretch. The Knicks played the Sixers really well in the first half, leading by double digits, and then flubbed it down the stretch and lost. No, it’s not Nov. 20, it’s Nov. 29. But the Knicks played basically the same game against the Sixers tonight that they played just over a week ago, making them...
