Roll the dice or just pick one. Nearly a year has passed since Mitchell Robinson last took the floor for the Knicks , but his long-awaited return is now imminent, and it couldn’t come at a better time for the team’s defense. Earlier this week, head coach Tom Thibodeau acknowledged Robinson’s absence, stating, “Mitch was projected to be the starting center on our team. So we’ve gone...

The New York Knicks escaped a disastrous embarrassment on Wednesday by stiff-arming a stubborn Philadelphia 76ers squad that was oh-so-close to pulling off a 19-point comeback victory. The Knicks, or better said Jalen Brunson, did enough to put those dreams to an end, ultimately winning the game and...

Knicks, who’ve been great against sub .500 teams, look to get back on track against a struggling Sixers team before a tough stretch in a battle of disappointed fanbases When the league made, and came out with the regular season schedule, they, and the fans, might’ve had this game circled due to the recent history between these two teams, and the big names involved. The 76ers went out and...

The lack of better pretenders kept New York atop the best wannabe contenders. If the New York Knicks won't sugarcoat things I won't do either. Simply put, it's been a putrid week for the team coached by Thibs. For how long that remains the case (both getting putrid results and having Tom Thibodeau at the helm), we can only wait and see. One win in three games, in overtime, thanks to a...

Will New York really lose to Philly? Hope not! The Knicks play the depleted Sixers on Wednesday, which means 1) New York basketball is back and 2) another loss might see Tom Thibodeau fired because of who that defeat would come against. Anyway, we’re here to be positive, which means taking a look at what was said coming off Tuesday’s practice in Tarrytown. Here’s the latest from Coach...

New York is looking for more out of its squad. It starts with Bridges. When Mikal Bridges was dealt to New York this past summer, the deal seemed too good to be true.

New York must maximize its talent for a championship-worthy attack—or find a coach who can. The Knicks have a choice. They can lean into what they do best—scoring—or they can keep clinging to a defensive identity that isn’t maximizing their potential. Right now, they’re stuck in the middle, ineffectively trying to improve defense and rebounding at the expense of what should be an elite...

Boston on a Sunday matinee? Pray for New York, pray for Thibs, pray for our Knicks. If you thought Friday’s trouncing was the worst moment of the week you were dead wrong. The Celtics play the Knicks this afternoon, which means you will have to—let’s be honest here—endure another beating at the hands of a contender handling New York with gusto. I only hope that jinxed Boston, folks... ...
