"I wouldn't say we had a bad effort." The Knicks lost by 41 at home to the 9-12 Celtics. At least all the Knicks understand how awful that is: Shumpert says a couple of shots the team normally hits didn't fall, and that game would've been a lot different. Really? — Chris Herring (@HerringWSJ) December 8, 2013 "I wouldn't say we had a bad effort," Felton said. "I mean, those...

Inclement weather, I guess. The Knicks had a game scheduled against the Celtics this afternoon, but they elected to forfeit.

P&T for your ears! On Saturday afternoon, my friend Jason (who you surely know as netw3rk ) came over with his dog, Milton, to record a Knicks podcast with me. Milton did not like my dog's company, but Jason and I did indeed record a conversation about the Knicks. We talked about a bunch of players, we talked about the Magic game, we talked about the Nets game, and we talked about the...

Links! Good day, fishes! It's a linky kind of day. - The shanny is one from the "fish look ridiculous and have ridiculous names" category. As a member of the family Blenniidae , it is a "combtooth blenny". "Combtooth" is because they have comb-like teeth. "Blenny" because...I dunno, they are very blenny in nature? - I was interviewed for Scott Cacciola's excellent profile of us dirty,...

Win streak? Win streak! It would have been unbecoming to get excited over one win over the Nets . It's just the Nets. A second straight win over the Magic , though? The Knicks are back. The East is ours. The Heat and Pacers aren't eve-- what's that? The Heat and Pacers just quit the NBA and ran off into the woods because they're so terrified of the Knicks? Wow. Poor form, cowards, but...

This is how we do it. It's a win streak! A night after the Knicks more than made up for spotty defense by playing crisp offense and shooting the lights out in Brooklyn, they more than made up for spotty defense by playing crisp offense and shooting the lights out at home against Orlando. New York used drive-and-kicks, pick-and-pops, and a lot of fine work from Carmelo Anthony in the post to...

ONE STRAIGHT! Damn, I like winning. That was fun. It was simple, too. The Nets ' awful, awful, seriously reprehensible, borderline quarantine-worthy defense encouraged New York to make smart passes, and the Knicks at the end of those smart passes made their shots. It looked like they were playing the game on easy mode after two or three weeks playing on superstar mode with their thumbs...

STREAK'S OVER!!!! THEY'RE FIXED! THE STREAK IS OVER AND THE KNICKS ARE GREAT NOW! BYAHHHHH CHAMPIONSHIP COMING!!!!! But for real, that was fun. The Nets suck harder than a 90-foot remora and the Knicks fiiiiinally took advantage. Iman Shumpert and Raymond Felton (and the whole crew, really) got hot from outside. Carmelo Anthony found some touch of his own, attacked the glass, and created...

The Knicks and Nets face off in Brooklyn tonight. Well, here's this. There will be a basketball game between the awful Knicks and the awful Nets tonight. We've been told this game could hold special weight in determining the fate of Mike Woodson . That is extremely silly, but we do not know if it's true. I guess we'll see. The Nets are down four important men -- Deron Williams , ...

(Plus updates from today's practice, where Mike Woodson was the coach.) Hello. Welcome to another day in purgatory. Something big will happen eventually. We're just wading through losses and quotes in the interim. So, to catch up with the rumor mill: After yesterday's reports that Mike Woodson might be nearing his end and (from the Post) that the Knicks would consider Jeff Van Gundy as...

The Bayhawks did not secure their first win of this season, but Jeremy Tyler returned! Hello friends! The Knicks continue to struggle and make us very sad, so maybe some news about the baby Knicks might cheer you up. Jeremy Tyler , the athletic forward/center who had been out with a foot injury, returned on Sunday to face off against the Fort Wayne Mad Ants.Tyler's activation was fairly...

Elbows vs. shells is the cause of all Knick turmoil. G'afternoon! The Knicks just got done with practice, and they gave some grade-A losing team quotes during media availability. Here we go: PASTA BATTLE!!! Metta World Peace , on @IanBegley 's report of a kerfuffle between himself and Kenyon Martin : "We had an argument about pasta." — Scott Cacciola (@ScottCacciola) December...

Everyone's MAD. Good morning, P&T! Happy birthday, Trina! I aspire to post about some actual basketball things today, but first: The air is dank with talk of BLOW-UPS and DUST-UPS and HOT SEATS and RUN-INS and...SHAPE-UPS and LOVE-INS and all sorts of scandalous two-word phrases from the last few days. Let's just shovel it out there so we know where things reportedly stand. HOT SEAT! Both ...

Nine straight. The Knicks are cruel, man, and I am so weak-willed. I've come into each of these games acting all blase, just for my own benefit. I sit down practically inviting the Knicks to lose. I can't bring myself to care anymore. Losing will only accelerate the inevitable big changes to come. And so forth. I did this last night. I double-did it, remembering how sheepish I felt to have...
