New York Knicks: Blog Articles

Cold blooded! Those are the words that come to mind when I think of J.R. Smith’s recent play in the Knicks 7 game winning streak. This amazing considering earlier this season J.R. was the kind of player that made you want to throw your remote into your flatscreen. The knock on J.R. Smith has been him shooting too many 3’s and driving less to the hole. That is not the case now. If...

Earlier this week, Carmelo Anthony's Orange steamrolled through the Hoosiers, Mike Woodson's alma mater, and on Saturday, they did the same thing to the Golden Eagles, where Steve Novak played college ball.After Syracuse creamed Marquette, 55-39, securing a berth in the Final Four, Anthony took to Twitter saying, "Marquette has just been Taped!!!!!!!" He later tweeted to a few of his former...

Good afternoon! I've spent most of my day outside petting dogs and talking to ducks because this is the first time it's been sunny and above 50 degrees up here in forever, but I'm back inside to share some links. - Cormorants have long been (and still are, in some cases) domesticated for fishing purposes in Asia and Eastern Europe. Japanese cormorants are, as you might expect, used in Japan...

The Knicks added a seventh win to their streak last night against the Bobcats , which was cool. Just like the previous game, the Knicks gave us a rowdy, excellent first half, then snoozed through the second half and hoped the Bobcats would just let them be. I wouldn't say it worked, but New York won. A few leftover things, mostly from that first half: - This is why we're here. Early in the...

In Wednesday night's win over the Grizzlies, Iman Shumpert scored 13 points in the first quarter on a perfect 5-for-5 from the field (two 3-pointers), and a steal he finished with a fast-break layup. Shump carried that momentum over to Friday night's opening period, scoring eight points (without missing a shot from either the field, 3-point range or the free throw line), while collecting three...

Carmelo Anthony played five and 1/2 seasons with J.R. Smith in Denver, and he saw the sixth man sometimes put up 30 points off the bench, hit 11 3-pointers one time in 2009 and help lead the team to four straight playoff appearances, including a trip to the conference finals.This season, Anthony has seen Smith hit two-game winning shots and score 20 or more points in eight of 10 games from...

This seven-game win streak really couldn't have come at a better time for the Knicks. With Friday's victory over the Charlotte Bobcats, who, incidentally, barely resembled an NBA team for much of the game, the Knicks moved to 19 games over .500 for the first time since the 1999-2000 season. More importantly, they moved 3 1/2 games ahead of the Brooklyn Nets for first place in the Atlantic...

I don't think I have much to say. Like our own Vinny Chase said in the comments, "I am Queens Boulevard" the Knicks developed a bit of a habit this week of napping during second halves. Thankfully, they've been dominating first halves thoroughly enough to get away with it. This one was just a sillier version of Wednesday's win over the Grizzlies . Iman Shumpert's offense got the Knicks...

First Quarter: The Knicks did exactly what you have to do against to do against a team as pitiful as the Bobcats.

WHAT IT MEANS: Another night, another Knicks win. And another strong performance from J.R. Smith. Smith scored a season-high 37 points to lift New York to its seventh straight win -- a 111-102 decision over Charlotte that wasn't competitive until the final two minutes. Smith, the Knicks' sixth man, had 32 against Boston on Tuesday and 35 the next night against Memphis. He's the first bench...

Well, they let things get slightly scary again, but came out alive. The Knicks trampled the Bobcats in the first half, then stayed juuuust awake enough in the second half to keep the win. J.R. Smith had another massive game with 37 points off the bench and Carmelo Anthony chipped in 32 of his own. That's seven straight. Short recap'll be up later or possibly in the morning.
