Burning desire. Talk about a spicy way to kick off the Knicks news cycle the week before Memorial Day. Well, it somewhat started last week as Trae Young’s father, Ray, told the New York Daily News that his son wants the spotlight of Madison Square Garden. “That’s what Trae lives for,” Ray Young said. “He lives for that type of stuff. Just think about it: He’s probably the most talked...

I don’t think it would be hyperbolic to say that the impending conference in Latvia between newly-hired Knicks head coach David Fizdale and injured superstar Kristaps Porzingis is the most important meeting to take place since the end of the Cold War.

Now that we know where everyone’s picking... Alrighty-roo. Have everyone’s hopes been sufficiently dashed by the draft lottery? Was your heart (which beat only for Luka Doncic) ripped out of your chest and sacrificed to the NBA gods, as you watched the just-as-hapless-as-the- Knicks Sacramento Kings move into the top two?

Knicks are the best! For the first time since drafting Patrick Ewing No. 1 overall in 1985, the New York Knicks have moved up in the draft thanks to the lottery. WE DID IT! But wait...aren’t the Knicks picking No. 9 overall? That’s not moving up, is it? I’m not talking about the first round, dummy.
