With the regular season winding down and fewer than 10 games in most teams’ schedules, here’s the latest and second-to-last entry of the Standing Watch series.

Even after Thursday night’s loss to the Charlotte Hornets, the Knicks have remained one of the hottest teams in the league over the last couple of months. Thankfully, that has helped distract some fans from focusing too much on the absence of backup guard Deuce McBride, who has been out since January with a sports […]

Tonight, the New York Knicks (48*-26) visit the Oklahoma City Thunder (58-16) at Paycom Center. This matchup tests whether New York can hang with the reigning champs or are just part-time sluggers.

“The three-ball problem the Knicks are having is not an aberration. It’s chronic. They play a good team, they give up a lot of threes, they play a poor team…and tonight they’re not denying threes again”. That was Walt Clyde Frazier, the color commentator for the Knicks, during Thursday night’s loss to the Hornets. And […]

There’s an old saying that we’ve all heard plenty of times throughout our lives: “Be careful what you wish for.” In sports, the saying can be applied to preferential matchups in the postseason.

At the bank this morning the teller was talking about movies and asked if I’d seen Sinners. When I said I had, she asked what I thought of it. For better or worse, our expectations not only shape our realities, they often become them. I haven’t met anyone who’s seen Sinners and not enjoyed it; […]

Before tonight, the Knicks (48*-26) had won seven consecutive games. Admittedly, some of those foes were lightweight competition. The Hornets (39-34) had won four straight and compiled a 22-6 record since late January. Charlotte had the fourth-best offensive rating, New York had the third. We were salivating for a shootout at the Spectrum Center. Truth […]

It looked like a game against the Pels… …until Knicks captain Jalen Brunson took over. Here’s what was said before and after New York won its seventh consecutive game. Mike Brown On Brunson’s clutch performance against New Orleans: “That’s what great players do. Great players, when it matters the most, when the pressure’s the highest, […]

Who would you consider the best at each individual skill in the NBA? Is Luka Doncic the best pure scorer? Is Nikola Jokic or Tyrese Haliburton the best pure playmaker? Is Stephen Curry the best shooter? Is Victor Wembanyama the best defender? When healthy, does Kyrie Irving have the best handles? But notice how all […]

Two teams with palindromic records squared off at Madison Square Garden tonight. One team sits three slots down from the top of their conference, while the other is five up from the bottom of theirs. The distance between the clubs is misleading, though. With Zion Williamson sporting the physique of a Marvel hero, Dejounte Murray […]

The Knicks are back on the schedule to face Zion’s Pelicans on Tuesday evening. New York is just half a game behind the Celtics for the No. 2 seed in the East. Would you believe it!? Here’s the latest. Mike Brown On Mikal Bridges’ history of production: “He’s shown time after time that he’s a […]

I don’t think anyone was more excited about Jordan Clarkson joining the Knicks this summer than I was. I had been hoping they’d bring him in since last season. From day one, Knicks fans understood his role would be coming off the bench, but beyond that, it was unclear how much of an impact he […]
