The Knicks head back to State Farm Arena for Game Four against the Hawks, down 2-1 in their first-round playoff series.

If Mikal Bridges’ stepback mid-range went in on Monday… If that blocked Jalen Johnson dunk attempt bounced your way on Thursday… The Knicks are a pair of bounces away from this series being all but over, up 3-0. Any neutral basketball fan would expect that, in a one-possession game in the final minute, the team […]

Maybe the Knicks (1-2) had no business winning this game against the Hawks (2-1). After sleepwalking through a miserable first quarter and falling behind by 18 in the second, they entered halftime down by eight, matched Atlanta’s thirty points in the third quarter, and finally seemed interested in victory late in the fourth quarter. Too […]

Jalen Brunson: C- The 29 points and seven assists will be what people see, and the box score-watchers will say he had a solid game. But anybody watching the game can tell you that he did not. Not only did he shoot just 10-26 from the field and 5-7 from the free-throw line, he took […]

There’s been a lot of emotion pouring out of the Knicks-verse after the startling fourth-quarter collapse in Game 2 that turned the series from a Knicks stranglehold to anyone’s series. While not quite as jaw-dropping as the collapse against Indiana last year, this one was more methodical. In a way, though, it’s worse because it […]

Game two’s loss on Monday night was a messy amalgamation of inexplicable coaching decisions, selfish play, bad and bad shot-making from both the three-point line and the free-throw line, and it led to one of the most frustrating losses of the season. So what are the biggest takeaways from a loss that I’m sure everybody […]

Thanks to days of debilitating back pain, I am currently either in excruciating pain regularly or doped up on a muscle relaxer that leaves me dizzier than Dean. As I watched the Knicks slowly but surely piss away last night’s game and a potential 2-0 series lead, I didn’t feel that upset. Some of that, […]

The Knicks (1-1) had this one in their hands—until they didn’t. Up eight with under six minutes to play and in control most of the night, New York fell apart down the stretch, getting outscored 28-15 in a grisly fourth-quarter collapse. A string of empty trips, an impressive performance by CJ McCollum, and a late […]

After a feel-good Game One victory on Saturday, the Knicks are set to host the Hawks again at MSG tonight in Game Two of their Eastern Conference first-round series. A second victory would give New York extra breathing room before the series relocates to Georgia, and would further deflate the momentum of an Atlanta team […]

They are also just the first step in a complex and sometimes long process that is followed up with adjustments and tweaks. Regardless, the opening game tends to give us a good idea of […]
