Photo by Jesse D. Garrabrant/NBAE via Getty Images The third-year guard has been a virtual no-show through the first seven games of the 2023 playoffs One of the luxuries for the New York Knicks this season was their depth. They were a team that could seemingly rotate two different units on the court. New York had ten players that averaged at least 15 minutes per game that were...

Photo by Elsa/Getty Images WHEW! The New York Knicks evened their second-round series 1-1 with a 111-105 comeback over the Miami Heat, a perfectly circuitous win that kept repeating like a wave: the Knicks look good/the Heat storm back/the Knicks look good/the Heat storm back. Before the game, someone might have asked you “Would you sacrifice a day/week/month/year off the end of your...

Photo by Jesse D. Garrabrant/NBAE via Getty Images Quoth Thibs: “We had a number of guys step up to get it done.” The New York Knicks sweated it but earned a hard-fought 111-105 win against the Miami Heat to even their second-round series. Now it’s at least a five-game affair as the teams move on to South Beach. It was a ridiculously close game from tip-off to the final buzzer....

Photo by Elsa/Getty Images I’ll take it. Was Game 2 a good win for the New York Knicks ? Well, it was certainly better than a loss. The Miami Heat looked to be in trouble when it was announced before the game that their superstar, Jimmy Butler, would sit out with an ankle sprain. But we’ve learned things so far in this series: The regular season is meaningless, and HEAT CULTURE is...

Photo by Secuk Acar/Anadolu Agency via Getty Images This is a must win for the Knicks That was a brutal Game 1 loss. To simplify things, if the Knicks would have hit three to four more threes, this could have gone down to the wire, maybe even in the Knicks' favor. Instead, the Knicks were 7-24 for three, equaling 20.6%. That’s a disgusting stat for a team at home trying to strike...

Butler/NBAE via Getty Images After an odd Game 1 defeat, the Knicks are back at MSG on Tuesday to face the Heat New York and Miami will face each other tonight at MSG for the second game of their Eastern Conference Semi-Finals series with the Heat boasting a 1-0 record over the hosts. With only one game in the books, it’s still too early to say things are...

Brad Penner-USA TODAY Sports Fingers crossed Sunday’s game one loss to the eighth-seeded Miami Heat was a tough pill to swallow. The Knicks had an amazing opportunity to get ahead in the series with Julius Randle out and Jalen Brunson having a subpar game. Instead, they allowed a veteran Heat to stay in the game too long, ultimately succumbing to Jimmy Butler, Kyle Lowry, and a...

Photo by Secuk Acar/Anadolu Agency via Getty Images Ankles! Headed into Game 2 of the Knicks-Heat playoff series, all of the talk was focused on ankles. For the Knicks, fans were hoping that Julius Randle, who missed Game 1 with an ankle sprain, would be good to go on Tuesday night. For the Heat, the concern is Jimmy Butler, who sprained his ankle in the closing minutes of their Game...

Photo by Secuk Acar/Anadolu Agency via Getty Images A poor 12 minutes of ball Going into halftime of the game one series between the New York Knicks and Miami Heat , it was unclear how Knicks fans should feel. The first quarter was all New York. Leading 32-21, the Garden was in a frenzy. Miami would shoot a puzzling 4-15 from three in the first quarter. The Knicks would shoot...

Photo by Elsa/Getty Images “Very uncharacteristic by me, and this one’s on me,” Brunson added. That was a tough one. The Knicks dropped Game 1 and handed their home-court advantage to the Miami Heat after losing 108-101 at MSG to kick their second-round series off early on Sunday. Jalen Brunson, who led New York with 25 points, shot 0-for-7 from beyond the arc (11-of-23 from...

Photo by Secuk Acar/Anadolu Agency via Getty Images History is not on the Knicks’ side. If the New York Knicks want to win the championship this season, they will need to make true, legitimate history. In fact, if they want to make it past the Eastern Conference semifinal and the pesky Miami Heat, they will need to do so, too. The Knicks lost 108-101 to the Heat and with that they...

Photo by Elsa/Getty Images Playoffs are different If you’ve been sparing with Heat fans on social media over the last couple of days, one common theme you’ll find among their arguments is: “The playoffs are different.” Did the Knicks go 3-1 against Miami in the regular season? Playoffs are different. Did Josh Hart mostly hold down Jimmy Butler? Playoffs are different. Well,...

Photo by Kirk Irwin/Getty Images Crap. The health of Julius Randle has hovered over the buildup to the Knicks’ second-round playoff series against the Miami Heat. Randle re-injured his left ankle in the Knicks’ series-clinching Game 5 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers. With the quick turnaround, would he be ready for Game 1 against Miami? Sadly, he will not. ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski...

Photo by Jim McIsaac/Getty Images The Knicks return to the second round after a decade away After 10 years, a whole decade’s worth of bullshit, season after season of losing, the New York Knicks are back in the second round of the NBA playoffs. During that time, we had to endure names like Andrea Bargnani, Lou Amundson, Cleanthony Early, Samuel Dalembert, and the inflated, overpaid...

Photo by Megan Briggs/Getty Images Who shall triumph? Knicks-Heat is back. The gang weighs in. Kento Kato: Knicks in 6 I was very skeptical when I chose the Knicks in 7 games over the Cavaliers last round but am a bit more optimistic and confident this time around. That isn’t to say that Miami will be a cakewalk or an easy opponent by any means. The Heat, lead by Jimmy Butler...
