The New York Knicks‘ latest win featured plenty of headlines. OG Anunoby drilled the game-winner, Jalen Brunson did his usually clutch thing, and Mitchell Robinson finally returned to the lineup. While Anunoby deserves all the credit in the world for his clutch shot, sometimes, flowers need to be dished out to the players who were …
Well, it was fun while it lasted. Even the diehard fans who compared last year’s New York Knicks to those of the tough and rugged early-to-mid-1990s squads knew the two squads were extremely different. After all, what we know of the loose and fluid basketball of today can’t even dream of resembling the physical and …
The New York Knicks stood firm against a physical opponent for the first time in a long time. Tom Thibodeau’s basketball team miserably failed the physicality test the Atlanta Hawks put them through over a month ago in the NBA Cup, which shocked fans, considering last year’s squad thrived in that area. This time, however, …
Heading into Friday’s matchup with the Oklahoma City Thunder, the New York Knicks put together a nine-game winning streak, eclipsed only by the Thunder’s own 13-game streak. By all accounts, the Knicks dealt OKC a knockout punch in the game’s second quarter, outscoring the Thunder 36-21 on the strength of swarming defense, breathtaking ball movement, …
The New York Knicks have clearly established themselves as one of the NBA’s upper-echelon teams. As demonstrated by their 16-4 record against sub-.500 teams, the Knicks have created separation between themselves and the league’s lesser tier.

Raise the ceiling. That was the New York Knicks’ primary goal when they parted ways with two core pieces of a second-seeded squad to acquire four-time All-Star Karl-Anthony Towns. As we sit here 32 games into the 2024-25 season, it is clear that New York has accomplished that goal. At 22-10, the Knicks are tied …
This is exactly what the Brooklyn Nets and their 17 fans feared. (Sorry, that was indeed a cheap shot, particularly at a time when cheap shots are not required. Then again, plenty of cheap shots have flown toward the man of the hour and his new team in the past several months.) When the New …
The New York Knicks know when to hold them, fold them, walk away, and run. Heck, recent reports suggest they won’t even count their money no matter how far they are away from the table. The Knicks are NBA Cup champions, securing the Association’s third in-season championship with a 124-113 triumph over the San Antonio …
With Sunday’s defeat to the New Orleans Saints, the New York Giants, eliminated from playoff contention last week, have now lost their 19th straight game while playing from behind heading into the third quarter. Even worse, the New York Jets’ loss to the Miami Dolphins has now barred them from the playoffs for the 14th …
Well, Tom Thibodeau must have had a few choice words for his team after Saturday’s horrific performance in Utah because the entire squad came out like gangbusters in Denver. OG Anunoby‘s career-high 40 points paced the New York Knicks to a dominant 145-118 win over the Denver Nuggets in the Rocky Mountains on Monday night. …
