Knicks Bulletin: ‘They played well together last year, so I did look at that’
The Knicks made history on Friday, scoring 41 points in the first quarter. Make that make sense. New York plays basketball on Sunday, tip-off set at Noon. It’s an 11 a.m. tip-off in my timezone. Make that make sense. Here’s what we heard around yesterday’s game. Mike Brown On Anunoby’s limited minutes in his return:“It […]
Knicks 146, Jazz 112: They shoot horses, don’t they?
The Utah Jazz (8-14) beat the Brooklyn Nets last night for their second road win. Despite their record, they’ve put forth spunky efforts many times this season. And they have NBA players (Lauri Markkanen, Keyonte George, etc.) on their roster. There was reason to expect the Salt City crew to give the Knicks a little […]
Game Thread: Knicks vs. Jazz, Dec. 5, 2025
The Knicks return to Madison Square Garden tonight looking to extend their dominant 11–1 home record against a struggling Jazz team that has won just two road games. (One of those wins came last night, in Brooklyn.) New York’s balanced offense meets a Utah defense that has had trouble containing anyone, but few things are […]
Game Preview: Knicks vs. Jazz, Dec. 5, 2025
The Knicks have been rolling lately, winning five of their last six games to push their record to 14-7, good enough for third place in the East. And with the Utah Jazz (8-13) traveling to the Garden tonight, New York should be in a good position to keep the good times going. Karl-Anthony Towns was […]
NBA insider weighs in on the Giannis situation
The NBA spent the week weighing two significant developments: Oklahoma City’s 21–1 start and the growing possibility that Giannis Antetokounmpo will be available for trade soon. With OKC leaving sneaker prints all over the league, and trade season starting in just ten days, front offices are pondering what re-tooling can be done to challenge the […]
The Knicks sting the Hornets to win their 11th game at MSG [EXCLUSIVE VIDEO]
The Knicks bounced back at Madison Square Garden on Wednesday night, powering past the Charlotte Hornets 119–104 and extending their home record to 11–1. Karl-Anthony Towns set the tone with a 35-point, 18-rebound performance, while Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart steadied the rotation—just what the doctor ordered after Tuesday’s loss in Boston. Shara Taylor was […]
Knicks Bulletin: ‘Yeah man, I guess my fault to everybody, dog’
The Knicks are back on the schedule, and they have another cupcake matchup to take advantage of tonight. New York hosts the Utah Jazz, aiming at putting up their 15th win of the season, something reasonable considering the lads are 11-1 when they hoop inside MSG. Here’s the latest from your superheroes. Mike Brown On […]
Mike Brown’s rotations need some work without OG Anunoby
The way the Knicks are built, things will never be fully cohesive without their best defender. While OG Anunoby has reportedly resumed taking contact in practice and is inching closer to a return, the Knicks are likely going to slow-play him, not risking things in an 82-game season. So in the meantime, the Knicks have […]
Knicks Bulletin: ‘He had zero defensive rebounds, and he fouled out’
The Knicks didn’t quite convince in their win over the Teal Bees, but a win’s a win. New York hosted Charlotte, drove LaMelo Ball mad, and the youngest of the Big Baller Brothers nearly pulled off the comeback. Too bad it was one vs. a bunch. Here’s what a few Knickerbockers said before and after […]
Knicks 119, Hornets 104: Count your blessings
One of my favorite rocks in my collection is a Jack Hills zircon, a piece so old it predates the Earth having water and a moon. It doesn’t sparkle or shine or light up under UV light the way other rocks do. Doesn’t display different colors depending on where you illuminate it. It doesn’t “do” […]
Knicks 119, Hornets 104: Big KAT beats bugs
With everyone buzzing about a possible Thanasis Antetokounmpo trade, basketball was played at Madison Square Garden tonight, with the New York Knicks (14-7) hosting the Charlotte Hornets (6-16). For the second straight night, New York controlled the first quarter (limiting the Stingers to just 12 points) but faltered in the second, clinging to a 53-47 […]
Game Thread: Knicks vs. Hornets, Dec. 3, 2025
The New York Knicks (13-7) enter tonight’s game against the Charlotte Hornets (6-15) as favorites, but smarting from last night’s close loss in Boston. Our heroes are 10-1 at home, while the injury-shortened Hornets limp in after losing to the Nets on Monday. This would be the perfect game for the Knicks’ bench to get […]
Game Preview: Knicks vs. Hornets, Dec. 3, 2025
Tuesday night’s game against the Celtics wasn’t necessarily the most frustrating or ugly loss of the season, but it was still frustrating. Jalen Brunson played one of, if not the, worst game of his Knicks career, and Karl-Anthony Towns, who did his part offensively, continued to make his fair share of defensive mistakes. That resulted […]
Knicks Bulletin: ‘I’ll go have lunch with them right now. We’re good’
The Knicks made TD look like Madison Square for a quarter, then got mollywopped and sent packing to the one and only Garden. New York keeps losing road games they should win against subpar teams. Alas. The Knicks are back at MSG tonight with a get-right chance against the ludicrous Hornets. Here’s what you need […]
Celtics 123, Knicks 117: Scenes from the 500th game between two rivals
On a chilly night in Massachusetts, the New York Knicks (13-7) crushed the first quarter behind scorching shooting from McBride and Hart, but the Celtics (12-9) stormed back with a dominant second period and rode Jaylen Brown to a 58–52 halftime score. In the third, Brown kept scoring in the paint (from everywhere, really), the […]
Game Thread: Knicks at Celtics, Dec. 2, 2025
The Knicks head to Boston riding a four-game streak, while the Celts continue to scrap without Jayson Tatum thanks to Jaylen Brown’s scoring and Payton Pritchard’s occasional hot hand. Boston fires up huge shot volumes, but New York arrives with the stronger rebounding, a steadier offense, and better two-way balance. As long as this doesn’t […]
Former Knick Danilo Gallinari announces retirement from professional basketball
The Knicks, maybe more than any other NBA franchise, embraces their former players. With the exception of Charles Oakley (we won’t get into that right now), they routinely bring back their alumni to playoff games and their fans have made a tradition out of repeating the phrase, “Once A Knick, Always A Knick”, even if […]
Breaking down Mikal Bridges’ impressive defensive season
Mikal Bridges’ inaugural season as a member of the New York Knicks was disappointing in a lot of different ways. Bridges had a few bright spots highlighted by his Christmas Day explosion and the pair of game-winning defensive plays he made against the Celtics in the second round of the playoffs. But the overwhelming majority […]
Knicks’ Jalen Brunson named NBA Player of the Week
New York Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson, along with his old Mavericks running mate and current Los Angeles Lakers leader Luka Doncic, has been named NBA Player of the Week for Week 6 of the 2025–26 season, putting a strong finish on November for the Knicks. Brunson put together a big-time stretch, averaging 28.8 points […]
Game Preview: Knicks at Celtics, Dec. 2, 2025
The New York Knicks (13–6) brave the snow to visit TD Garden tonight for their second meeting of the season with the Boston Celtics (11–9). Our heroes arrive in Beantown riding a four-game streak, including Sunday’s 116–94 dismantling of Toronto. New York took the first matchup versus Boston back in October with a 105–95 win. […]
Close games have become a rarity under Mike Brown’s Knicks
It is estimated by the IUCN that there are nearly 16,000 species of animals that are either endangered or critically endangered. Endangered species are a tragic occurrence in the wild that can be caused by a variety of factors. Many species have been driven to the brink or even gone totally extinct due to environmental […]
Knicks Bulletin: ‘We have a standard. That’s that contract everybody signed’
The NBA let pretenders look like contenders until the Knicks grabbed them wannabe-contenders and sent them back packing to pretender status. New York hosted Toronto, endured a couple of scares, but ultimately put the Raptors in the blender on Sunday. Here’s what the protagonists had to say before and after yesterday’s trouncing. Mike Brown On […]
Knicks 116, Raptors 94: Shredding a paper tiger from the north
The Toronto Raptors (14-7) had a tough night yesterday, with an overtime loss to the Hornets that snapped their nine-game win streak. Less than 24 hours later, they took the court in NYC to face the New York Knicks (13-6). Even with fatigue, travel, and missing RJ Barrett, we expected more from the Canadian Club. […]
Game Thread: Knicks vs. Raptors, Nov. 30, 2025
The New York Knicks (12-6) host the Toronto Raptors (14–6) at MSG tonight, in what will be as tough test against a Canadian team that matches badly for our heroes. The Raptors play great defense, especially on the perimeter, and Bradon Ingram and Scottie Barnes will be drive hard at the Knicks frontcourt. Toronto snapped […]
Game Preview: Knicks vs. Raptors, Nov. 30, 2025
The New York Knicks (12–6) welcome the Toronto Raptors (14–6) to Madison Square Garden tonight in what feels like a temp check. New York is riding a three-game winning streak, most recently handling the Milwaukee Bucks on Friday night, 118–109. They’re rested and practically unbeatable at home (9–1 at the Garden, curse those Magic punks). […]
