Game Preview: Knicks vs. Heat, December 21, 2025
The New York Knicks (19*-8) host the Miami Heat (15-13) at Madison Square Garden this evening. It’s the fourth meeting of the season, with Miami holding a 2–1 edge. When they last faced off, on November 17, Miami defeated New York 115–113 at the Kaseya Center. Norman Powell scored 19 points, Kel’el Ware posted a […]
Knicks Week Preview: December 21-27, 2025
The Knicks enter the holiday week with little time to catch their breath, facing a stretch of familiar faces and balding foes. I count four plane rides, to-and-from arenas; one early game and one at noon . . . on Christmas, no less; and one contest that feels like a scheduled loss. This year, our […]
Knicks Bulletin: ‘We try to pride ourselves on being a no-excuse team’
Let’s just say that was a schedule loss… …cause it was. Here’s the latest from your Knickerbockers. Mike Brown On officiating involving OG Anunoby: “I thought he was aggressive on his drives, he didn’t get any calls. It’s a weird game and the officials, they got a tough job but I don’t know if I’ll […]
76ers 116, Knicks 107: Mitch makes free throws, but Knicks too tired
Yesterday, the New York Knicks (19*-8) won a last 114-113 battle with the Pacers in Indiana. Tonight, they were back at Madison Square Garden to face the Philadelphia 76ers (15-11). The Knicks struggled with turnovers (again) and three-point shooting to start, but managed to close the first quarter tied at 29. Karl-Anthony Towns and Mitchell […]
Game Thread: Knicks vs. 76ers, Dec. 19, 2025
The New York Knicks (19*-7) return to MSG tonight after a demanding week to face a rested Philadelphia 76ers (14-11) team. New York sits second in the East on a seven-game winning streak and are expected to have Karl-Anthony Towns, Mitchell Robinson, Josh Hart, and Miles McBride back in the fold. Philadelphia will be without […]
Mohamed Diawara gets his first start with the Knicks
Recently, a west coast friend tuned into a Knicks game and texted me, “Who’s the giraffe on skates?” He was referring to Mohamed Diawara, the 20-year-old French forward who the Knicks drafted 51st this past summer. Diawara stands about 6’9” with a reported 7-foot-4 wingspan and was targeted by the Knicks as a low-cost, high-upside […]
Game Preview: Knicks vs. 76ers, Dec. 19, 2025
Ain’t it good to be home? The New York Knicks (19*-7) have endured a demanding stretch this week, with a trip to Vegas—including a hard-fought game with the Magic and Tuesday’s equally challenging NBA Cup win—plus a quick jaunt to Indiana for yesterday’s last-second win. Less than 24 hours later, the Knicks return to Madison […]
Knicks Bulletin: ‘I want to thank the Lord for Tyler Kolek saving me’
No, you didn’t get it wrong. The Knicks won the Cup on Tuesday, beat the Pacers on Thursday, are back in the schedule facing the Sixers today, and will play once again on Sunday. Sheesh… Here’s the latest from your unbeatable superheroes. Mike Brown On Jalen Brunson’s late-game confidence: “Our MVP, the league’s MVP, Jalen […]
Knicks 114, Pacers 113: Kolek and Captain Clutch steal a win in Indy
Tonight, the New York Knicks (19*-7) were at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse to face the Indiana Pacers (6-21). Coming off their Tuesday night NBA Cup win and set to play the Sixers tomorrow, Mike Brown rested Karl-Anthony Towns and Josh Hart, fielding a lineup of Jalen Brunson, Mikal Bridges, OG Anunoby, Ariel Hukporti, and Mohamed Diawara […]
Game Thread: Knicks at Pacers, Dec. 18, 2025
The Knicks (18*–7) head to Gainbridge Fieldhouse tonight to face a depleted Pacers team (6–20). It’s not quite a rematch of the Eastern Conference Finals that the Knicks lost last May. This iteration of the Hoosiers will be lacking Tyrese Haliburton, Aaron Nesmith, Obi Toppin, and Ben Sheppard. Look for Pascal Siakam, Andrew Nembhard, and […]
Game Preview: Knicks at Pacers, Dec. 18, 2025
The New York Knicks (18*-7) visit the Gainbridge Fieldhouse to face the Indiana Pacers (6-20) tonight. Our triumphant heroes are riding a six-game winning streak after capturing the NBA Cup on Tuesday. The Knicks have won ten of their last twelve games and have been cooking on both ends of the floor. Indiana, meanwhile, is […]
Knicks Bulletin: ‘In many ways, it requires predicting the future’
Just in case you’re still celebrating the NBA Cup victory, just remember the Knicks are back on the schedule today with a matchup against the NBA Finals losers Indiana Pacers, no less! Not only that, but New York is actually scheduled for a back-to-back with the second leg of it happening tomorrow in Philly. Uh, […]
Tyler Kolek grew up in Vegas
If you asked men between the ages of 18 and 20 what one place they want to go when they turn 21, you would undoubtedly get a lot of the same responses. Las Vegas. The gambling capital of the world, Vegas is the quintessential place for debauchery and a place where men come of age, […]
Knicks Bulletin: ‘We can be special. Now we have to keep proving it’
There’s one and only one thing to say: believe the hype, fam. Whether you love or hate the NBA Cup, out of 30 teams hooping out there, only one could win Game 83, and that’s your New York Knicks. Here’s everything from yesterday’s historic night in Sin City: Mike Brown On competitiveness and leadership: “So […]
Knicks’ NBA Cup win highlights Mike Brown and Tom Thibodeau differences
After the Knicks’ Tuesday night win to secure the franchise’s first NBA Cup trophy, much of the talk was surrounding Jalen Brunson winning MVP, OG Anunoby scoring a game-high 28 points, and Mitchell Robinson grabbing 15 rebounds (10 offensive!) in just 18 minutes. And rightfully so. But the guy who deserves the most credit might […]
Knicks 124, Spurs 113: Mitch, Clarkson, and Kolek earn their bonuses in NBA Cup win
The New York Knicks have won the 2025 Emirates NBA Cup! Maybe it means nothing to you, but some of us are reveling in it. To finally add another trophy to the case (and another banner in the rafters), to beat the San Antonio Spurs 124-113, and to see our Knickerbockers celebrating with confetti on […]
Game Thread: Knicks vs. Spurs, Dec. 16, 2025
Heard the news? The New York Knicks and the San Antonio Spurs will meet in the NBA Cup Final tonight. It’s Jalen Brunson versus Victor Wembanyama in a Battle Royale. Though the game won’t count in the standings, it represents New York’s trophy tilt in decades. San Antonio’s fortunes hinge on Wemby, whose presence transforms […]
Where Would a Cup Win Rank Among the Knicks’ Greatest Achievements?
There’s no need to rehash my feelings about the Cup from Saturday night. I hate it. My feelings are that this carries the same level of importance as a Summer League championship, with the exception being the names representing the Knicks during tonight’s matchup. Judging by the response to my last post, most of our […]
Knicks Bulletin: ‘A couple times I felt like I was going to snap’
Knicks. Spurs. Bring. It. On. Mike Brown On the impact of elimination games:“Being in an environment like this, it’s a great experience for all of us, especially having the feel of a single-elimination game. There was no, ‘Hey, let’s go get them tomorrow,’ or, ‘Let’s figure it out.’ Everybody kind of hangs on to that […]
Two paths, one trophy: Knicks and Spurs meet in Las Vegas
Two 18-7 teams meet in Las Vegas at the T-Mobile Arena tonight when the New York Knicks and the San Antonio Spurs face off in the Emirates NBA Cup Final. The paths that brought them here could not look more different. Practically everyone predicted New York to dominate the Eastern Conference, while most pundits had […]
NBA Cup Final Preview: Knicks vs. Spurs, Dec. 16, 2025
On June 25, 1999, the San Antonio Spurs, led by an aging David Robinson and young upstart Tim Duncan, outlasted the Knicks, a scrappy group that became the first No. 8 seed to make the NBA Finals despite losing franchise icon Patrick Ewing to an Achilles tear three weeks prior, in Game 5 of the […]
More than 75 NBA players just became available. Will the Knicks fish?
The New York Knicks have two more pieces now available for dangling in the NBA trade market: Jordan Clarkson and Guerschon Yabusele. These two, who signed with the Knicks last offseason, are part of a humongous group of performers who did the same across the Association and thus weren’t available for trade until the NBA […]
Jalen Brunson breaks the modern NBA mold
The modern NBA increasingly prioritizes big ballhandlers and creators, which makes diminutive scoring guards like Jalen Brunson increasingly rare. Spitting in the eye of the trend, the future mayor of New York’s 40-point performance in the NBA Cup semifinal against Orlando gave us further proof of his basketball genius. “He’s got good pace, and he’s […]
Knicks Bulletin: ‘I think he’s taken the challenge personally’
One more day for the Knicks to meet the chance of winning a game that would give them the right to raise a banner to the MSG rafters. The Knicks and the Spurs will gamble on Monday, play on Tuesday, laugh or cry through Wednesday. Here’s the latest from the participants involved in tomorrow’s NBA […]
Knicks Bulletin: ‘Big head, so he has a big brain’
The New York Knicks are Finals* bound, baby! On the other corner, the Thunder Spurs will be trying to hoist the Mini Larry O’B on Tuesday as the other finalist of the in-season battle royale. Here’s everything about the Semifinals and the upcmoing championship game. Can’t wait! Mike Brown On Jalen Brunson’s MVP case:“To me, […]
