I guess I’ve come to expect poor officiating in the NBA, and I honestly believe games are fixed because of it. Don’t get me wrong, the Boston Celtics are one hell of a team. But they didn’t deserve tonight’s win over the Knicks. It was taken away from New York with a series of late [...]

Really nice win for the Knickerbockers tonight, their third straight. The Knicks got off to a fast start, built a 17-point third quarter lead and had to sweat out a furious Memphis fourth-quarter rally before Carmelo Anthony won it with a jumper with less than a second to play. Melo finished with 31 points, while [...]
Following last night’s tough loss to the Magic (a game the Knicks led by double digits late in the third quarter), the Knicks bounced back big time tonight by thrashing New Orleans at home. I was a bit worried when I found out Chauncey Billups would miss this game due to an injury, but Toney [...]
Wow! After a dumbfounding loss to the Cavaliers Friday night, the Knicks rebounded in a big way tonight with an impressive victory over the Miami Heat. And the Knicks won with defense, a rarity in the Mike D’Antoni era. Down the stretch, the Knicks played like they wanted it more, hitting huge shots and coming [...]
The Carmelo Anthony era for the Knicks began on a positive note, as Melo scored 27 points and grabbed 10 rebounds to help New York top Milwaukee tonight at the Garden. Melo came out a bit tight (as one would expect) and wasn’t that efficient offensively (10-25 shooting) but when the chips were down, he [...]
It’s finally over with and in the end, the Knicks got their man. While I have a bit of a problem with how much the Knicks gave up when they likely were bidding against themselves, I’m certainly happy with the end result – perennial All-Star Carmelo Anthony is a Knick. The Knicks acquired Anthony tonight [...]
As talks between the Denver Nuggets and New York Knicks have heated up regarding Carmelo Anthony, a sad truth has re-emerged for Knicks fans – owner James Dolan is a buffoon who still seems to listen to the idiot to beat all idiots, Isiah Thomas. Dolan has seemingly assumed control of the negotiations with the [...]
For the first time in 10 years, the Knicks head into the All-Star break with a winning record. Amar’e Stoudemire scored 23 points to help the Knicks beat the Atlanta Hawks for the first time in three tries this season, a convincing 102-90 win at Madison Square Garden. Danilo Gallinari, who may have played in [...]
As been the case for much of the new year, the Knicks put up a disappointing performance. This time, they laid an egg against an inferior opponent at home, falling 116-108 to the L.A. Clippers tonight. Although super rookie Blake Griffin had a nice game, the Knicks were burned late in this one by first-round [...]
So, tonight’s Knicks game pretty much sucked. When this team isn’t hitting 3-pointers, they’re as bad as any squad in the league, save maybe the Cavaliers. The Knicks sprinted out to a 34-27 lead after a quarter, then pretty much crapped the bed the rest of the way, especially in the third quarter. Down 56-52 [...]
