  • New York Knicks – Playoffs Still an Option

    New York Knicks – Playoffs Still an Option

    In one of the most up & down seasons we’ve seen from the New York Knicks in recent years, the playoffs are still something they can reach but it’s not up to the them, as the 108-100 win over the Toronto Raptors keeps them in the race, but with their destiny in someone else’s hands.

  • New York Knicks – Kissing the Playoffs Goodbye

    New York Knicks – Kissing the Playoffs Goodbye

    The beginning of a new streak, a losing one this time, points to the true identity of the 2014 New York Knicks. A bad defensive team with a mentally weak group that was able to look good for short spurts during the season because of focus, effort and momentum. But when things don’t go their way early, embarrassing losses like the 127-96 one to the Los Angeles Lakers happen.

  • Knicks Over Pacers – The Beginning of a New Era

    Knicks Over Pacers – The Beginning of a New Era

    There’s that feeling in the air of something new, and hope, which hasn’t been something the New York Knicks have been attached with this season. Phil Jackson in the stands, Carmelo Anthony on the court, and a growing winning streak, this time beating the Indiana Pacers 92-86.

  • New York Knicks – The Season Saving Streak Continues

    The New York Knicks are making the most of a very soft spot in their schedule, this time having no trouble beating the Milwaukee Bucks 115-94, inching a bit closer towards the playoffs with a very good game from Carmelo Anthony, Amare Stoudemire, J.R. Smith and Tim Hardaway Jr.

  • New York Knicks – The Improbable Streak Continues

    New York Knicks – The Improbable Streak Continues

    Despite the ‘spread the love’ feel from looking at the box score from the 123-110 win for the New York Knicks over the Philadelphia 76ers, it was more about awful shooting from Carmelo Anthony and excellent offense from Tim Hardaway Jr. which made it seem like it was all about sharing the ball and getting everyone involved.

  • New York Knicks – The Playoffs Continue to Get Closer

    New York Knicks – The Playoffs Continue to Get Closer

    We mentioned another misleading streak beginning yesterday. It seems it’s not over yet, as the New York Knicks came away with a 107-97 win over a direct rival for the final postseason spot, the Cleveland Cavaliers, after another impressive scoring performance by Carmelo Anthony and generally the offense-oriented lineup doing its job.

  • New York Knicks – The Beginning of a Final Playoffs Push

    New York Knicks – The Beginning of a Final Playoffs Push

    Despite their appalling form of late, the New York Knicks might still be considered in the Eastern conference playoff race thanks to some interesting changes by Mike Woodson, returning Amare Stoudemire to play next to Carmelo Anthony in the lineup, leading to a 118-106 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves.

  • New York Knicks – Carmelo Anthony Finally Has an Easy Night

    New York Knicks – Carmelo Anthony Finally Has an Easy Night

    There haven’t been many easy games for the New York Knicks, who were finally dominant enough through the opening stages thanks to some excellent Carmelo Anthony shooting that it allowed them to give their big star some much needed rest in the fourth quarter.

  • Heat vs Knicks – These Things Happen

    Basing theories on one good game by the New York Knicks against the Miami Heat in which Carmelo Anthony actually outplayed LeBron James in the final minutes wouldn’t be wise. Calling it like it is sounds a bit better, which is pretty much one usually bad team playing surprisingly well against the NBA champions, who got nothing from their role players.

  • Bulls vs Knicks – A Battle Of The Bad & Injured

    Bulls vs Knicks – A Battle Of The Bad & Injured

    As it turns out, it’s better to be on the bad side. At least you have players of obscure talents to rise to the occasion from time to time, like the New York Knicks have in Amare Stoudemire giving Carmelo Anthony a hand, instead of being crippled by injuries to your three starting perimeter players, as the Chicago Bulls continue to sink and look awful in the process.
