NBA Rumors – New York Knicks Can’t Get Rid of J.R. Smith
Everything the New York Knicks did last season backfired, blowing up in their face. This includes J.R. Smith getting a three-year deal, something the current administration is trying to rectify, but not expecting to have much luck doing it.

New York Knicks – Playoffs Slipping Further Away
It’s not over yet, but combined with other results the 102-91 loss to the Miami Heat makes making the playoffs a very difficult goal to reach for the New York Knicks, having to withstand another huge night from LeBron James that made J.R. Smith catching fire from beyond the arc almost redundant.

New York Knicks – Almost a Playoff Team
The New York Knicks, a playoff team. Considering all that’s happened this season, that doesn’t make too much sense, but Carmelo Anthony, along with some newly found fighting spirit within the team and some smart changes from Mike Woodson, have led them to a 110-81 win over the Brooklyn Nets and a step closer towards ending up in the postseason.

New York Knicks – Another Misleading Streak Begins
Every now and then Mike Woodson makes a desperate change in his lineup which starts a winning streak that creates the illusion of a good team come together again. The New York Knicks beating the Utah Jazz 108-81 with another big game from Carmelo Anthony is another one of those moments when it seems this dysfunctional team might actually make the playoffs.

Knicks Over Pelicans – Maybe There’s Still Hope
There’s no more margin for error, and the New York Knicks looked like a team knowing they can’t afford to lose in their 98-91 road win over the New Orleans Pelicans, which was mostly about Carmelo Anthony doing almost everything on his own, making it work this time.

New York Knicks – Carmelo Anthony Stuck on Embarrassing Team
There’s nothing good that lasts for too long with the New York Knicks this season, so while Carmelo Anthony puts on quite the impressive offensive performance, the rest of his teammates thoroughly disappoint again and again, leading to a second consecutive loss, this time 101-98 to the Milwaukee Bucks.
