While the Sixers and Pistons fought tooth and nail for all six games (especially Detroit), there are six-game series that aren’t as competitive as it sounds. This was […]

Knicks 140, Hawks 89: “We witnessed Halley’s Comet”

Most Knicks fans are younger than 65, meaning most have never seen this team win a championship. If you’re 40 or under, you missed Patrick Ewing. Any fan not yet old enough to vote wasn’t following Linsanity. But any Knick fan of any age who tuned in to last night’s rare bird of a Game […]

Drake Powell season analysis in Brooklyn Nets Rookie Report — No. 10

The trade the Brooklyn Nets made to acquire the #22 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, which they used to select Drake Powell, was a smart move. In addition to Powell, the Nets received Terance Mann in the deal, or more accurately, they relieved the Atlanta Hawks of his contract. Mann is owed roughly […]

Knicks 140, Hawks 89: Scenes from a gashing in Georgia

For nearly two weeks, the Knicks toyed with our emotions. Game One of their first-round Eastern Conference playoff series with the Hawks was a mostly by-the-books win. Then our rosy dreams of championship glory were dashed by a choke job, a one-point loss in Game Two, and an even worse one-point stinker in Game Three. […]

Playoff Game Preview: Knicks vs Hawks, Game 6, April 30, 2026

A 3–2 series is maybe the trickiest one to gauge in sports. One team clearly has the advantage of needing to win just one of the remaining two games, and if said team was the winner of Game Five, as the Knicks were, then their confidence is likely high. But New York will be heading […]

Knicks may have to play Game Six without key wing

The Knicks heat into Game Six in Atlanta with a chance to close out their first round series, but might have to do so without an essential piece. Josh Hart exited Tuesday’s 126–97 Game Five humiliation of the Hawks in the fourth quarter and never returned to the bench. Afterward, Mike Brown didn’t have much […]

How the Knicks’ big three have stifled the Hawks defense

When breaking down a playoff series, one can occasionally overthink things. They may look at matchups, schemes, depth, injuries, past matchups, and analytics. I’m guilty of that myself, and even did that for the Knicks’ current series against the Hawks. But Games Four and Five served as a friendly, but very loud, reminder that in […]
