We have arrived. When the Knicks (53*-28) host the Hornets (43-38) tonight at Madison Square Garden, their regular season will draw to a close. What a season it has been. A success by most measures, for sure, yet disappointing at times. So like life. The obviousness of the Pistons and Celtics stealing the top two […]
81 down, one to go. 81 games into this roller coaster ride of a regular season, we’ve reached a point of reflection. In a season that’s seen few true moments to breathe, the Knicks are entering Game 82 with absolutely nothing to play for (unless you want to go for the team’s first 54-win season […]
The Toronto Raptors will play their final game of the 2025-26 NBA regular season at home against the Brooklyn Nets after receiving a thrashing from the New York Knicks on Friday. It’s fitting that a matchup with Brooklyn is how this team finishes off this season, characterized by the end of the rebuild begun two […]
The 2026 NBA Playoffs are just around the corner. Theoretically 16 teams will battle for the championship trophy awarded in June. Practically speaking, only a few of those have a legitimate shot at winning it all. This week SBNation’s Reacts Surveys polled fans nationally, asking which teams in the top four of each conference were […]
Postseason clinched. No. 3 seed locked. That’s your New York Knickerbockers. Mike Brown On not hiding anything against Toronto: “We just play and try to win. When you start messing with the basketball gods it bites you in the ass, so I ain’t gonna do that.” On his postseason focus: “I was trying to get […]
It’s that time of the year. That time of the year when we come up with a thousand possibilities, anxiously think about this and that and the other thing… only for everything to unfold and be resolved by itself in 24 hours. We just can’t help ourselves, can we? That’s why, with just one game […]
Nikola Vucevic has begun to string together strong performances after his initial struggles coming back from a broken ring finger. While Friday’s game against the Pelicans lacked the intensity of the Celtics’ previous game against the New York Knicks, it was still a useful setting for the veteran center to build rhythm and chemistry with […]
80 games in, the 2026 Knicks were still destination unknown. After thrashing Toronto 112-95 in game 81, the picture is clearer. The Celtics hammered the Pelicans 144-118, locking up the 2-seed, while the Cavaliers showed they’re already in playoff form, falling badly to the Hawks. The East top-four are set: Detroit, Boston, New York and […]
The New York Knicks (52*-28) host the Toronto Raptors (45-35) tonight at Madison Square Garden in their penultimate game of the regular season.

With the playoffs around the corner, questions and hypotheticals surrounding potential matchups have been a hot topic. While there are still a few potential outcomes, tonight’s matchup between the Knicks and Raptors could end up playing a large role in deciding who New York plays in the first round. So let’s break it down. If […]
Knicks fans really are among the worst. I have no idea where they get that the Celtics are ugly. Personally I think that the Celtics are among the better looking teams in the league. It was pretty funny that they trashed Josh Hart throughout the game. Every other comment was some kind of hate toward Hart. Then after he hit those threes at the end, suddenly he is great. I love when teams covet our coach and players. My favorites are in bold....
In the second game of a back-to-back, the Knicks (52*-28) host the Raptors (44-35) tonight at Madison Square Garden. New York ranks third in the Eastern Conference, while riding a four-game win streak and having beaten the Celtics in a thriller last night, 112-106. The Raptors are scrappy but inconsistent, in a three-horse race with […]
#1 – Boston defensive collapse The Celtics entered the game with the 7th-best half-court defense in the NBA, allowing 95.9 points per 100 possessions. Last night, the Knicks scored 122.5 points per 100 possessions in half-court situations. And the worst defensive stretch happened six minutes before the final buzzer, when the Knicks decided to hunt […]

Time to bag a couple more dubs, then get the real season started next Saturday or Sunday and extend it all the way to mid-June. Here’s the latest after your Knickerbockers broke Boston’s Harts on Thursday. Mike Brown On the win over Boston: “We did […]
The Raptors have one more road game, and one more home contest before the season is over, both against the two New York teams. The bad news: they’ve got to play the 52-win Knicks in Madison Square Garden, a must-win game to keep any type of breathing room between them at the Play-In. The good […]
Baylor Scheierman’s sixth 3-pointer against the New York Knicks on Thursday night brought the entire Boston Celtics bench to its feet. Jordan Walsh did the sharpshooter’s signature thumbs-up celebration, and Luka Garza bunny-hopped with excitement, watching him conquer Madison Square Garden. Scheierman’s step-back three over Karl-Anthony Towns gave the Celtics a 104-103 lead with 2:19 […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers are all but locked into the fourth seed in the Eastern Conference with the New York Knicks win over the Boston Celtics on Thursday evening. For the Cavs to move up, they’d have to win both of their last two games, while New York would have to lose their final two games. […]
A lot has to happen to get a bucket in the NBA. The right screen creates just enough space to free up the ball. A pass has to be on the money for a player to get a shot off. And even if everything goes right, it’s still a make-or-miss league where a 50% success […]
If the games will be anything like tonight’s affair, a Knicks-Celtics playoff series would be a gift from the basketball gods, no? Tonight, the Boston Celtics (54-26) came into Madison Square Garden to face the New York Knicks (52*-28). While Boston has essentially locked up the No. 2 seed, the Knicks are fighting to hold […]
The Boston Celtics traveled to New York to play the Knickerbockers for their 79th game of the season. Boston needed just a single win to secure a second place birth in the Eastern Conference playoffs. In a classic regular season contest, both team’s had runs and chances to close it out, but it was the […]
