Miles McBride may have played his way out of New York
Miles “Deuce” McBride arrived in New York as the 36th pick in the 2021 draft, a short-ish, square-jawed defender with a shaky jump shot. The inconsistent three-ball never worried Tom Thibodeau. The grizzled skipper loved watching a 6’2” guard stalk ballhandlers the length of the court, the basketball equivalent of a German shepherd harassing a […]
Friday Posted & Toasted Notes: King JB, Tacko Tuesday, GM KD
I thought I had a ton of content to include in the notes, then realized there were just a handful of bullet points to it, so I needed to wait a few days to pad it further. Maybe we’re not so close to the new season as I initially thought. “Imagine I get on this […]
SNY’s Ian Begley Reveals Two Knicks Free-Agent Targets for Final Roster Spots
The New York Knicks still have work to do before opening their NBA championship defense, with 13 players on guaranteed contracts and a particular need for additional depth behind their established centers. On Thursday, SNY’s Ian Begley reported that veterans Drew Eubanks and John Konchar are among the free agents on New York’s radar as […]
NBA investigation ends with LA Clippers sent 25 seasons back in time
The NBA’s nearly year-long investigation into the Los Angeles Clippers has ended with one of the harshest punishments in league history, sending the franchise back to territory last seen during Minnesota’s Joe Smith salary-cap scandal 25 seasons ago. In the words of Mark Cuban, “Congrats Pablo.“ The League has concluded that the Clippers violated salary-cap […]
Several current, former Knicks ball out in FIBA World Cup Qualifiers
I know it’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but I do really love international basketball. Really, I love all forms of national-team events. It’s the reason I watch the World Cup religiously and ignore soccer’s existence for much of the following four years. It’s why I tune in to a lot of sports I usually […]

The Diawara Question: Sifting through summer league noise
Summer League notoriously creates optical illusions. Hot shooting can spark irrational hype, while a cold stretch can trigger unnecessary panic. For Mohamed Diawara, the exhibition run landed directly into the panic bucket. Struggling to find a rhythm, the young wing looked disjointed offensively and out of sync with the game’s pace. Of course, context changes […]
Knicks Bulletin: ‘We don’t talk about the trophy’
We’re already into September, and that can only mean one thing: we’re back in business. Starting today, your freshest and first Bulletin of the 2027-28 NBA season. (Here’s a small bunch of quotes, because the calendar page might have flipped but it’s not that we’re already close to anything of importance.) Jalen Brunson On putting […]
(Late) August P&T mailbag: Best of the worst years, all-time Knicks vs. all-time Celtics & Juju Reese
September beckons, bitches. Let’s mailbag. What would your team look like if you assembled it from the stinky years of the 2000s-2010s? — Unmitigated Gall In order to tackle this question, I had to settle on what exactly “2000s-2010s” meant. We talking just the awful aughts, ending with the 2009-10 season? Or the whole stinking […]
The mysterious erasure of RJ Barrett
Really, how often do you remember Rowan Junior? Mayor Zohran Mamdani did. Speaking at the Knicks’ championship ceremony at City Hall on June 18, he made sure RJ Barrett’s name was included among those who helped build the title team: “This championship belongs to them too, because championships aren’t just built in one season. It […]

It’s a big day for Posting and Toasting. Today, the SB Nation app is live, and it’s the best way to follow the Knicks. You can download it by searching SB Nation for iOS or Android. A year ago we made some big changes to our community, including offering fewer ads and the addition of […]
Knicks Domino Effects: What if Jalen Brunson stayed in Dallas?
Domino effects are meant to start relatively small. The first two editions of the series, I feel like, encompassed that. We got really niche with the Mike Brown Kings saga and less niche with Julius Randle’s injury, but both of them required a lot of outside-the-box thinking to see directly what a reversal would’ve caused […]
Happy 30th Birthday, Cap!
Another Knick turns 30 this week! Days after Mikal Bridges reached the milestone, Captain Jalen Brunson celebrates his birthday today. Born August 31, 1996, in New Brunswick, New Jersey, the Knicks captain hits the 30-year mark about 11 weeks after delivering New York its first NBA championship since 1973 and earning Finals MVP. Brunson capped […]
Westchester dates Knicks fans should circle
Bummed out by the ticket prices at Madison Square Garden? Head over to the Westchester County Center in White Plains, where the jerseys look familiar and the seats are much more budget-friendly! The Westchester Knicks released their complete 2026–27 schedule Friday. They open with two road games against the Maine Celtics on November 6 and […]
Jose Alvarado believed, and now he’s an NBA champion
There are easier (and less surreal) ways to fulfill an NBA dream than the Jose Alvarado route. Go undrafted and fight your way onto a roster. Develop a reputation as a defensive menace on the court. Spend four and a half seasons in NOLA. Get traded home to New York mid-season. Help your favorite team […]
Friday Posted & Toasted Notes: International Knicks, KD & Dray & T-Mac talk too much
I let everybody down not publishing notes in a week, thinking there was nothing happening around the League but still saving clippings into a document that ended up growing monstrous. Won’t happen again, for my own health. “But now, I’m in New York. I feel like I have a home here, and I’m extremely happy.” […]
What should the Knicks do with a Karl-Anthony Towns extension?
As we go deeper into the dog days of the offseason, the Knicks are a team with relatively few questions. After all, they just won the title (still feels great to say that) and returned almost all of their production from that title run, but there are still things to discuss as we patiently wait […]
His name is Enes Kanter
Not a lot broke right for David Fizdale’s 2019 Knicks, but if a broke clock is right twice a day that’s 730 times a year, so even Fiz had his moments. One came a few months into another lost season, after he got over the shock of Kevin Durant and Zion Williamson not walking through […]
The Bruiser Refusing the Final Buzzer: Charles Oakley, MSG, and The Last Enforcer
The recent dismissal of Charles Oakley’s long-running lawsuit against Madison Square Garden marks a brutal collision between the unwritten code of loyalty and the court’s objective reality. For a third time, Judge Richard J. Sullivan of the Southern District of New York dismissed Oakley’s remaining assault and battery claims. The nine-year battle stemming from the […]
Josh Hart talks Scouting America ambassadorship, championship run
The champs have been busy this offseason, continuing their media tours with new sponsorships, talk shows, and overall just enjoying the best few months anyone could ask for as kings of their respective worlds. The extra media attention has given us some pretty cool opportunities at P&T. Kento talked to Karl-Anthony Towns last month, Russ […]
On This Date in Knicks History: Julius Randle re-commits to New York
Ahhh, the 2020–21 season. I remember it well. After years as a punchline, the Knicks unexpectedly became competitive under first-year, veteran coach Tom Thibodeau and breakout star Julius Randle. They finished with a winning record, earned the fourth seed in the Eastern Conference, and returned to the postseason. Randle’s stellar season (24.1 points, 10.2 rebounds, […]
Less splash, more dribble
Do you have a retirement plan? A 401(k)? Is your portfolio properly diversified? Have you considered when you might retire, maybe leaving yourself time to walk into the sunset with some quality years still ahead of you? Or do you plan to cling to a job you enjoy for as long as you can, before […]
Friday Posted & Toasted Notes: Hungry KAT, paid Hart, talkative Shaq
Not the strongest of posts, but better than none. Here’s the latest I’ve gathered from across the interwebs in the past few days. Enjoy and comment! “I’m hungrier than ever to get the second one—I’ve said before, I’ll do anything to win that first one. If I was willing to do whatever it took to […]
The definitive top Knicks head coaches of all-time
One of the many high points of X-Men ‘97 comes late in season one, after Charles Xavier condescends to Magneto one time too many. It’s a theme the show develops further in season two: Xavier, whose status as an educator is so central to his identity everybody calls him Professor X (even in another galaxy, […]
What Josh Hart’s next contract could mean for the Knicks
The Knicks’ historic championship run cemented Karl-Anthony Towns as one of the best big men in the league. So it’s only right that a lot of the offseason talks surrounding potential extensions have centered around the center, no pun intended. But it’s also important to note that Josh Hart also became extension eligible on August […]
