Gregg Popovich only has one job: winning a championship.
The Knicks aren't even the best team in NYC. That handle belongs to a squad in Brooklyn.
All those comparisons to John Starks seemed premature, but the 2012-13 J.R. Smith is finally deserving of being compared to one of the most popular Knicks of all-time.
The Knicks know how to win ugly and well -- that's beautiful.
Always an infuriating figure... J.R. Smith is finally blossoming in his second year as a Knick.
This is as good a weekend as any to see if the Nets learned anything from their initial missteps. I want to see the Nets step on the Magic's throat and not let go until the game is safely out of reach. Study the Heat film for tips.
Dwyane Wade scored 22 points on 10 for 14 shooting, LeBron James finished two assists shy of a triple-double and the Miami Heat improved to 4-0 at home for the first time in franchise history by beating the Brooklyn Nets 103-73 on Wednesday night.
"This team is different," center Brook Lopez said. "You can see it in the reactions of the guys in here already. This team will respond."
"January, February is what we're aiming for," Shumpert said. "I'm just trying to get healthy. When I get healthy, I'll return to the court. I'm not going to come back and not be able to do the things I did last year and a little more. I want to come back and add something.''
Some Knicks fans might be wondering: Who the heck is this guy?
The Knicks have come out of the gates strongly by starting their season 2-0 after defeating the Sixers on Sunday.
Amazing indeed -- and on a night when the wounds of Superstorm Sandy were still firmly in our minds.
Carmelo Anthony had 30 points and 10 rebounds, and the Knicks gave suffering New Yorkers something to cheer with a 104-84 victory over the Miami Heat in their storm-delayed season opener Friday night.
With New York hit hard by Superstorm Sandy, the Knicks' game scheduled for Thursday in Brooklyn was postponed, and Heat players thought theirs would follow.
We know exactly what kind of person Wade is, if we didn't know already. He could care less about anyone else's suffering. He only wants to know how it will affect his life.
I want to see if the Knicks can do a better job slowing down LeBron James and Dwyane Wade. Both players got into the lane way too easily last year against the Knicks. The Knicks have to play the pick-and-roll better and improve their individual defense.
"3 hour traffic just to get into the NY city . . . #C'monMan," Wade tweeted -- and later deleted.
LeBron James and the champs. Opening night at MSG. Under normal circumstances, as electric a scene as there is in the NBA. Things are still far from normal in New York.
The Knicks are going to have a shot at making some noise in the watered down Eastern Conference, and the Brooklyn Nets may very well be a playoff team as well.
It was an honest mistake from Stern. But the crowd heard it -- and then he heard it from the crowd.
With the NBA season kicking off on Wednesday, here's my preview and ranking predictions for the 2012-2013 NBA season. This is how I see the Eastern Conference breaking down, and my season award winners.
I will miss one thing: Jeff Van Gundy ranting about floppers during national telecasts. I guess we can't have it all.
For better or for worse, the Knicks' window to win is now and it's up to Carmelo Anthony to lead them.
Former Knicks' center Josh Harrellson has joined the NBA champion Miami Heat
The Knicks' offseason has been nearly as crazy as their season. But with the final pieces in place, it's finally time to take a look at their roster and figure out exactly how good they are.
