Thursday is an exciting day for Knicks fans -- not only because the team is playing in London against the Pistons.
The Knicks are in the British capital to play a regular-season NBA game against the Detroit Pistons on Thursday, the second time the league has come to London for a meaningful game.
If Knicks owner James Dolan is listening to what Carmelo Anthony has to say in London, he'll probably be happy to hear it.
Knicks guard Iman Shumpert is expected to make his season debut for New York on Thursday, and he might even start for the Atlantic Division leaders.
I am an admitted, ardent Knicks hater and a rabid Carmelo Anthony detractor. But I've got his back on this Kevin Garnett deal. I'm good with Anthony stalking Garnett after the game. In fact, I'm disappointed that he didn't bring a tire iron.
If I went in-depth on all of the Knicks' problems you'd be looking at a 10-page dissertation. The list is that long. But the Knicks have only one game in seven days, and this is valuable time that should be used to get things right.
What exactly is going on at Madison Square Garden?

The Knicks' defense has been getting worse by the week, and Mike Woodson isn't helping things. If the switching continues, the Knicks will find themselves giving up 100 points or more in many games the rest of the season.
Anthony said he sought out Garnett after the Knicks' loss to Boston on Monday night so they could discuss it. He would not elaborate on what was said.
Garnett baited Anthony like no one else in the league can, and Melo responded by biting down on the hook like an untested rookie who forgot he was playing in the NBA and not on some playground in Baltimore.
Nothing has been going wrong for the Knicks and Anthony. Until last night when the Boston Celtics came to town.
Anthony didn't just lose Monday's heated game against Boston. He lost his cool, and the league could penalize the Knicks' leading scorer for his postgame antics.
Carmelo Anthony and Kevin Garnett jawed from baseline to midcourt, and Anthony still had more to say. So the Knicks forward went toward the Celtics locker room after the game to keep shouting.
Carmelo Anthony scored 40 points as the Knicks defeated the Magic in Orlando 114-106. The Knicks have won two straight overall and four in a row over the Magic, dating back to last season.
