Always an infuriating figure... J.R. Smith is finally blossoming in his second year as a Knick.
The basket was shaking and Tyson Chandler was screaming, definitely toward though maybe not at the voices he recognized near the Dallas bench. His more important words came long before that dunk that helped the Knicks put away the Mavericks.
The Lakers handed Mike Brown the pink slip after 5 games and will undoubtedly turn to Phil Jackson as their first choice replacement.
Carmelo Anthony might be the engine of the Knicks, but the veterans around him are the GPS.
Felton joined Boomer and Craig this morning (while his personal chef prepared his breakfast) to talk about how this stint with the Knicks is going to be different.
I realize that the Knicks won't maintain their three-point shooting. I know we still haven't seen Carmelo Anthony and Amar'e Stoudemire play together yet. But I truly believe that this team is for real, and here's why.
Election Day is not usually about sports, but it's time to credit our past presidents for the biggest sports events that occurred during their times in office.
It would've been an easy PR move -- and a wise marketing decision -- for the Knicks to bring back Jeremy Lin. But Raymond Felton has the offense running on all cylinders.
"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.''
For all the cracks made about New York's aging roster, those old-timers sure know how to win. Carmelo Anthony scored 21 points and JR Smith had 17 to help keep the Knicks perfect in a 110-88 win over the Philadelphia 76ers on Monday night.
If Anthony continues to play with this sort of ferocity and focus on both ends of the floor, the sky is the limit for him and the Knicks. It won't matter that Amar'e Stoudemire comes back.
Some Knicks fans might be wondering: Who the heck is this guy?

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.

It's distraction. That's all. It's just a little thing. But sports helps keep us sane, even amid the madness and grief.
May Sandy make you stronger, if not wiser. It's not too late to hop the Hudson, or even the East River, to claim a new hoops allegiance. The Knicks will never have the knack.
