The New York Knicks say new X-rays of Rasheed Wallace's left foot show a broken bone, and he is expected to miss another eight weeks.
De Blasio believes that holding the event at Barclays Center would be terrific for the continued growth and development of Brooklyn, but he also vehemently opposes MSG owner James Dolan being rewarded with the game.
Carmelo Anthony has undoubtedly been the "Best Knick in a Leading Role" all season. But he's not doing it alone.
The Knicks were sharp enough to build a couple of big leads and turn away the runs Philadelphia made, handing the 76ers their eighth straight road loss.
Knicks coach Mike Woodson didn't mince words when asked what went wrong for his team in the final minute of Friday night's narrow loss to Toronto. "I thought our shot selection was awful," Woodson said.
Woodson can't just expect Melo to elevate his team on the floor. Anthony is a great player and a gifted scorer, but he doesn't automatically make a team a champion. The coach needs to see -- from film, numbers or gut -- the writing on the wall.
General manager Glen Grunwald hopes the newly acquired Kenyon Martin can help New York achieve its goal -- an NBA championship.
The Knicks traded shooting guard/small forward Ronnie Brewer to the Oklahoma City Thunder for a second-round pick and cash considerations. New York also agreed in principle to sign 12-year veteran Kenyon Martin to a 10-day contract.
There's no other way to say it: Wednesday night's loss to the Pacers was a disgrace.
The Indiana Pacers looked ready for the playoffs. The New York Knicks looked like they wanted a longer All-Star break.
Knicks forward Amar'e Stoudemire created a mini-controversy Sunday when he touted Christopher Dorner's rambling manifesto as "a must read" on Twitter.
For Knicks fans, there might be some rumors over the next two days -- but don't expect any movement. Sometimes, that's for the better.
Those Iman Shumpert trade reports just won't go away.
Stoudemire has some explaining to do after calling alleged killer ex-cop Christopher Dorner's rambling manifesto "a must read" on Twitter.
Knicks forward Steve Novak will make his three-point contest debut tonight for the beginning of the NBA's All-Star Weekend in Houston, Texas.
Knicks small forward Carmelo Anthony will start in Sunday's NBA All-Star Game, multiple sources reported on Friday. Anthony was hurt early in the Knicks' 92-88 loss to Toronto on Wednesday.
King played with the Nets from 1977-1979 and with the Knicks from 1982-1987. He finished his career with New Jersey in 1993. The Brooklyn native was a four-time NBA All-Star and the 1985 NBA scoring champion.
The Knicks can still win an NBA championship if they make adjustments. They CAN beat the Heat. Will they? Let's see if the players and coach do what's necessary to do it.
Baseball's All-Star game is coming to Queens this year. Next February, we'll have a Super Bowl in East Rutherford, N.J. The NBA could complete the trifecta.
Anthony shouldn't even put himself in position to get drawn into the game. He needs to fly back home and take the weekend off. He needs to give the Knicks a chance.
"As bad as I would want to play in the All-Star game, participate, if I can't go, I can't go," the Knicks forward said. "Nothing I can do about that."
No big shots from Rudy Gay on this night. He hardly made any shots at all. Neither did Carmelo Anthony, bothered by what he called a dead arm after being hit in the biceps early in the game. Toronto won the battle of supporting casts, and the game.
Brooklyn has been linked to Hawks forward Josh Smith and Bobcats shooting guard Ben Gordon over the past week, and now general manager Billy King is shifting his focus to Jazz power forward Paul Millsap, according to a report.
"I think that's ridiculous that he would come out and say something like that," Chandler said at a Garden of Dreams Foundation event Monday night.
The scary things for Knicks fans is that these weaknesses aren't hard to see or diagnose. Every NBA team runs the pick-and-roll incessantly, and most have quick guards to get into the lane.
