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?
The Knicks have come out of the gates strongly by starting their season 2-0 after defeating the Sixers on Sunday.
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.
Thursday's Nets-Knicks opener at the Barclays Center has been rescheduled to be played on November 26.
Schmeelk says the Knicks can go as high as a two seed or as low as a sixth seed. Do you agree?
Twenty-four hours after defending his position, Nets and Barclays Center CEO Brett Yormark acknowledged Mayor Michael Bloomberg made "the right decision."
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.
The Nets' opener at Barclays Center won't go on as planned after all due to the devastating effects of megastorm Sandy.
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.
I'm not naive or stupid enough to think the Knicks are better without Amar'e Stoudemire, but they can be successful with him out of the lineup.
