Having now surpassed the All-Star break and trade deadline, the NBA season now heads into the stretch run. Naturally, ticket prices for premier large market teams, especially those on the bubble, are through the roof.
As much as many Knicks fans were frustrated by the team's lack of movement on Thursday to try to make a playoff run, they should see it from a different point of view.
The NBA trade deadline came and went without the Knicks making any type of move. Make of that what you will.
Iman Shumpert has survived the trade deadline. But he won't be playing for the Knicks anytime soon. The Knicks say Shumpert will miss about two weeks with a sprained ligament in his left knee.
They have veteran players underperforming, few youngsters with potential and no draft picks to trade in the near future. It's tough to make a trade when that's the case -- which for the Knicks might actually be a good thing.
Iman Shumpert sprained his left knee, the same one which sustained a torn ACL in his rookie year, when he tried to come to a stop while driving to the basket in the third quarter.
Carmelo Anthony capped a 42-point performance with three clutch baskets in the last two minutes, and the Knicks snapped a three-game skid with a 98-91 victory over the New Orleans Pelicans on Wednesday night.
What a way to start a Thursday!
All the Knicks have left is the future, and they must protect their assets that can help them when the future arrives. Hardaway, Jr. is first on that list. Dealing him would be a dire mistake.
It's no secret the Knicks want to upgrade at the point guard position. So how about a little Linsanity, the sequel?
Not to be left out, Derek Jeter is scheduled to meet the media later today to talk about the Yankees upcoming season and his pending retirement. Juicy stuff...
Four days aftersaying he'd take a pay cut to help the Knicks improve their roster going forward, Carmelo Anthony said Tuesday he expects the front office to keep him informed as Thursday's trade deadline approaches.
According to a report, general manager Steve Mills is looking to upgrade the point-guard position in an effort to salvage what is, at this point, a lost season.
How is it humanly possible that the Knicks have not sat down with the foundation of their franchise? How have they not asked him about the future and what kind of teammates he wants to play with?
The Knicks commence their 2013-14 campaign with a tilt in Memphis tonight with the Grizzlies and a lot of questions about their future.
Anthony sounds like he'll give the Knicks a legit shot. But there's the possibility that he's creating cover for himself with a scenario where he can leave New York without looking like the bad guy.
Nobody knows anything. That should be the mantra from now on when it comes to prognosticating about Carmelo Anthony's future.
"I think you have to be in a place that you have a chance to win a championship. I think Carmelo loves New York, but I would tell him, 'Let's try to get some place where you can win this thing.'"
Without many valuable assets to trade, one that can still bring something valuable back in a deal is Tyson Chandler.
In overtime, the camera on MSG's broadcast caught point guard Raymond Felton yawning during a timeout. It was a long, tired yawn. The Knicks trailed 104-98 with 32.9 seconds left.
With a thick veil of secrecy surrounding Madison Square Garden at all times, there's no way of figuring out what the Knicks organization is actually thinking at any given moment.
