Stephen Curry torched the New York Knicks for 54 points Wednesday night, sending the most potent of “what could have been” messages possible. As I’m sure most remember, the Knicks had their sights set on Curry in the 2009 NBA draft, but the Golden State Warriors took him seventh overall. Adding insult to injury was [...]
The New York Knicks aren’t using Amar’e Stoudemire enough, or even correctly. This isn’t one of those “The Knicks need to start Stoudemire” rants. I, like most, understand that Carmelo Anthony is best at the power forward position and, therefore, Amar’e is best served coming off the bench. That said, there’s an issue with his [...]
Anything can happen leading into the NBA trade deadline, but that hardly means everything we hear will. As such we must take Alex Kennedy of HOOPWROLD’s latest report that the New York Knicks are targeting Josh Smith with a grain of salt: Every year at the trade deadline, there is at least one move that [...]
30-15. The Knicks may not be in the immediate conscience of the NBA media anymore (they were essentially getting Lakers coverage for all of two months), but they still stand at a record of 30-15. And they’re still doing it with some unorthodox basketball. If someone-hell, an alien-were to watch basketball for the very first [...]
Kenyon Martin and the New York Knicks continue to dance around and toward each other. According to Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports, the Knicks are once again considering signing the veteran power forward: As Rasheed Wallace’s foot injury lingers, the New York Knicks are showing a renewed interest in free-agent forward Kenyon Martin, league sources [...]
Amar’e Stoudemire has a long way to go, but that’s no reason for the New York Knicks to panic. The six-time All-Star returned to New York’s rotation on New Year’s Day, as the Knicks fell to the Portland Trail Blazers 105-100. He played just 17 minutes, was an unimpressive 3-of-8 from the field and finished [...]
The New York Knicks are old. And injured. And in desperate need of some serious help. But that’s no reason to rush Amar’e Stoudemire back to the floor. As I continue to reiterate, Stoudemire’s presence on the hardwood stands to be a blessing for these Knicks—if he’s ready. And per Peter Botte of the New [...]
The New York Knicks need Amar’e Stoudemire bad. Like really bad. I’m not going to sit here and attempt to explain the intricacies of re-integrating him into the lineup and how it will only help the Knicks—I’ve already done that. What I will sit here and gladly admit to you is that New York is [...]
The New York Knicks received some very good news on Monday night. Or bad news, depending upon which side of Carmelo Anthony’s fence you stand on. According to Frank Isola of the New York Daily News, Amar’e Stoudemire has been cleared for full-contact practice and could return for the Knicks as soon as Friday when [...]
