Sorry, Mike Woodson. Despite Woodson still being in the New York Knicks’ employ, the team’s head coaching position has long been considered available. With Phil Jackson now running the show—or doing whatever it is he’ll actually be doing—that hasn’t changed. If Woodson is still haunting New York’s sidelines next season, it will likely be as [...]

Whoa. All we can say to this is, “Whoa.” Amid all this Phil Jackson and James Dolan business, some of us have forgotten about Carmelo Anthony’s impending free agency. Sort of. It’s been tabled, really. Anthony’s future cannot be dealt with until July, so there’s no use focusing on it now. More pressing things, such [...]

Enough Phil Jackson talk. Let’s discuss Andrea Bargnani. You know Bargs. The bouncy-haired Italian who hasn’t played since Jan. 22. The one the New York Knicks gave up three draft picks, Steve Novak, Marcus Camby and Quentin Richardson for. Yeah, that Bargs. Well, according to Bleacher Report’s Howard Beck, Bargs is with the Knicks largely [...]

Three cheers, eight fist-pumps and infinite twerks for movement. The NBA is rife with movement this week. Goliaths fell, Davids ascended and the enfeebled experienced success. Translation: It’s been weird in the NBA lately. (Spoiler alert.) (Seriously.) (Don’t read what comes next if you don’t want to ruin the below contents.) (I’m not joking.) (Okay, [...]

Phil Jackson apparently wants the world if he’s to sync up with the ever-dysfunctional New York Knicks. Rumors have flooded the airwaves, papers and Internet, most of them pointing toward the same thing: a union between the Zen Master and championship-starved, James Dolan-owned Knicks. But with all that’s going around, you’d have expected it to [...]

New York Knicks head coach Mike Woodson isn’t happy that the Chicago Bulls’ Joakim Noah is trying to sell Carmelo Anthony on The Windy City. Because, duh. ESPN’s Chris Broussard brought word on Thursday that Noah started selling Anthony on Chicago while the two were in New Orleans for the NBA All-Star Game: Well, over [...]

The NBA’s Eastern Conference is good, man. Just kidding. It’s awful. All kinds of awful. The most awfullest thing ever. Picture the worst meal you’ve ever ate. Then envision yourself eating said meal alongside your most insufferable ex. And then imagine what it would feel like if that meal and rendezvous took place in the [...]

Carmelo Anthony is blind. You knew he was frustrated, what with the New York Knicks losing at warped paces. You knew he was probably even hardened, deadened to the fact that the Knicks are this listless and browbeaten one season after winning 54 games. But I bet you didn’t know he was blind to the [...]

More than one person is at fault for the New York Knicks. From the front office to the sidelines, there is no shortage of scapegoats. Coach Mike Woodson’s stubbornness, owner James Dolan’s attempt to dabble in business dealings he knows nothing about, J.R. Smith’s poor play, Raymond Felton’s poor shooting and defense and Tyson Chandler’s [...]

Will J.R. Smith ever learn? Vince Carter doesn’t care. Early in the fourth quarter of the Dallas Mavericks 110-108 victory over the New York Knicks Monday night, Smith yanked Carter’s headband as he was running down the court. Why? Because he’s J.R. Smith, headband-tugging, shoelace-untying extraordinaire. Video of the “incident” can be seen below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D1lvd2VtY5Q#t=10 [...]
