Knicks’ loss to Bulls is a great sign for New York
Posted on 2 Feb 2012 by Michael Burke.
No coach will ever claim a moral victory. No player will ever claim a moral victory. Rarely will a fan claim a moral victory for their favorite team. I will not claim a moral victory for any of my favorite teams, no matter what the situation may be. The Knicks’ loss to the Bulls tonight, however, is a good sign. A very good sign. Amar’e Stoudemire led all scorers in the 105-102 Chicago win ...

Carmelo Anthony’s high value proven in Knicks loss to Heat
Posted on 27 Jan 2012 by Michael Burke.
Two things became very apparent during the Knicks’ hard fought 99-89 loss to the Miami Heat on Friday night. First off, the Knicks moved the ball better and had significantly better flow in their offense due to the absence of Carmelo Anthony. However, it was also proved that the Knicks cannot win a close game without Carmelo Anthony. Seems contradictory, does it not? Well, the Knicks played...

Knicks’ skid continues, lose sixth straight
Posted on 22 Jan 2012 by Michael Burke.
Following a double overtime loss to the Denver Nuggets tonight, the New York Knicks have now dropped six straight games and quickly caused concern throughout the Big Apple. Former Knick Danilo Gallinari led all scorers with 37 points, and Carmelo Anthony led the Knicks with 25 points. Anthony’s jump shot with 1.7 seconds left in regulation was able to get the Knicks into overtime, and made us...

Knicks win fourth straight
Posted on 12 Jan 2012 by Michael Burke.
After a rough start to the season, the Knicks are starting to figure it out. A win Wednesday night over the Sixers is the fourth straight for New York, and their biggest win on the year. Yes, it was the third and final game of a back to back to back for the Sixers, and yes, the Knicks were idle yesterday. Nonetheless, this victory was an impressive one for the Knicks over a Sixers team that rod...

Knicks defeat Pistons in convincing fashion
Posted on 8 Jan 2012 by Michael Burke.
Since their Christmas Day win over the Celtics, the Knicks have not had too much to smile about. The offense rarely even seemed like an offense, the defense was its usual atrocious self, and their undisciplined play resulted in a 3-4 record, which included losses to Toronto, Golden State, and Charlotte. Even their most recent win came over a winless Wizards team; a game in which Carmelo Anthony...

Knicks lose in disappointing fashion
Posted on 30 Dec 2011 by Michael Burke.
If there is one word to describe the performance of the New York Knicks in tonight’s game against the Lakers, it is frustration. Coming off a disappointing loss in Golden State, the Knicks were hoping to avenge it with a victory over the Lakers. This was not the case. The Knicks trailed right away, as the Lakers had a seven point advantage after the first quarter, which was opened up to twelv...

Knicks get big Christmas present
Posted on 25 Dec 2011 by Michael Burke.
It seemed like a repeat of Games 1 and 2 of last year’s NBA Quarterfinal between the Knicks and Celtics was brewing when the two teams met today; the Knicks lead at halftime and quickly coughed it up in the second half. But this time around, it was a proven different Knicks team, and a different outcome. After Carmelo Anthony knocked down two free throws, and Kevin Garnett missed a jumper at ...

Knicks Could Contend in Eastern Conference
Posted on 10 Dec 2011 by Michael Burke.
At this time two years ago, most Knick fans would tell you that the only way their team would contend anytime soon would be if they landed LeBron James in the upcoming summer. After signing Amar’e Stoudemire in early July, these same fans were hopeful that James would come to New York, but, as we all know, he decided to join forces with Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh in Miami. Suddenly, things on...

NBA Lockout Could Bring Some Positives to New York
Posted on 5 Sep 2011 by Michael Burke.
Knicks' Stars Anthony and Stoudemire in Practice With the NBA’s lockout unlikely to end anytime soon, it is looking as if there will not be an NBA season. I, and many other NBA fans across the country and world, will be extremely disappointed if there is not a season this year. However, there is something slightly positive that could come out of this for us Knicks fans. With a lockout ta...

‘Melo and the Knicks use big second half to take down Nets
Posted on 30 Mar 2011 by Daniel Sailofsky.
The Knicks came into this one needing a W, and that’s exactly what they got. Trailing the 76ers by three games going into this one, the Knicks needed this game badly to keep pace with Philly for the all important 6th seed in the East. The 76ers won last night, as did many of the teams trailing the Knicks, heightening the pressure for tonight’s matchup against New Jersey at the Garden. Havin...

Blood Drips, Bodies Fly, and the Knicks Lose
Posted on 22 Mar 2011 by Daniel Sailofsky.
I didn’t catch the entire Knicks-Celts game tonight, but from what I saw, this one was not for the faint at heart. This game was reminiscent of those extremely competitive, if a bit bloody, playoff series’ between the Knicks and Heat in the 90’s. Troy Murphy left with a bloody nose, Big Baby Davis got caught with a Carmelo Anthony elbow to the head, and Ray Allen was forced to briefly lea...

Can Amare and Melo coexist?
Posted on 20 Mar 2011 by Daniel Sailofsky.
When the Carmelo Anthony mega-deal was finally completed on February 21st, New York was ready to party. The Knicks had their own “Big Three” in Amare, Melo, and Chauncey Billups, and they were ready to take the East by storm. The problem is though, this hasn’t been the case. The Knicks have been a model of inconsistency since Melo’s arrival in the Big Apple. They’ve played .500 ball, ...
