WINGSTOP WAS OPEN IN MEMPHIS 34 POINTS 6 ASSISTS 5 REBOUNDS 4 BLOCKS 1 STEAL GAME-WINNING SHOT AND GAME-WINNING DEFENSE 💥🔒

A MITCH SIGHTING IN MEMPHIS Brunson: 23p/7r/6a/3s/1b OG: 19p/3r/3a/1s/2b Deuce: 17p/4r/3a/2s Bridges: 15p/2r/3a/2b Hart: 12p/4r/6a/1s/1b KAT: 11p/7r/2a/1b

“It’s possible Thibodeau can elevate a group from the dregs to the fourth-best team in the league, but not beyond that.” But is that so bad? @matthewmiranda.bsky.social explores Thibs’ Knicks legacy as it currently stands—title-less. Read: www.thestrick.land/strick/so-wh...

The Knicks’ sixth man has been one of their most impactful players this season. Why isn’t he seeing the floor more? “Just let Deuce loose,” says guest contributor @maxwildstein.bsky.social in his latest: www.thestrick.land/strick/just-...

What do the Celtics, Bucks, Warriors and Raptors all have in common? Each won a title at some point in the past 6 years, each after moving on from a coach who’d led them out of the wilderness and into contention. More from @matthewmiranda.bsky.social: www.thestrick.land/strick/celti...

I think I might be over Thibs www.thestrick.land/strick/celti...

"Whether you’re encouraged or discouraged by the Knicks’ latest smackdown loss vs. "the Big 3," you’re right to feel that way." StacyPatton89 recaps Friday's NYK/CLE and zooms out on where the loss fits in with what we've learned this season: www.thestrick.land/strick/no-sk...

When the personal is political, existence = resistance

“Everything about this team, its process and its ethos screams ‘Endure, then overcome.’ Entropy’s tough to beat, but the Knicks don’t need to win that battle today.” @matthewmiranda.bsky.social preaches patience and persistence in today’s recap. www.thestrick.land/strick/knick...

NEVER A DOUBT 🤣 BACK IN THAT W COLUMN! KAT: 32p/18r DEUCE: 23p/6r/3a/3s/3b JALEN: 22p/12a MIKAL: 13p/10r/5a/2b

I wrote about Mitchell Robinson and the Mitchell Robinson-sized hole in the Knicks roster he could fill nicely

Mitchell Robinson has particular skills. The Knicks have particular needs. See where this is going? Ahead of his impending season debut, Matthew Miranda examines New York's 7-foot, 240-pound hole in the middle: www.thestrick.land/strick/mitch...

Just when we thought we'd seen it all from Jalen Brunson in his first two seasons with the Knicks, The Captain reached another level in year three. Guest contributor @maxwildstein.bsky.social broke down Brunson's historic third season in New York: www.thestrick.land/strick/jalen...

send to that special someone 🫶

HEADED TO THE BREAK WITH A W! *wipes forehead* KAT: 44p/10r JB: 36p/8a PRECIOUS (!!!): 26p, 8r JOSH: 18p/10r/6a

“…the Knicks were out-running and out-transitioning the Pacers. Nobody likes a taste of their own medicine.” @prezidente.bsky.social recaps New York’s wire-to-wire win in Indiana: www.thestrick.land/strick/knick...

The Knicks, 35-18, have their best 53-game record since 1997 and are about to add the best offensive rebounder in the league 🔥

KAT & the Krew clean up in Indy! KAT: 40p/12r/5a/3s Josh: 30p/10r/5a Deuce: 15p/3r/1b Shamet: 11p/4a/1s Precious: 9p/12r

Two years ago today, the Knicks traded a package centered around Cam Reddish and a first-round pick to Portland for Josh Hart It worked out well

🚨TODAY AT 2 PM EST 🚨 @shwinnypooh.bsky.social & @londonstheory.bsky.social will be joined by Kris Pursiainen of ClutchPoints to react to the chaos of the NBA Trade Deadline! Meet us here: www.youtube.com/live/l2sh_g-...

The Knicks are acquiring veteran guard Delon Wright from Milwaukee in exchange for Jericho Sims, per multiple reports

From pick No. 58 to four seasons at The Mecca. Thank you, Jericho 💙🧡

Interestingly enough, 大头 was also the name of my mother-in-law's cat. @sethrosenthal.bsky.social

Jalen Brunson’s nickname in China loosely translates to “Big Head,” according to fan on Knicks Reddit 😭 A commenter says it translates to Big Head-son (a play on the name Brunson), and the direct translation would be "Big Head Forest"

KAT's fourth 20/20 game of the season 🔥

“New York is 33-17 and third in the Eastern Conference with 32 games to go. For all our angst and perpetuated plight, that’s pretty good, no?” @cologneloring.bsky.social recaps a Brunson Barrage over the Houston Rockets: www.thestrick.land/strick/clutc...

42 POINTS 10 ASSISTS 6 REBOUNDS 2 STEALS IF YA DON’T KNOW, NOW YA KNOW

Jalen Green tonight: 9-of-22 FG 1-of-8 3PT 6 turnovers MIKAL BRIDGES CLAMPS

HOUSTON? BRUNSON IS A PROBLEM #3 IN THE EAST TAKES DOWN #3 IN THE WEST! JALEN: 42p/6r/10a/2s MIKAL: 22p/5a KAT: 22p/9r JOSH: 19p/7r/5a

WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED? The Knicks, again, won the Porzingis trade. The latest from Matthew Miranda on the Knicks, the Mavericks, the Lakers, and hyphenated Utah Jazz... www.thestrick.land/strick/laker...

One year ago, today: “BORN TO PLAY BASKETBALL.”

Brian Windhorst says Mitchell Robinson's return from injury could be viewed like a trade deadline acquisition and that has been a "common refrain" from the Knicks organization "for months" "Their deadline acquisition is Mitchell Robinson" (via The Hoop Collective)

On this day, 6 years ago: New York agreed to on a deal to send Trey Burke, Tim Hardaway Jr., Courtney Lee, and Kristaps Porzingis to Dallas in exchange for Dennis Smith Jr., DeAndre Jordan, and two future first-round picks.

“For once when the stakes are at their highest come May and June, the Knicks are a team everybody else has to have answers for.” @matthewmiranda.bsky.social recaps New York’s season-series sweeping win over the Nuggets: www.thestrick.land/strick/knick...

30 POINTS 15 ASSISTS (2 TURNOVERS) 4 REBOUNDS 2 STEALS 1 BLOCK +16 BREAK THE HONEY OUT NEW YORK JALEN BRUNSON DOES THIS

5 OF THEM THANGS ‼️ JB: 30p/15a OG: 23p/4r KAT: 14p/10r/5a Josh: 15p/5r/5a Mikal: 13p

I love how the article is half about the author, and half about a ballplayer we both admire. That seems appropriate, when the player is Josh Hart

“Hart’s today is only possible because of a series of decisions he made in those stops with the Blazers, Lakers, Pelicans, and even the Knicks, through waves of change.” @cologneloring.bsky.social talks a career-year for Josh Hart is in his latest: www.thestrick.land/strick/vigor...

I wrote about 3 Knick point guards, 3 sequences from last night's W & how each represents the best of this year's team

“That’s how some teams break through. They don’t ask. They just know when it’s time. Nights like last suggest this could be theirs.” @matthewmiranda.bsky.social recaps a Knicks routing of the Grizzlies: www.thestrick.land/strick/knick...

this is a TITANIC ass whooping. my goodness.

A MONDAY NIGHT MASSACRE AT THE GARDEN 🤯 THE KNICKS TEAR APART THE GRIZZLIES IN THEIR MOST DOMINANT WIN OF THE YEAR MIKAL: 28p/5г/6a KAT: 24p/11r JB: 20p/6a OG: 15p DEUCE: 14p

Thibs had the guys PREPARED for Memphis' pace. It's difficult to explain just how fast this team has played all season and how effective it's been and they got very little early in the shot clock. That was a championship level defensive half. Let's keep it up

The Grizzlies, second in the league in turnovers/gm at 16.7, already have 14 at halftime The Knicks have 10 steals, well above their season's average of 7.7/gm

Clyde Frazier on Josh Hart's triple-doubles: "He's making me look bad, Mike! He's gonna break my record!"

No 👍🏾

Karl-Anthony Towns and Jalen Brunson are the first pair of Knicks to start in the same All-Star Game since Clyde Frazier and Earl Monroe in 1975 🤯

JALEN BRUNSON IS A 2025 NBA ALL-STAR 🌟
