It may've been the garbage Rockets, but this was a significant game for the Knicks to win with Miami right behind them and also coming to town tomorrow night. The Knicks did very well offensively against the Rockets last night, and their defense did pick up in the second half. I loved what we got from Quickley, Hartenstein, and Deuce in particular. The offense had great flow to it. Will Quickley win Sixth Man? We talk!

NYY-NYK-MMA Question of the Day: True or False? With this win, the Knicks have now prevailed in seven straight games against the Rockets?

It's looking grim right now with little margin to turn things around. Fortunately, the Knicks are still in the driver's seat, but they better be careful. The Knicks lost to a bad Magic team last night and allowed them to host a three-point contest for themselves in the fourth quarter. The Knicks were destroyed in the pick-and-pop late, they didn't rotate quick enough, and got some terrible efforts on both sides of the ball from RJ & Julius playing without Brunson. We break it all down!

That was some of the worst defense I've seen a professional basketball team play. The Knicks choked in crunch time, but they also played horrendous defense in every single second of those 48 minutes last night. Absolutely appalling, and we talk about it... for as long as we could stomach it. Shorter ep. But enjoy...

The Knicks did it again. They managed to defeat another very tough team by taking down the Denver Nuggets at MSG yesterday. Great play from the bench but also contributions by the Knicks three top scorers helped win this game. We talk about Hartenstein's turnaround, RJ Barrett's recent surge at the basket, the Knicks' legitimacy, and more.
