Knicks now up 19 ... young guns on the Jazz panicked as soon as the Knicks took the lead at the end of the 3rd quarter and couldn't recover

Utah in free fall. Knicks finally playing defense. They can't let up, foot on the gas all the way now

Knicks go into the 4th up 2 after being down 18. Great, but this shouldn't have been such an uphill climb. And it's still far from over.

What's really disturbing to me about the Knicks lately is JB is no longer automatic with the mid-range jumper. Sometimes he makes up for that by dishing the ball but that's often not enough.

Knicks leaving the back door wide open.

Utah leads the Knicks by 18. Just an embarrassing performance so far... turnovers, soft defense, no answer for 3s, poor shot selection, etc etc etc. No bright spots at all.

Columbia-LIU was a big rivalry back in the day.

BTW, I was the school paper's top editor when LIU hoops made the NCAA tournament for the first time in decades. They were not happy with me when I gave the paper's athlete of the year award to a soccer player. But he was a true student-athlete.

My alma mater, LIU, won the NEC championship. Coached by former Knick Rod Strickland, in case you didn't know.

BTW, they were the Blackbirds when I went there. Now they're the Sharks. I'm still rooting for the Blackbirds.

Knicks squandered far too many opportunities. This was a winnable game but they were their own worst enemy.

Well, at least I didn't spend multiple hundreds of dollars to watch it IRL in Inglewood.

About time the Knicks went on a run. Now they gotta get the TOs under control.

Turnovers! #Knicks are beating themselves with turnovers!

Seems like every time the #Knicks get close they commit an unforced error. Sloppy play.

#Knicks crapped the bed in 3rd

#Knicks finally showing signs of life after a very lackluster first half. 3 fouls on Luka doesn’t hurt.

So now that Daylight Savings Time is here, will my usual Sunday evening cocktail be classified as day drinking?

Knicks 142 Nuggets 103. That's a spanking.

I know Nuggets played last night, and back to backs are tough for any team, but TBH I did not expect the Knicks to roll into Denver and serve up an ass whuppin'

Knicks going into the 4th up 25. Just dominating.

Knicks now up 19. They've shut down everyone but the Joker, and even he can't hit from 3. That can turn around fast with him, though, Knicks gotta keep up the pressure.

07.03.2026 03:50 πŸ‘ 2 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 0 πŸ“Œ 0

Knicks D + OG = negative Jokic.

Knicks up 13. That was an impressive quarter. Knicks did a great job drawing fouls … Nuggets now tentative on defense.

Knicks are just flat-out ballin' right now.

07.03.2026 03:02 πŸ‘ 1 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 0 πŸ“Œ 0

So Bridges gets teed up for a minor shove but no flagrant or a T for KAT getting hit in his junk. Right.

07.03.2026 02:51 πŸ‘ 0 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 0 πŸ“Œ 0

Getting hit in the jewels should be an automatic flagrant, no matter what the intent

Could've been a lot worse for the Knicks in the 1st quarter. Only down 2. Mitch is in beast mode.

Always glad to see Monica McNutt on the TV broadcast for the #Knicks. Like her better than the usual guys.
