There have been many Game Threads and other posts published here at P&T that have generated thousands upon thousands of comments. Yesterday’s was one for the ages, such as the Knicks 104-101 win over the Philly Cheesesteaks. I didn’t want to be nitpicky with the headline on this historic day, so I just went into the comments section and picked the single post with the most likes among them all, courtesy of Kappo_Cocoa-24: “We just Reggie Millered the Sixers.“ Absolutely spot-on, even more so...
In Game 1 of the 2024 playoffs, the New York Knicks (50-32) will host the Philadelphia 76ers (47-35). New York won the season series 3-1, and beat the Sixers 106-79 in their last meeting on March 12. Of course, Mo Bamba started at center for the Phillies in that tilt; this time, they’ll have the NBA’s reigning MVP Joel Embiid back in the starting lineup. No sweat. Tip-off is 6 pm EST on MSG and ESPN. This is your game thread. This is Liberty Ballers. Please don’t post large photos, GIFs, or...
The Knicks keep getting ready for the start of their series against the Sixers tipping off on Saturday evening. So does Philly, who had to beat Miami (and did so by a tiny one-point margin) in the Play-In Tournament to reach the playoffs and the right to try and beat the No. 2 seed New York while getting the No. 7 for themselves. Consider this a little, special edition of our Knicks Bulletin only in this case covering a bunch of stuff said and heard from the enemy lines. Here’s everything we...
In their final game of the regular season, the New York Knicks (49-32) hosted the Chicago Bulls (39-42) in a matinee at Madison Square Garden. The Bulls had the ninth seed of the Eastern Conference locked down, while the Knicks were aiming to secure either the second, third, or fourth spots and their 50th win. No pressure. In a close game where neither team was particularly dominant—including a 21-19 (NY) second-quarter—Donte DiVincenzo led the Knicks with 17 first-half points to help them take...
We’ve made it to the last game of the regular season! Happy Sunday to you, Knicks fans. Today our heroes (49-32) face the Chicago Bulls (39-42) in a matinee at Madison Square Garden. When I looked last, half their team and almost all their starters were “game-time decisions.” Must be resting up for their play-in. Victory is ours! Tip-off is 1 pm EST on MSG and ESPN2.

Playing the final game of the regular season, the New York Knicks (49-32) will square off with the Chicago Bulls (39-42) in a Sunday matinee at Madison Square Garden. The Knicks won here on Friday night, pulling out a win against a feisty Brooklyn Nets team. Meanwhile, the Bulls barely held off the Wizards, 129 to 127. Chicago has won two straight (Detroit, Washington) and five of their last ten. New York has won two of their three previous matchups with the Bulls. The Knicks last beat the...
After dropping the hammer on the Celtics last night in Boston, the New York Knicks (49-32) hosted the Brooklyn Nets (32-49) tonight. Were they tired? They looked it. The Knicks stunk to start, missing shots, dragging their heels on defense, and falling behind 30-14 by the close of the first quarter. They gained momentum in the second with improved shooting from three-point range and closed the gap to nine points by halftime. After intermission, Jalen Brunson and OG Anunoby led the team to win...
