The Knicks took down the Rockets tonight in Houston. With many players still in protocol (Knox the latest) and D-Rose hurt for the second half, Thibs was forced to go to the youth again. Big performances from Immanuel Quickley and Miles "Deuce" McBride led the backcourt. And Mitchell Robinson looked stellar at the five, especially in the second half. I break down their performances, talk more on J...

The Knicks can't figure it out and the season looks pretty grim at this point. I discuss the Warriors game, Curry's ridiculous midgame celebration in the first quarter, my issues with Tom Thibodeau's offense and rotation, and more. NYY-NYK Question of the Day: Name the four teams the Knicks faced in their 1998-99 playoff run (in order).

The Knicks continue to lose. The season gets more dim and hopeless by the day that I am losing motivation to even say the same old things: play the kids. Also, Anthony, Mike, and I get together to make our predictions for UFC 269 and more. NYY-NYK Question of the Day: What was the infamous way that Pat Riley left the Knicks in 1995?

The Knicks took an abysmal loss on Saturday to the Nuggets but bounced back nicely in San Antonio on Tuesday night. We break the two games down and also go over the roster with our quarterly progress reports. NYY-NYK Question of the Day: True or False? Of the two times the Knicks won 60 regular season games, they failed to win the Finals in each of those years.

They were both tight battles but both ones the Knicks lost. New York dropped two straight games this week against the Nets and the Suns. We go over everything from the officiating to Thibodeau's rotation to the offense and defense of this roster, and more. NYY-NYK Question of the Day: How many players from the 1953-54 Knicks went on to become pro or college coaches?

Earlier this afternoon the Knicks broke the news that Kemba Walker will be booted from the starting lineup and rotation. Thibodeau says it's for the time being and that the Knicks want some size in there. We briefly analyze the move in this emergency episode.  NYY-NYK Question of the Day: True or False? Tim Hardaway Jr. ranks top-10 in Knicks history for three-pointers made.

After taking a pitiful loss to the Suns on Friday night, the Knicks bounced back with what may've been their best victory of the season on Saturday night in Atlanta. The 'Bockers took down their new rivals behind great defense and a collective effort from the youth! NYY-NYK Question of the Day: Outside of last postseason, when was the last time the Knicks and Hawks met in the playoffs, and who won...

The Knicks took down the Lakers on Tuesday night at the Garden. After an incredibly fast start for New York, the Lakers came storming back late in the first half and into the third quarter. The Knicks eventually pulled away though thanks to another brilliant effort by their bench. Los Angeles fell to under .500 at the time and the Knicks 10-8. NYY-NYK Question of the Day: True or False? In Tracy M...

The Knicks split this weekend against the Rockets and Bulls in two tight games yet for some reason it still feels like they were blown out in both. Things are certainly not awfully grim but they are concerning. We have lots to discuss in this one, mainly analyzing this stagnant Knick offense. NYY-NYK Question of the Day: Bill Bradley played his entire NBA career with the New York Knicks. In which...

The Knicks lost again at home. It's become a very concerning trend that this team doesn't play with that resiliency every night in front of their fans like they did last season. The chemistry seems to be the biggest problem here and in this show we discussed that and more.

I am back. Been a bit. Sorry. Don't know how often I'll be putting out episodes going forward but I will try my best to be consistent again to some degree. Tonight we discussed a little Knicks, went over their win against the Pacers, and broke some things down.

Continuing to discuss Knicks topics from four days ago on the pod here. This time we get more into RJ Barrett while also touching more on Mitchell Robinson, Obi Toppin, and also Kevin Knox. Dana White's Contender Series was also tonight. We analyze that a bit too.

The Yankees fecklessly dropped the weekend set against the Orioles in the Bronx. This was supposed to be a "gimme" series. It's borderline unacceptable to do anything but sweep this miserable excuse of a team, let alone dropping two of three. Yankee pitching was a mixed bag as was the offense, Aaron Boone got tossed and made some questionable decisions, and Gleyber Torres got lazy again. There wer...

The Knicks were a surprising team last season, winning 41 games and placing in the top-half of the Eastern Conference standings. Pretty soon they will be underway again. New York will begin their preseason in just over a month from now, and then the regular season starts late October. The offseason moves by the front office were solid, as were the moves in the draft. Was it enough to improve the K...

The Yankees' 13-game win streak snapped in Oakland last series and then they proceeded to lose the opening pair of games this series to drop four games in a row. The bats cooled off as they stopped stealing bases and started hitting into more double-plays, and the starting pitching was not the same. But to salvage the series Gerrit Cole stepped up by turning in a brilliant effort against the Angel...

The Yankees took the first two games of the set in Oakland to extend their impressive win streak to 13 games. But on the weekend things changed and they cooled off, dropping the last two as the bats went quiet and the defense was sloppy. Aaron Judge was the only offense on Saturday, Anthony Rizzo drove in the lone run to tie it late Sunday, but it was Chad Green who surrendered the big blow in the...

The Yankees are scorching hot. They have just won their 11th consecutive game, sweeping the Braves across two in Atlanta. The bats continue to show improvement as Giancarlo Stanton leads the way while the baserunning, defense, and pitching all continue to be rock solid as well. Aaron Boone is also making sound decisions late in the game that are paying off. Later, Dom Randazzo (@dom.randazzo, via...

The Yankees are rolling. With their ninth win in a row this afternoon they moved to 20 games above .500 for the first time all season, but more importantly they continue to hold control of the first wildcard spot. The Pinstripes also improved to 3,291-0 all-time against the Twins (or something like that). This series the bats looked as sharp as they've looked in a long while; Luke Voit in particul...

The Yankees swept the Red Sox this week to jump ahead of them in the standings. They now lead the wildcard while five games out from the first place Rays in the division. Things are looking very bright right now for Aaron Boone's squad. Guys are stepping up defensively, the approach at the plate is different, the starting pitching has been sturdy, they're getting healthy again, and more. We break...

The Yankees continue to win. By taking two against the White Sox this weekend that makes it six consecutive series victories for them. These wins did not come easy but they felt good. The bullpen is a huge issue, but the offense has looked better and the starting pitching has held it down during all of the injuries. We recap it, break it down, and discuss the team's play of late in our latest show...

Six total runs in the ninth gave fans a thrilling roller coaster ending to a magical night. Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton's clutch homers were erased once Zack Britton walked the No. 9 hitter and fed Tim Anderson a meatball for the walk-off. If you're a baseball fanatic, it was the perfect show for a night like this. But I'm a Yankees fanatic...

The Yankees continue to win series' as they most recently took two of three from Kansas City. They received yet another masterful performance from Jameson Taillon, DJ LeMahieu is going well at the dish lately as are a lot of other guys, Joey Gallo still isn't hitting, and more. We get to it all in the latest.

The Yankees took three of four from the Mariners and continue to win series' ever since the trade deadline. There were both positives and negatives. Luis Gil continues to impress; Gleyber is showing some life but also got injured; Rizzo went onto the COVID list; Gallo had a breakout game and more. We break it all down and also discuss some UFC as well.

The Knicks have turned a fairly quiet offseason into a relatively loud one in just a few days, signing Kemba Walker to follow up the Evan Fournier acquisition. They also extended Julius Randle the next morning. Leon Rose, Scott Perry, Brock Aller, and the rest of the front office deserve some high praise for this one. The Knicks are finally running things professionally again.

The Yankees picked up another series win this week at Yankee Stadium. They defeated the peasant Baltimore Orioles in two of three games, scoring over 10 runs in each of the final two contests. Anthony Rizzo continues to shine as does the starting pitching, capped off by another brilliant performance from July's AL Pitcher of the Month, Jameson Taillon.
