Give me one good reason why Tim Hardaway Jr. shouldn’t be rookie of the year. The reason cannot deal with his lack of rebounding ability, his garbage-time heroics, his absence of playmaking responsibility, or his lack of minutes. It’s okay, I can wait. I thought so. MCW, after his hot start, has been pretty iffy…

Jeremy Tyler Career High 17 Points Full Highlights (1/28/2014)
Can you believe the Knicks gave a roster spot to Chris Smith instead of this guy? I know Jeremy was injured, blah blah blah, nepotism, whatever. But come on. Jeremy Tyler, in this single NBA game, has shown more than Chris Smith has or ever will show in the D-League. JR Smith’s negative presence on…
Read MoreTim Hardaway Jr. 18 Points/4 Threes Full Highlights (1/26/2014)
Tim Hardaway Jr. has stood out from his draft class by not being total, unadulterated human waste. His ability to positively contribute to his team is a rare and unique attribute among his fellow rookies. Not only can he shoot the three, but his above-average athleticism allows him some highlight-worthy dunks. He can also dribble…
Read MoreAndrea Bargnani 19 Points Full Highlights (1/9/2014)
There are some people who are under the impression that Andrea Bargnani is to blame for the Knicks’ horrible season. Those people are wrong. While Bargnani has not been great and his acquisition was questionable, he is performing about as well as expected. His career-high rebound rate is evidence of this. Here are some aspects…
Read MoreIman Shumpert Career High 27 Points/1 Game Winner Full Highlights (1/2/2014)
Iman Shumpert? More like Iman Dumpert. Because all he has done this year is take a huge dump on the hopes of Knicks fans. He’s been in a shooting slump that’s lasted the whole year up until tonight, and his vaunted defensive acumen has been victimized by his lack of effort. Is he the reason…
Read MoreAmar’e Stoudemire 22 Points Full Highlights (12/25/2013)
Christmas again. The bespectacled, unshaven man looked out of from his Manhattan apartment. Down on the street he could see all the accoutrements of the season; holly, fake icicles made of lights, and wreaths, among other gaudery. Signs on the business below proclaimed their hope that you would have a great Christmas. Amar’e sighed, and…
Read MoreBeno Udrih 21 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (12/18/2013)
Beno “Bueno” Udrih is the proud owner of the lamest haircut in the NBA. “Lack of haircut” would actually be a better term. Bueno, you know I respect your PG skills, and I still think you’re a viable starter on a team that doesn’t need scoring out of the point guard position, but I was…
Read MoreAndrea Bargnani 23 Points Full Highlights (12/14/2013)
Bargnani sat down heavily at his desk. He was exhausted, not by the physical exertion of practice, but by the prose aching to be released from his body. Pulling to him a feather pen and a piece of stationery, he wrote: “As stars shine in the night above It is only you I think of,…
Read MoreAmar’e Stoudemire 15 Points/2 Blocks Full Highlights (12/10/2013)
Look at how old Amare Stoudemire looks. DAMN. Those goggles add like 5 years at least by themselves. Now watch him play. Try not to cry. I’ll go get the tissues. Done yet? Good. Because I’ve got some more sadness ready to heap onto your already battered psyche: you will never, EVER, get to see…
Read MoreAndrea Bargnani 16 Points/3 Blocks/2 Techs/1 Ejection Full Highlights
If you told me during the offseason that the Knicks were gonna suck really bad, I could have given a very good guess as to why. Andrea Bargnani. But I would have been wrong. He’s actually playing pretty decently, especially considering the hebetude of everyone around him. Making shots on one end and blocking them…
