Just a sampling of some Knicks players did tonight against the Hawks: Mitchell Robinson – career high 22 points RJ Barrett – career high 27 points Kevin Knox – season high 17 points Frank Ntilikina – career high 3 points Bobby Portis – career high 2 faces punched And that’s just a sampling. I would…

RJ Barrett 27 Points Full Highlights (12/17/2019)
I would like to earnestly apologize for foolishly and presumptively rendering and uploading this video before the game was even over, figuring that RJ Barrett wouldn’t score any more points. Alas, he hit two free throws (that were ruined by excessive Vince Carter worship, but I digress) with 45 seconds left. The video showing him…
Read MoreMarcus Morris 22 Points Full Highlights (12/15/2019)
I was getting my body ready for the ludicrous possibility of the Knicks winning three games in a row, and then they had to go and totally implode in the last few minutes of this one against the Nuggets. There was a stretch for nearly 6 minutes near the end of the game where they…
Read MoreMitchell Robinson 14 Points Full Highlights (12/13/2019)
Despite not having a point guard for the majority of the season, Mitchell Robinson is 6th in the league in dunks, with 61. All the dudes around him have a point guard who can feed them the ball and get them easy shots at the rim. Except for Robinson. I wish I could say that…
Read MoreElfrid Payton 16 Points Full Highlights (12/13/2019)
Elfrid Payton has many flaws as a basketball player, but he has one attribute that makes him very attractive to Knicks fans right now: point-guardiness. The Knicks have been without a real, actual, run-the-offense point guard for… since whenever Payton got injured in the first place. And it has showed. Their offense has been chaotic,…
Read MoreR.J. Barrett 22 Points Full Highlights (12/11/2019)
The five games before this one were not pretty for R.J. Barrett: 16 points, 4-of-13 shooting 2 points, 0-of-9 shooting 9 points, 4-of-10 shooting 12 points, 4-of-11 shooting 5 points, 1-of-9 shooting Okay, so some of those aren’t so bad (taking 13 shots to score 16 points and drawing hella fouls Harden-style is a good…
Read MoreMarcus Morris 36 Points Full Highlights (12/11/2019)
All it took for the Knicks to actually win a game for once was to get a 20-point lead, squander it, and squeeze out the win in overtime. I want to make a joke about tanking here, and how they revved up their tank way too late to get a loss, but even horrible teams…
Read MoreMarcus Morris 25 Points Full Highlights (12/7/2019)
The tradition for teams who have just fired their coach is to play REALLY hard and win the next game. This happens all the time, even though teams that fire their coach midseason are almost invariably doing very poorly and are hardly able to win any game no matter how hard they play. The Knicks,…
Read MoreMitchell Robinson 17 Points Full Highlights (12/5/2019)
Good news for the Knicks in this game: Mitchell Robinson outscored “MVP Candidate” Nikola Jokic 17 to 6. It sounds weird, but this was probably an expected outcome for that matchup. Jokic has been relatively meek when it comes to trying to make shots this year, and Robinson is the kind of center (the athletic…
Read MoreDennis Smith Jr. 17 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (12/1/2019)
Dennis Smith Jr. wasn’t on my exclusion list (the list of players too good for my channel) to start last year, but a handful of good performances right at the beginning of the season quickly put him there. I figured, as any sane person would, that he was quickly improving on an already pretty-good rookie…
