I'm back with episode 513 of the State of the New York Knicks podcast, and I recorded this one with fellow Knicks fans as we break down a huge Knicks win over the Celtics. Josh Hart flipped the game on its head, dropping 15 of his 26 points in the fourth quarter after a brutal first half where he had just 3 points, no rebounds, and a -9, while the defense told the real story all night. Jayson Tatum couldn't get going against Jalen Brunson, going 0/5 when matched up, and also struggled against Mitchell Robinson and KAT, while Hart locked down Derrick White in limited matchup time before hitting two clutch threes in the final 42 seconds to seal it. We also talk about how this win adds to what's becoming a stronger season under Mike Brown compared to last year's 51–31 finish under Tom Thibodeau.

In Episode 521 of State of the New York Knicks, I break down how I saw the Knicks smoke the Hawks, and I recorded this one with fellow Knicks fans and Knick fans as we talked through another strong performance. From my perspective, this game highlighted how far this team has come, with Mike Brown officially tying Pat Riley for the most wins in a first season as Knicks head coach with 51, and the team continuing to stack wins in big spots. Jalen Brunson took over when it mattered most, finishing with 30 points and 13 assists, including 17 in the fourth quarter and responding immediately after the Hawks took the lead, while OG Anunoby kept showing his value, now 23-4 when scoring 20+ with 22 points, 2 blocks, and a team-high +10, and with 65 games played he's clearly on track for All-Defensive Team honors. What also stood out to me is how this team is performing across the board with 27 wins against teams over .500, trailing only a few top teams, and holding a 24-6 record against .500 or below teams and 26-22 against above .500 teams, and I get into all of this and more in the episode, so Knicks fans click on the links below and tap in.Click the links below for:

In Episode 520 of State of the New York Knicks, I break down how I saw the Knicks completely smoke the Bulls, and I recorded this one with fellow Knicks fans and Knick fans while we also tapped into some 90s hoops talk. From my perspective, this game was over almost immediately with the Knicks jumping out to a 20-1 start and playing straight lockdown perimeter defense all night, going into halftime up 74-34 and never looking back, and honestly the Bulls roster just didn't have any answers. What stood out to me was Mitchell Robinson dominating with elite efficiency, now holding the 7th most double-doubles in NBA history while shooting 100% from the field, and in this game alone he had 15 points and 10 rebounds by halftime, the most combined points and rebounds he's ever had in a half, while OG Anunoby continued his impact, improving to 22-4 when scoring 20+ by dropping 31 points, 8 rebounds, and putting up a +32 performance, and I get into all of this and more in the episode, so Knicks fans click on the links below and tap in.Click the links below for:

In Episode 519 of State of the New York Knicks, I break down how I saw the Knicks take control against the Grizzlies, and I recorded this one with fellow Knicks fans and Knick fans as we reacted to a game where effort and dominance showed up. From my perspective, the Knicks completely flipped the script by forcing Clayton Jr, Bal, Mashack, and Burton into a combined -70, and it felt like we controlled every inch of the game, especially on the glass where we grabbed 20 offensive rebounds compared to just 6 from Memphis. What really stood out to me was holding the Grizzlies to just 20 total rebounds, the fewest by any team this season and the lowest ever against the Knicks, which matched our own offensive rebound total and shows just how physical and locked in we were, and I get into all of this and more in the episode, so Knicks fans click on the links below and tap in.Click the links below for:

In Episode 518 of State of the New York Knicks, I break down the Knicks vs Rockets game and I recorded this with fellow Knicks fans as we talked through another frustrating loss. During this three-game losing streak, I'm seeing a team with a 126.8 defensive rating, which is unacceptable, and only 35.3 rebounds per game, and knowing the starting five was already at -0.2 before this game, I know it's only getting worse. What really stood out to me was the offense, with the Villanova trio of Josh Hart, Jalen Brunson, and Mikal Bridges taking 16 total shots while KAT only had 4 shots at halftime, and I'm saying it straight up, we are not winning like this and I've had enough of the Villanova basketball. OG Anunoby gave us nothing with 1-6 at halftime and finishing 3/9 with zero assists, no real impact, while Deuce McBride struggled badly shooting 1/9, and even though I give him a pass, it was still rough to watch, so Knicks fans click on the links below and tap in for the full episode.Click the links below for:

In Episode 517 of State of the New York Knicks, I break down the Knicks vs OKC game and how I saw it unfold, and I recorded this with fellow Knicks fans to really talk through it. I don't know what game Mike Brown was playing because it looked like the same plan from the Hornets game, especially having Josh Hart guard SGA the way he did LaMelo, and SGA went 4/6 in just 4:28 of matchup time against him. To me, we lost this game because OKC controlled everything that mattered, forcing us into 18 turnovers, beating us 15 to 4 in fast break points, outscoring us in the paint 44 to 30, and racking up 10 steals, and I go deeper into all of it in the episode, so Knicks fans click on the links below and tap in.Click the links below for:

In Episode 515 of the State of the New York Knicks Podcast, I'm talking with Knicks fans after a frustrating loss to the Hornets, and we've got to have an honest conversation about what went wrong—starting with the defensive issues that keep showing up. I get into why Josh Hart continues to start despite being targeted heavily again, as LaMelo Ball went 5/6 with 3 threes in just 3:39 of matchup time against him, while Kon Knueppel also took advantage shooting 4/5 in just over 4 minutes. Off the bench, White added fuel to the fire with 17 points, cooking Hart efficiently and even scoring on OG Anunoby in limited matchups. As a team, the Knicks let Charlotte shoot 52.6% from the field, knock down 16 threes at a 39% clip, and got crushed on the glass by 19—effort, defense, and adjustments are all on the table in this episode, so tap in and make sure to click the links below for more Knicks content and updates.Click the links below for:

We get into the bigger picture too, highlighting the Knicks' incredible 23-7 run over their last 30 games, leading the NBA with a 105.3 defensive rating and a +12.9 net rating, showing just how dominant this team has been on both ends of the floor. I also show love to Jordan Clarkson for his efficient impact off the bench against New Orleans, and we can't ignore Mohamed Diawara's strong +15 presence alongside OG Anunoby, who led the charge with 21 points, 5 threes, and elite defense—this team is rolling, so tap in with us and make sure to click the links below for more Knicks content and updates.Click the links below for:

On this episode of the State of the New York Knicks Podcast, I'm talking with Knicks fans about a frustrating loss for the New York Knicks against the Oklahoma City Thunder, where some real concerns showed up, starting with the lack of impact from the wings as OG Anunoby and Mikal Bridges combined for 0 assists and just 6 rebounds despite both playing heavy minutes, which simply isn't enough, especially against a team with length and versatility, and it showed defensively too as Chet Holmgren took advantage of matchups, going 9/12 from the field when guarded by OG and Karl-Anthony Towns, while offensively, even though Jalen Brunson finished with 15 assists, the ball distribution raised questions with much of that production flowing to familiar connections and not enough involving Towns, who finished with just 8 shot attempts, and that's not going to get it done against elite competition, so I break all of that down, what it means moving forward, and where the Knicks need to clean things up, tap in, join the conversation, and click on the links below to listen to the full episode and stay connected.Click the links below for:
