The Brooklyn Nets are in the middle of playing the Boston Celtics in the 2022 NBA Playoffs. However, Spike Lee, the notoriously known New York Knicks fan was spotted at the Nets-Celtics game on Saturday night. He wasn’t just attending, but the famous film director was seen rooting for Brooklyn. Thanks to Michael Grady, there’s […]

The Brooklyn Nets are currently in a 0-2 hole in their first-round series against the Boston Celtics heading into a must-win Game 3 on Saturday. Between injuries and inconsistent play, this team hasn’t exactly lived up to expectations across the last couple of seasons since Steve Nash took over as head coach. That has raised […]

New York Knicks executive vice president William Wesley was spotted sitting courtside in Dallas during the Mavs-Jazz series earlier in the week. He was with Knicks star Julius Randle, who happens to be a Dallas native. Randle’s presence was not exactly newsworthy but the presence of Wesley was a bit ominous, to say the least. […]

The New York Knicks only spent five games in the 2021 NBA playoffs but left with a new enemy. Trae Young’s heroics for the Atlanta Hawks and lack of fear in Madison Square Garden sunk the great season that Julius Randle and RJ Barrett achieved with the Knicks. Although this season was not as glamourous […]

The magical 2020-21 season for Julius Randle and the New York Knicks feels like ages ago at this point. Randle was a deadly offensive threat last season, providing both scoring and playmaking from the frontcourt position. The Knicks forward parlayed that into an All-Star season and a spot on an All-NBA team. What truly opened […]

There is no denying that Jeremy Lin’s epic run with the New York Knicks during the Linsanity days was one of the most unforgettable series of games for a single player over the past decade or so. Lin took the basketball world by storm and apparently, he nearly also destroyed Los Angeles Lakers legend Kobe […]

It doesn’t look like the Big Apple’s hatred of Trae Young has diminished one bit. Young, who became the Joker to New York sports’ Batman after leading the Atlanta Hawks to a first-round win over the New York Knicks in the 2021 NBA Playoffs, is even getting the ire of New York Yankees fans — […]

When the superstars are away, the, um, not-so superstars will play. That has been the familiar case in the NBA when the regular season winds down, as teams choose to err on the side of caution and sit their top guns to avoid tempting fate. This season was no different. On Sunday, as many of […]

The New York Knicks’ 2021 – 2022 season is now over. A season filled with turmoil and disappointment is now in the books, as the team failed to capitalize on their surprise playoff run last year. Despite that, though, there are plenty of things to like from the young guns of the team this season. […]

The New York Knicks will wrap up their 2021-22 season with a home matchup against the Toronto Raptors. This is a season that New York fans hope to forget. Almost everything went wrong and the Knicks failed to make the playoffs despite somewhat lofty expectations. Knicks president of basketball operations Leon Rose gave a rare […]

The New York Knicks are set to conclude a disappointing 2021-22 season after making it to the playoffs last year. Currently holding a 36-45 record at the 11th spot of the Eastern Conference, a lot of changes will surely have to be made for Tom Thibodeau’s squad in the upcoming offseason. Looking back, the Knicks’ […]

Obi Toppin had a career night on Friday against the Washington Wizards, and the New York Knicks youngster knows the biggest reason why. The second-year forward exploded for 35 points in the contest to lead the Knicks to a 114-92 win. He also recorded four rebounds, one assist and two steals in a major confidence-booster […]

While the season is already over for the New York Knicks, fans were still hoping they can end the campaign on a good note. While they did see big games from Obi Toppin and Immanuel Quickley on Friday, it is not without bad news after RJ Barrett suffered an injury. Barrett picked up a sprained […]

The New York Knicks are heading back to the drawing board as their 2021-22 season winds down without a shot at making the playoffs. As they head into the offseason, they should look to add young pieces around RJ Barrett, who is emerging as a true star. Trading Julius Randle for younger players and draft […]

Kevin Durant has gotten used to life in The Big Apple. He has also perhaps gotten used to the unique feeling that most of the basketball fans where he lives still aren’t over the fact he snubbed their favorite team, the New York Knicks, for the much newer NYC basketball team, the Brooklyn Nets. And, […]

The Brooklyn Nets gave the New York Knicks some chances during Wednesday’s game, but RJ Barrett and co. couldn’t seize the win, despite building a big lead. Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving’s big second-half comeback sparked the key run to give the Nets the 110-98 win in the battle of the boroughs and a massive […]

Kevin Durant was once seen as the potential savior of the New York Knicks. The possibility of him joining them in free agency seemed real. Now, the Brooklyn Nets superstar is one of the team’s main enemies. Spurning them for their in-city rival and playing up the rivalry between the two teams makes him one […]

Nothing like a crosstown rivalry to fire up opposing teams. The New York Knicks hosted the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday and Madison Square Garden got rocking again. The Knicks set the tempo early on, taking a commanding 17-point lead after the first half. But the Nets hung tough, with Kevin Durant catching fire in the […]

Kyrie Irving isn’t one to take any slander sitting down. The Brooklyn Nets guard showed exactly that on Wednesday night during their Subway Series matchup against the New York Knicks. With the Nets down 67-50 at halftime, Kyrie Irving and Co. clearly weren’t in the best of spirits walking back to the locker room. That’s […]

Brooklyn Nets star Kevin Durant has been a thorn in the New York Knicks’ side for the past few seasons. He toyed with Knicks fans’ emotions when there was buzz about him going to New York. The fact that he did, but eventually ended up in Brooklyn made it sting a little extra as he […]

With the Los Angeles Lakers missing out on the playoffs, many are speculating what the franchise will do to get back to title contention. One team to keep an eye on is the New York Knicks, as they could make some big moves in the 2022 NBA offseason. They haven’t had the best point guard […]

The New York Knicks take on their crosstown rivals, the Brooklyn Nets, for an elite Eastern Conference battle on Wednesday night! It’s time to continue our NBA odds series with a Nets-Knicks prediction and pick.   The Nets are inching closer to the 7-seed in the East but will likely end the season as the […]

The Brooklyn Nets took care of business vs. the Houston Rockets on Tuesday. They now sit in 8th place and control their destiny. If Brooklyn win their next three games, they’ll lock up the 7th seed. That means your 2022 Nets would host a Play-In game, win and you’re in the playoffs, as a 7th […]

Every season in the NBA, there are a handful of teams that are a big surprise, enjoying unexpected success. Conversely, there are always some teams that are massive disappointments. It obviously goes without saying that the Los Angeles Lakers‘ season would fall into the latter. They are of course less than two years removed from […]

To say that the New York Knicks have been one of the most disappointing teams this season would be an understatement. After making a postseason appearance last year for the first time since 2013, Knicks fans were under the impression that things were finally beginning to look up for their beloved team. Now that they’re […]

On the most recent episode of ClutchPoints’ Nothing But Nets podcast, we got a very intriguing question from a listener. Martin from the Bensonhurst neighborhood of Brooklyn wanted to know this: “How relieved are Brooklyn Nets fans that the New York Knicks are blowing their draft position, conceding relevance to the Nets for the foreseeable future?” […]

The New York Knicks’ second-year guys showed up big time on Sunday against the Orlando Magic, as both Obi Toppin and Immanuel Quickley made history in the process. With the team missing Julius Randle, Toppin filled in as a starter once again and impressed. He finished with 20 points and eight rebounds in the 118-88 […]

The New York Knicks aren’t playing for anything as their season winds down. After being mathematically eliminated from the playoffs, the most useful thing is to let the young players shine. Immanuel Quickley took advantage of the opportunity and accomplished a rare feat. Quickley lit up the Orlando Magic, recording 20 points, 10 rebounds and […]

The New York Knicks are finishing up a lackluster season, with a current record of 34-43. Sitting at 12th in the Eastern Conference, the Knicks are officially out of playoff contention. Now, many are questioning head coach Tom Thibodeau’s choices when it comes to the Knicks’ starting five, specifically his decisions at point guard. Alec […]

It’s been a downright disappointing season for the New York Knicks after such a promising 2020-21. Currently in 12th place, they’re already out of contention for the play-in, which means it makes zero sense to keep playing their starters if not at 100% health. That being said, head coach Tom Thibodeau has ruled out Julius […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers will pay a visit to Madison Square Garden to take on the New York Knicks in a 1 PM ET Saturday. With that said, it’s a good time to check out our NBA odds series, which includes our Cavaliers-Knicks prediction, odds, and pick we have laid out below. Cleveland is coming off a […]

Just when they thought they were in, he pulled them back out. Julius Randle played this trick on fans of the New York Knicks this season. He shined last season and led the Knicks to their first playoff berth. For an encore, he performed much worse, profanely told the fans to shut up and put up […]

The New York Knicks doubling down on their 2020-21 core has backfired horribly. They nabbed Kemba Walker and Evan Fournier in free agency and brought back their key bench pieces in the hopes that it would work out. Now, Walker is away from the team and those three reserves they brought back have been disappointing. […]

Julius Randle has been all out of sorts this season. So have the New York Knicks. Both parties have failed to live up to the lofty expectations they set last season. They both share the blame for it. Rumors surfaced about Randle requesting a trade from the Knicks and displaying bad body language to show […]

The rumor mill has been running rampant lately with the possibility that the Los Angeles Lakers might look to trade superstar Anthony Davis away this offseason. A large part of it has been the massive disappointment that is the Lakers’ season. Also, Los Angeles must be realizing that if this duo is not working to […]

The NBA regular season continues with games on Wednesday. The Charlotte Hornets will hit the road and take on the New York Knicks. It’s time to continue our NBA odds series and make a Hornets-Knicks prediction and pick. These two teams have had somewhat similar seasons so far. The Charlotte Hornets have been somewhat streaky […]

The New York Knicks are in the middle of a four-game winning streak after upsetting the Chicago Bulls, 109-104 on Monday. But it seems Julius Randle still isn’t too happy. The All-Star forward, who’s playing through a quad injury, was limited to only five points, missing eight of his nine attempts. He did have 13 […]

The Brooklyn Nets absolutely smacked the Miami Heat on Saturday night. The vaunted #HeatCulture everyone always talks about seems to be cooling off a bit. The top seed in the East (now in a tie with the Philadelphia 76ers, but percentage points behind) has lost six of their last eight games. Kevin Durant and Kyrie […]

Amid what has been a forgettable season for Russell Westbrook in Hollywood, rumors have already been circling about a potential exit from the Los Angeles Lakers this coming offseason. In the weeks leading up to the February trade deadline, Russ was actually already linked to several teams in a handful of trade scenarios. One such […]
