Later today, the Knicks will take on the Pistons in their annual Martin Luther King day game. Since the first one in 1986, there have been a handful of memories both good and bad.
The most significant one is the 1990 game which led to a rule known as the Trent Tucker rule. That was when [...]
So my friend BB from Brooklyn sent me this little ditty from deadspin because he knows how irritated The Celt’s, er, Sports Guy’s take on Ewing makes me. In a nutshell, Celt’s Guy himself was always was REALLY PISSED that Ewing was mentioned in the same breath (OH THE HORROR) as Bill Russell when he [...]
Just so we are all clear here, what we are trying to express here, in addition to giving you some inside information and knowledge, is that the ship is going in the right direction and that, as fans, patience is a wonderful thing.
Agreeing or disagreeing, as my dad would say, “is what makes a horse [...]
Patrick Ewing has been lobbying for the head coaching job with the Wizards, but ESPN is reporting that Washington is already in discussions with former Timberwolves and Pistons’ coach Flip Saunders.
“…Flip Saunders appears to be at the top of the Washington Wizards‘ coaching wish list, according to league sources.
While no deal has been struck, one [...]
Clyde Frazier never received an explanation from the organization as he was unceremoniously dealt to Cleveland back in 1977 and we all know that Patrick Ewing’s battle with the front office, namely Dave Checketts, was the reason he was dealt.
Although jaded, the ever-classy Frazier ended up coming home to be an announcer and has become [...]
“I’m not trying to needle anybody or tell them their business,” Van Gundy said after Orlando beat the Knicks 106-102. “What’s amazing is they honor the guy, I don’t know, every year. They honor him, but while they’ve got a lot of ex-players in their organization, they’ve never made any move to try to hire [...]
Despite not having much chance to make the playoffs, there are still some storylines surrounding the Knicks.
Speaking personally, I’m agitated that Patrick Ewing is an assistant on another team. I’m tired of honoring the guy when he’s a member of another organization. He should be every bit what Don Mattingly was to that generation of [...]
The Knicks think the world of Herb Williams, but when you look at Patrick Ewing’s overall resume the Knicks should actively pursue bringing him back to his house.
Forget the fact that Ewing is the greatest Knick of all-time (statistically speaking), the work that he has done with Yao and Dwight Howard has been outstanding. Now, [...]
Here is my first column on the NBA for SNY.tv, any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
“…Apologies to Hasheem Thabeet, who I don’t believe will have an impact on the NBA — if at all — for several years, but there is a simple reason why the art of shot blocking has become almost extinct. Look [...]
Obviously, Patrick is one of my favorite players, but who knows more about getting dunked on than Ewing? Great spot by Snickers, who are always well-equipped with comedy.
Finger point to Gym Rat Mike K., who’s getting it done late at SUNY Albany.
