Tom Thibodeau passes Pat Riley for 4th-most wins in Knicks history The next rung on the ladder is Jeff Van Gundy, Thibodeau’s longtime friend, who sits in third place with 248 wins.

ATLANTA — Tom Thibodeau is no longer a figure in Pat Riley’s rearview. The Knicks’ head coach just passed him on the road.

Knicks barbecue Hawks, 121-105, for win No. 49 The No. 3 Knicks improved to 3.5 games ahead of the fourth-seeded Indiana Pacers, who face MVP candidate Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets on Sunday.

ATLANTA — State Farm Arena must have run out of chicken. The only menu item was barbecued hawk.

Delon Wright bracing for role change with Jalen Brunson returning to Knicks Wright called it “surreal” to start for the Knicks, especially after spending his first month in New York parked at the end of the bench.

With Jalen Brunson returning Delon Wright knows his role will change -- if it even still exists after today in Atlanta.

"I won't get my hopes up," he told @NYDailyNews "The team’s gonna look different and I’ll have to reinvent a certain role for myself."

Jericho Sims trade for Delon Wright doesn’t address Knicks’ biggest need And while Wright brings defensive tenacity, his addition doesn’t necessarily address New York’s most pressing issue: a lack of size on the wings beyond starters OG Anunoby and Mikal Bridges.

Delon Wright has been among the league leaders in deflections each year since leading the NBA in the category his sophomore season. He doesn’t address the Knicks’ biggest need, but he’s a player Thibs can trust on defense — and trust goes a long way www.nydailynews.com/2025/02/06/j...

I’ve been so bad at this app I’m sorry yall 💔

Kristian Winfield: NBA All-Star votes or win shares? Jalen Brunson is about the latter The NBA All-Star Game starters have always been decided by a fan-driven popularity contest.

LaMelo Ball is the king of highlights. Jalen Brunson is the king of New York.

One’s got the All-Star fan votes.

The other's got the #Knicks 14 games over .500.

My column for @NYDailyNews/@NYDNSports www.nydailynews.com/2025/01/02/n...

Knicks OK with stacking wins against losing teams: ‘These are NBA teams, the best of the best’ The Knicks can only play the teams on their schedule.

The Knicks have won 15 of their last 19 games. Many of those wins have come against teams with poor records.

“We had to execute against some teams people wanna say are [bad], but we’re in the best league. We’ve had some dogfights.”

Mikal Bridges erupts for 41 points, Knicks stave off Wemby, Spurs for 5th straight win All the Knicks wanted for Christmas was a five-game winning streak. At Madison Square Garden, Santa Claus wore No. 25.

The Knicks have an easy holiday schedule. They will need the cushion in the New Year For now, the Knicks are taking it one game at a time.

The Knicks have won 12 of their last 16 games. They have a chance to run off 7 more in a row entering the New Year.

But the schedule is brutal in January and beyond, underscoring why this holiday stretch is vital for a team with an eye on the standings.

This version of Knicks’ Mikal Bridges is worth 5 draft picks: ‘He’s a star in this league’ Mikal Bridges scored 29 points on an efficient 12-of-18 shooting from the field and 4-of-8 from beyond the arc, adding six rebounds and six assists in the Knicks’ 133-107 victory over the Wolves on…

This version of Mikal Bridges is the player you bet the farm on.

Bridges leads the #Knicks in scoring since the Dec. 1 Pelicans game.

It’s a moment the Knicks knew would come—so long as Bridges tuned out the outside noise:

“He’s a star in this league:”

2024 NBA Trade Moratorium: Why Dec. 15 is important, and what it means for the Knicks The NBA’s new collective bargaining agreement (CBA) has transformed trades into intricate puzzles.

The Knicks are stuck. Hard-capped with limited trade options and few draft assets, the NBA's new CBA is testing their title hopes.

Here’s why Dec. 15 could be the lifeline they need.

It's the day most free agent signings become trade-eligible. www.nydailynews.com/2024/12/13/k...

Hawks expose glaring Knicks weaknesses in disappointing NBA Cup Quarterfinal elimination If there’s a formula for derailing the Knicks’ high-powered offense, it’s becoming increasingly clear: disrupt the flow, push the physical limits, and dare the officials to call it tight.

A defense that needs fixing. An offense struggling with physicality. And a team racing the clock to build chemistry to compete for a title.

The Atlanta Hawks took advantage of all three to eliminate the Knicks from the NBA Cup.

Thank you! It can be tough to write on deadline so I can be so much more thorough when I have time to go through the tape

‘Whose man is this?’: Inside Knicks’ defensive woes in embarrassing first quarter vs. Pistons In their 120-111 loss, the Knicks’ first-quarter collapse was a microcosm of a larger issue.

Stayed up all night and rewatched every defensive possession from an embarrassing first quarter in the #Knicks' loss to the Pistons.

It was worse on film.

"We ain’t that good to just pick and choose when we want to play defense."

No, they're not. www.nydailynews.com/2024/12/08/w...

Jalen Brunson’s job description has changed, and it’s leading the Knicks to new heights Brunson’s role this time around is different from the one he played last season.

Jalen Brunson’s job description has changed—kind of. He’s always done what it takes to win. Last season, it was scoring. This time around? It’s orchestrating the NBA’s most potent offense. The #Knicks have had all 5 starters score 10+ PTS 14x this season.

Cameron Payne’s ‘ugly’ jump shot helps fuel league-best Knicks offense: ‘At the end of the day, it goes in’ It may not be pretty, but Payne’s shot is a thing of beauty where it counts most: on the scoreboard.

Cam Payne sees the jokes about his shooting form. But before you call it ugly, make sure to call it cash.

"You wanna talk about my shot? At the end of the day, it goes in. I work on, I guess, an ugly shot."

OG Anunoby is putting on a defensive clinic tonight against the Hornets. At halftime, he has 2 steals and tons of deflections and contested shots. He’s dominating the game despite only having scored 8 points. #Knicks lead, 65-62.

Knicks’ top-ranked offense faces real challenge in elite Orlando Magic defense: ‘This’ll be a good test for us’ The Knicks’ NBA Cup dreams hinge on Tuesday night’s showdown against the Orlando Magic, and while the Knicks are hot, winners in 8 of their last 11 games, the Magic are scorching.

It’s the league’s No. 1 offense vs Orlando’s top-ranked defense.

The Knicks and Magic tipoff soon with the winner advancing in the NBA Cup.

The Magic have won 12 of their last 13 games without All-Star Paolo Banchero.

“This will be a good test for us.”

Knicks erupt for 76 more first half points in Phoenix against the Suns. Jalen Brunson has 23 points and 7 assists, and it’s target practice for a Knicks team teeing off from downtown. What a showing.

That may have been the Knicks’ most beautiful defensive stand. Rotation after rotation forces a 30 foot Booker three. We are watching this team grow in real time.

So that’s back-to-back 40-point first quarters for the Knicks, who are finding their offensive stride right on time to begin a 5-game road trip with a 44-28 lead entering Q2.

The Suns are shorthanded (no KD, or Beal), but the Knicks are playing their best basketball.

Both can be true.

New app, same Knicks. Who’s up watching the game?
