The Knicks defeated the Nets at Nassau Coliseum in their preseason finale Wednesday night by a score of 97-95. As New York sealed the deal with a victory, it should have come to nobody's surprise who helped lead the way.Pablo Prigioni and Chris Copeland have emerged as two worthy rotation players over the last couple of weeks, and nothing changed Wednesday night. At 35 years old, Prigioni may not be the quickest point guard in the world, but the guy simply has court vision that you just can't teach.Whether it be their collective experience playing overseas or not, Prigioni and Copeland just seem to have a complete understanding of one another on the court. They've been excelling alongside each other all preseason long, and last night, they led the charge as the Knicks beat Brooklyn.An array of Prigioni's 11 assists went Copeland's way as the pair paced the Knicks through the fourth quarter and overtime. The Argentinian is also someone who likes to chase loose bal...

Pablo Prigioni may be the next star of the New York Knicks, if he continues to play the way he has this preseason. He had a terrific game last night against the Brooklyn Nets dishing out 11 assists. What was more terrific was his post-game interview with MSG’s Tina Cervasio. Now we all understand that Pablo...

Should Amare Stoudemire Be On The Second Unit?

October 24, 2012
The New York Knicks need Stoudemire to be healthy for them to be a serious contender this year, but where is the best place for him in the lineup? Not to only get the best out of him as a player, but also to help the Knicks other key pieces.
I love statistics and numbers don’t lie, they don’t capture everything but they definitely paint a picture based on facts. I was...

Knicks: Carmelo Anthony Assumes Power Forward Position
With Stoudemire out, Carmelo Anthony now likely assumes the power forward position against the Brooklyn Nets, and beyond. Stoudemire will be nursing the rupture of a cyst in his left knee reportedly for the next 2-3 weeks.
It is the same knee that sidelined Stoudemire for majority of the 2005-06 season with Phoenix.
Anthony who commented simply, “. . .I played it last year”....
Tyson Chandler Doesn’t Believe Carmelo Will Shoot the Ball Less
For New York Knicks star forward Carmelo Anthony, he has always been known as one of the top scorers in the league. He’s one of those guys who can get you 30-plus points per game if you really need it from him.
However, with the Knicks having one of the deepest teams in the league now, the 28-year-old said recently that he doesn’t plan on scoring as much, as he wants to try...

October 26, 2012
Earlier this offseason, Carmelo Anthony made a vow that he was tired of scoring 30 or 40 points on a nightly basis, and now had more of a focus on doing whatever it took to win games. If that took defending and rebounding, and only taking 12 shots, he would do it.
This is admirable for anyone who knows Melo’s game. He shoots a lot, but a lot of the time, he is very good at it...

Of course you heard, the Knicks received good news yesterday. Tyson is day to day with a bruised knee. We can’t explain the importance to health for the 12/13 NY Knicks and it all starts with Tyson. Our minds have been pre-occupied with Amare, Camby, Brewer, Sheed, and Shump. Basically the whole team at some point was injured or held out of practice and games for some reason...

As I watch Wally give his insightful opinion (preseason)on the knicks players and inside knowledge of a player that has recentlyretired from the NBA game, he brings fresh air to the MSG telecast.
He's the best commentator up there now IMHO .

Felton prepared to battle Brooklyn Nets
Well if Doc Rivers is teaching the Boston Celtics to hate the Miami Heat, it seems that Mike Woodson may be getting a message through to the Knicks to hate the Brooklyn Nets.
During an appearance on Anthony Donahue’s The Knicks Blog internet radio show, Felton was asked about the Knicks-Nets season opener on Nov. 1.
After hearing about the comments made by Nets owner Mikhail...
Tyson Chandler leaves tonight’s game vs. Nets with a knee injury.
The New York Knicks had a little bit of a scare tonight as their best defensive player, Tyson Chandler was forced to leave Wednesday’s game against the Brooklyn Nets with an apparent knee injury.
The injury to Chandler occurred when he and Nets forward Gerald Wallace had collided with each other. Right after the collision, Chandler dropped to the ground immediately and began...

Ten years ago, can you believe it? The ’02-’03 season ended with Syracuse cutting down the nets in New Orleans, site of so much horror for the program before that. The kid that erased all those ghosts was back in the Dome this week.

The Knicks are facing the Nets at Nassau Coliseum tonight in their 6th and final pre-season game. The Knicks have not played well as of late and I am hoping to see the them develop some real chemistry tonight, even though many of the rotation guys are out.
We all know this is just the pre-season, but the Knicks have looked truly lackadaisical defensively and out of sync offensively...
