Knicks great Patrick Ewing said Wednesday he had paid his dues as an assistant and was ready to step up to a head coaching role -- and would certainly be interested in a return home to New York.

Ryan Anderson still gets overlooked in opponent gameplans. No matter how many 20-plus point, 3-point barrages he puts up, teams invariably leave him open and Anderson invariably finds a way to get himself involved on the offensive end.
He may very well win the NBA's Most Improved Player Award. As a young player given the chance to shine, he fits the archetype of players who...

Howard's lackluster effort suppresses potential
NEW YORK Never one to mince words, Orlando Magic coach Stan Van Gundy was both livid and candid after his teams 108-86 loss to the New York Knicks on Wednesday night. And rather than attribute the blowout to one thing, he chose to blame it on everything.
We were awful, a brusque Van Gundy said. You could go to everything, we were terrible. We turned it over too much, we didnt...

For those who know me, know I am a huge Star Wars fan. It doesn't take much to get me started on the saga and that's why I totally was into the casting job Orlando Magic's Ryan Anderson did to his teammates recently.
It all started when Glen Davis said the Magic need "Jedi force" for the rest of the season and Anderson just ran with it.
"Stan (Van Gundy...

The Orlando Magic knew what they were getting in Glen “Big Baby” Davis when they acquired him in a trade with Boston for Brandon Bass, but they probably didn’t anticipate the season-long antics along with him.
The shenanigans continued earlier this week and made its way all the way up to the league office this time.
