Knicks Defense

Patrick Ewing, Jr is a Knick.
Frederick Weis, the worst draft pick in this generation of Knicks basketball that I am aware of, is finally gone.
Today is a good day.
Thanks to Paulnoize for breaking it here on Knicksdefense in the last post.
I have not seen very much of Ew2’s game, but for those of you that [...]

The gold medal game against Spain was indeed some beautiful basketball to witness.
Looks like Pau’s brother Marc Gasol is going to be factor in the NBA when he laces them up for Memphis this season. They have different games, Marc seems more of a bruiser in contrast to Pau’s finesse. The Fernandez kid [...]

Apparently MSG announcer Gus Johnson’s contract expired along with Isiah Thomas’ tenure as coach and president of the New York Knicks as the 2007-2008 season came to its lackluster, depressing end.
MSG and Mr. Johnson are now in discussions for a new contract. I wonder if emperor Dolan will make another mistake and let Johnson [...]

All right, they might not be saying the right things off the court, but TEAM USA is kicking ass this Olympics, and it is nice to see the U.S. back at the top of the rankings where they belong.
Obviously Donnie Walsh is pulling some punches this offseason, not giving up Zbo in any type of [...]

Believe it or not, some Knicks fans think New York should keep Stephon Marbury and make him play out the final year of his contract.

Many have concluded that the arrival [...]

The reports out of Beijing recently have on separate occasions quoted LeBron James and Kobe Bryant as saying they’d leave the NBA to play in Europe for the right price, somewhere in the vicinity of $50 million a year.
Now before you tell me “who wouldn’t,” think about how much C.R.E.A.M. these two heavily sponsored players [...]

H20/AH7/Allan Houston is making another comeback and this time he’s getting a head start on preseason training and announcing said comeback.
I would not be surprised if Jim Dolan again mandates a training camp try-out for AH7 (Jeffries is still a New York Knick at this moment so H20 is no go). The way Isiah [...]

It has been one full year of having the pleasure of blogging with some of the sharpest basketball minds in cyberspace.  Thank you for reading and contributing to Knicks Defense.  It has been a blast.  I look forward to next season, which will hopefully–not definitely–bring improvement to our troubled Knicks.
In just one year, through a [...]

Just reading the reactions on some of the other blogs to the Renaldo trade.
Were we watching the same Renaldo?
Yes, Renaldo was the best shot-blocker on the team. That’s not saying much when you have Eddy Curry and Zach Randolph up front along with Quentin Richardson. Chandler could have duplicated, if not improved [...]
