Stephon Marbury's Time As Knick Is Not Officially Over — For Now
Even though it was widely speculated that Stephon Marbury would no longer be in New York this season, new Knicks prez Donnie Walsh says that the noggin-tatted point guard will be working out with the team and all of this talk of a buyout is completely false. Walsh said that speculation was completel...
Starbury In Flight, Afternoon Delight ...
Stephon Marbury is in the best shape of his life, and is ready to help someone go out and dominate the Eastern Conference. So what do you do if you're the Knicks?

Deadspin HOF Nominee: Isiah Thomas
It's worth noting that no SHOTY winner has ever made the Deadspin Hall of Fame. Barbaro might be up for nomination again this year. Amazingly, this is Isiah's first ever nomination. So much to choose from, Isiah-wise, though I'll always be partial to "Isiah Thomas' Knicks Legacy, Summed Up In One P...
New York Knicks Owner James Dolan Advertises His Band With Google Banners
And why wouldn't he? When you're a rocker like JD and the Straight Shot (get it, get it!) you can't be expected to pour all your efforts into a perpetually losing team steeped in sexual harassment. No way, man. You got to feel the vibe. Ride the proverbial dragon, strum those strings. You're a rocke...

Here it is, in all of its brand-pate'n glory, with nary a photoshop magician in sight.

It's probably as subtle as you can get for a head...
Let's Start Guessing Where LeBron Will Play In Two Years
The summer of 2010. That's when LeBron James will shun Northeast Ohio, get a plane ticket, head to New York City, play basketball, and win a championship with either the Knicks, the Nets, or an amalgamation of the relocated Memphis Grizzlies and Los Angeles Clippers, the Long Island Clizzers....
The Knicks Already Have Danilo Gallinari Fever
Oh, boy, what a grand giggle we had last night when flipping through Chad Ford's mock draft.

But...
Isiah Thomas Pretty Much Got A Promotion
The disinterest Isiah Thomas showed in his last days as coach of the New York Knicks was palpable, and pretty much understood by all parties. But remember: He's not being fired by the Knicks. He's just taking a different job with the team so that $18 million still left on his contract can be collect...
Goodbye, Isiah. We Shall Never Meet Another Like You
The NBA Playoffs schedule is all set, and we'll certainly be overflowing with coverage and discussion and all you might expect from your sports blog, but we really need to start today off with a eulogy.

Counting Down Isiah's Final Hours
The New York Knicks' season ends tomorrow night, in Indiana, but the official/unofficial goodbye to Isiah Thomas was in the Garden last night, with the Knicks losing to the Celtics' second stringers.

The Best $187 Million Ever Spent
As Isiah Thomas and the Knicks attempt to finish up their disastrous season and wait to find out what new GM Donnie Walsh will do to rejuvenate the team, it'd probably be a good idea to make sure he doesn't read this Portfolio.com article on how much Isiah has cost the Knicks. The magazine estimates...
Dolan And Isiah Are BFF, Got It?

Could This Be The End For Our Isiah Hero?
Ladies and gentlehumans, the day of reckoning is almost upon us, and it's a sad concept to behold. Yes, it's beginning to look like it is, in fact, possible for Isiah Thomas to be fired as coach of the Knicks. We know: We also dreamed this could last forever. You don't know what you got ......
One Year Since Isiah Showed "Evident Progress"
It's a historic day, everyone, one whose importance almost slipped by us. Today, it has been one year since James Dolan saw "evident progress" from the New York Knicks and extended Isiah Thomas' contract. Boy, did that ever work out well....
Isiah Thomas Joins "Fire Isiah" Movement
The NBA Closer is written by Matt McHale, who thinks Isiah has been trying to get fired for years - I mean, would you want to coach the Knicks? Didn't think so.
