The Ebbs And Flows Of Knicks Fandom
By Johnathan Tillman / @thetillshow
(I began this immediately after Game 6.)
I am a 49ers fan. I watched that team lose painfully in consecutive years, within reach of the Lombardi Trophy. I saw them lose and did not watch a sports broadcast for days. I say all that to say this: I have never felt like...

Book Review: ‘Earl the Pearl: My Story’
For so many players in the past 30-plus years, he was the father to their styles. He brought the improvised creativity from the South Philadelphia playgrounds to the rigidity of the college and pro game. He was part of the “Rolls Royce backcourt” that was known for its flair on the hardwood and...

The Liberation Of Earl Smith III
J.R. Smith, the newly crowned Sixth Man of the Year, is on the postseason scene for all to see. There are people who have thrown shade his way, people who have come for my head for my disgust with the Eastern Conference coaches for leaving him off of the All-Star roster, and people who had once labeled...

Stephen Curry Visits New York City, Decides To Check Out Studio 54
I’ve always had an appreciation for Stephen Curry. Ever since his days as a Davidson Wildcat, where he acted the part of David and took out his mighty 3-point slingshot to slay college basketball’s giants, I made it a point to make sure to keep tabs on what’s going on with the fair-skinned...

Credit Mike Woodson For The Resurgence of Amar’e Stoudemire
A year ago, the New York Knicks were the most confusing team in the NBA. Sure, if you haven’t heard by now, Linsanity began in earnest a year ago this past Monday against the former New Jersey Nets.

The Knicks, The Celtics And Why Bad Blood Could Heal All
Monday night, while Notre Dame was getting its teeth kicked in by Alabama, there was a basketball game taking place in Madison Square Garden. A game which was important off the strength that it pitted two hopeful NBA Finals contenders against one another. Yet, leave it to Kevin Garnett – the...

East Coast vs. West Coast Beef, NBA Edition
A few weeks ago, I began tweeting about the dynamic in Los Angeles with the Lakers struggling and the Clippers playing the best basketball that franchise has ever seen. I opined that the dichotomy of the Lakers and Clippers has switched on the court, but it wouldn’t necessarily switch in terms of...
