Magic/Bird : Not Your Average Broadway Show
Magic/Bird is the newest show to enter the Broadway spotlight, with previews continuing though the first part of April. Larry Bird, of the Boston Celtics, and Earvin “Magic” Johnson, of the LA Lakers, were the biggest of rivals, forging the best of friendships in the end. Having the opportunity to…
Knicks Go 6-1 Through Woodson’s First 7 Games as Coach
With sizable wins against Portland, Indiana twice, Toronto and Detroit the Knicks look to be playing a different brand of basketball with Mike Woodson heading the ship. Mike Woodson has seemed to been able to get a grasp of the team and veer them in the right direction. Despite a…
Few good words can describe Nets season
Disappointing. Frustrating. Maddening. There’s a crossword puzzle-worth of clues and adjectives that can describe the New Jersey Nets’ season and effort. Whichever one of those words you choose, or if you can think of your very own (without being too vulgar, of course), it’s probably an understatement when compared with how…
Women’s History Month: Cappie Pondexter (WNBA – New York Liberty)
Double G Sports continues it’s celebration of women in sports with someone that has plenty of local recognition. Not only did Cappie Pondexter play her college ball at Rutgers University but she now plays in the WNBA for the New York Liberty. Cappie has been one of the best guards…
Analyzing Each Member Of the Knicks Rotation: The Bench
The Knicks unlike most teams play 10 men on a regular basis and possibly 11 when they have their full compliment of players. This is an advantage as the season progresses to have this depth. However it is also a burden as it will be harder to find lineups where…
Analyzing Each Member Of the Knicks Rotation: The Starters
Now that the Knicks have the deepest rotation in the league and look to play 10 men on a consistent basis it is only natural to analyze what we should expect from each of these players. Today I will analyze the starters and then in the second part of this…
Stop the Linsanity; Deron Williams is tops in this town
With the spotlight focusing on Madison Square Garden for most of this abbreviated basketball season, it became clear last night who is the best point guard in the area, and maybe the entire NBA. No, it’s not Jeremy Lin. It’s not Baron Davis either. Iman Shumpert? Come on. In these…
Knicks Drop One to the Nets 100-92
To say this weekend has been a roller coaster ride for the Knicks is an understatement. After an atrocious let down loss at home 85-89 to the very bad but hotter as of late New Orleans Hornets squad, the Knicks were able to bounce back with what looked like a…
With Brook Lopez in lineup, Nets can get back to business
This past weekend was by far one, if not the single-most exciting two-game stretch of the Nets’ season. When the year is all said and done, we’ll look back at Feb. 18 and 19 as the highlight of the year. Not only did Jersey get its signature win thus far…
Anthony becomes a problem Knicks don’t need
Not only has Carmelo Anthony been an afterthought with the fans and the media, but he is an afterthought with his own team. No one knows when Anthony is playing. The fans are not thinking about him in light of what’s going on with Jeremy Lin and the Knicks don’t…
Nets continue to dance to the same old song
It’s well known that I’m a Knicks fan and I’m beyond stoked that the Jeremy Lin movement has started, but I can’t help sometimes but have selfish feelings. I wish this was happening across the river for the Nets. Covering the Nets beat is difficult. Not only is good news…
My Take On The “Linsanity” Craze and The Comparison to Tim Tebow
If you’re like me then you’re tired of hearing comments being made about Jeremy Lin because of race (Jason Whitlock and Floyd Mayweather). And you’re also tired of hearing the comparisons between Tebowmania and Linsanity. First of all I’m appalled at some of the negative racial comments against Jeremy Lin…
