if the Justice Department and federal judges are willing to set the bar for “providing material support to terrorists” this low—an encrypted group chat, auto-deleting messages, wearing black, possessing zines—what the Praireland defendants have been through will likely be just the beginning

Too deep in this bench, man. Putting Brunson out there with Dadiet and Hukporti is like trying to drive a Ferrari with screaming kids in the backseat.

Please he Jordan Clarkson out of the game.

The only thing that stops OG Anunoby from tapping his full potential is to get the audacity to yoke it on guys jus like that. His shitty around the basket finishing is because he finessed. Dunk or two foul shots every time. The risk is injury because he’s fragile.

This is a very weird game score. The Knicks outscored the Jazz 108-76 over the final three quarters after looking like hot dogshit to start.

Two things I’ve known for ages: 1. PhDs (often) love to hear themselves talk more than anything else in life. 2. Academics are the stupidest smart people on the entire planet in the aggregate. I say this as a PhD who has been in academia for 20 years. When you talk a lot & are too self-assured…

Our Haitian union siblings are being stripped of their work permits and deportation protections as the Trump administration moves to end Temporary Protected Status. Make sure your representative is signed on to the #HaitiTPS discharge petition to extend protections: act.seiu.org/a/haiti-tps-...

He’s incredibly unlikable which is a shame.

After Luka made the crazy falling out bounds three in OG’s face I turned off that game and called it two nights. Sat out the Clippers too. Time to regroup at a team and as a fan.

It bothered me to see that Aaron Boone, who turns 53 today, is two years younger than me. 😨

The Knicks have two jobs to win this game. Stop fouling. Hit their threes even at a league average rate.

14-1 is pretty great!! Who was the 1? Must have been the best team in the league or something!

Such a weird and unbelievable box score. If you guessed that Landry Shamet was a team high +21 in 19 minutes you’d say, “I forgot he played.” The Nuggets had 30 assists. The Knicks had 44!!!!!

I’ve said for a long while that the Knicks have a title shot because the Nuggets are great in the West but we own them. I’d love to see them in the Finals.

The Knicks had a 1-13 streak against the Nuggets before Brunson arrived. Since Brunson, the Knicks are about to be 7-1.

SCOOP — Body camera footage obtained as a result of my lawsuit against the DC Metropolitan PD confirms DOGE and the Trump administration openly admitted they were entering private property when they raided the building on March 17, 2025. That didn't stop MPD from breaking down the doors. My report:

New York Attorney General Letitia James is investigating the death of Nurul Amin Shah Alam, a Blind Rohingya refugee who died in the cold streets of Buffalo days after Border Patrol dumped him without coordinating with his family or lawyers.

Shouldn’t the Democrats’ position publicly be somewhere closer to “We need to investigate & adjudicate every illegal military action taken by the Trump administration & remove the group from office, if found guilty. The Hague should be involved.” In that direction even a little to show a spine.

The algorithm keeps feeding me video where Perk says Brunson is a title away from greatest Knick. Clyde won two, played in 3 Finals & lost in a ECF in a 4-year span. Brunson can be the 2nd best Knick unless he does that. Pat played in a Finals. On teams for 2 Finals. One ECF loss. That’s #2 now.

When I was in high school in the late-80s one of my best friends was from Aibonito, PR. I used to go home w/him on break & he took me to baloncesto. Aibonito Polluelos, Atleticos de San German, Baloncesto SN Mayaguez. My boy loved Georgie Torres & when he shot he used to say, “GEORGIE!”

Hornets have won 6 straight games by 15+ points, the longest streak by any team since the 2017-18 Warriors. It's tied for the 2nd-longest streak in NBA history. ht: @stathead.com

When you lost a three point game after two missed threes with seconds left, it’s always going to be the margins. OKC hit 6 more threes. The Knicks only made 10 at 29%. The Knicks crushed the boards even w/o Mitch & had 12 offensive to OKC’s 3. We had 88 shots to their 73 to keep it close.

True or False: The 2012-13 Knicks win a championship with Brunson in place of Raymond Felton. Brunson/Kidd/Prigioni JR Smith/Shumpert Melo/Amare/Novak/KMart Tyson Chandler/Sheed

Refrain: if Republicans can’t step up to stop this at this point there’s definitely no hope of it happening. From cliche to archetype.

The two-man lineup of Jose and KAT (El Gato and Grand Theft Alvarado) has been phenomenal. In the 113 minutes the two have played together (not a minuscule sample size), the Knicks have posted a: Defensive Rating: 92.6 Offensive Rating: 129.1 Net Rating: +36.5 (!!!)

Tuesday’s win was the 10th game Jose Alvarado has played in a Knicks uniform. He is a +93 over those ten contests. Only three players in franchise history have posted a higher +/- over their first ten games with the Knicks: Patrick Ewing, OG Anunoby and Josh Hart.

Through 62 games: 👀 Thibs 2024-2025: 40-22 Hart 37.8 MPG Mikal 37.8 MPG OG 36.6 MPG Brunson 35.5 MPG KAT 35.2 MPG Brown 2025-2026: 40-22 Hart 30.3 MPG Mikal 34.0 MPG OG 33.0 MPG Brunson 34.6 MPG KAT 31.2 MPG

Just reviewed the close to the game and the Knicks only led the Raptors by two, 95-93, with a few minutes to go. They closed 16-2 to win 111-95. Special.

This is one of those games where it’s easy to overlook Brunson only committing one turnover to go with 10 assists and a steal. Total control.

The Knicks won the second half 43-37. Let that sink in. I posted that the Raptors were playing really great defense in the second half. They held the Knicks to 43 points. But the Knicks held them to 37 which is absolutely berserk.

I want someone in the national media to talk about the Knicks defense. Since the very weird 2-9 stretch they’ve flipped a defensive switch and they’re elite.

The Raptors defense has been really good this quarter.

This case is horrifying. The man had deferred action, was on a full path to a green card, is a college grad magna cum laude, and ICE arrested him randomly while looking for someone else: “What do we do?” said one ICE officer, to which another replied “We’re going to take him with us anyway.”

we appear to have four competing fascist movements jockeying for control: blood & soil nazism under miller and hegseth, darwinian ecofascism from rfk, technofascism under vance and musk, and one Big Wet Hitler who understands the true animating core of the american volk is a deep love for shopping

“Scripture is full of kings brought low by their own arrogance”

Musk, worth $829 billion, owns X. Bezos, worth $234 billion, owns The Washington Post & Twitch. Zuckerberg, worth $231 billion, owns Facebook, Instagram & WhatsApp. And now Larry Ellison, worth $202 billion, is about to control CNN, CBS, TikTok & HBO. Yes, this is oligarchy.

Surprise! The Jeff Bezos-owned Washington Post is against my 5% billionaire wealth tax. I wonder why? If enacted, Bezos would owe $12 billion in taxes, and an average family of 4 would receive a $12,000 direct payment. Poor Jeff would be left with just $224 billion to survive.

I’d like to point out that the Knicks are 40*-22 where the * is the NBA Cup Championship. Phil Jackson’s 40-20 thing is within any reasonable margin of error.

There’s always one quarter per Knicks game that they forget to close. That dates back for all of eternity.

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

Today’s military strikes on Iran — carried out by the United States and Israel — mark a catastrophic escalation in an illegal war of aggression. Bombing cities. Killing civilians. Opening a new theater of war.

You can just say things.
