New York extended it to 12 in the second before the Hawks surged ahead by nine and took a 64-58 lead into halftime. It’s a much-needed win for us and that was the focus.” Young was the star in his first postseason series, ignoring the profane taunts from fans and bowing to the crowd from near midcourt late in Game 5. “We knew that the crowd was going to have that energy similar to the playoffs and our focus was on us to play good basketball tonight, and we didn’t talk about New York or the playoff series,” Hawks coach Nate McMillan said. RJ Barrett had 30 points and 13 rebounds for the Knicks, who fell to 30-42 to clinch their eighth losing season in the last nine. “And I think if we have that type of mindset each and every game, we’re going to give ourselves a chance to win.”

Young hit 13 of his 25 shots on Tuesday, including seven of his 15 attempts from beyond the arc, and he absolutely baked Taj Gibson for his final bucket of the night. With the loss, the Knicks are now six games back of Atlanta for the final play-in spot with 10 games to play. The Knicks are almost certainly headed for the lottery.

The New York Knicks suffered another tough loss Tuesday night, falling 117-111 to the Atlanta Hawks. It was a hard-fought game that was ultimately dominated ...

He does have a player option after that year, but if New York wants to acquire Mitchell before then, it will likely be a costly maneuver. Walker was drafted ninth overall by Charlotte in 2011, and a return during the latter stages of his career isn't unfathomable. "According to an NBA source, Walker has been training in Charlotte, N. C., his former home, and New York, shuttling back and forth," Berman wrote. So the whispers around the league that the Knicks' front-office connections in the past with Mitchell, placing former Jazz assistant Johnnie Bryant prominently on the Knicks' bench and his longing to come home will make for an easy union are exaggerated." "The position we're in, they're all must-have games," Knicks coach Tom Thibodeau said, per Peter Botte of the New York Post. "So that's it. Thibodeau is expected to remain at the helm, according to Bleacher Report's Jake Fischer.

Sunday's loss to the Utah Jazz was a costly one for New York Knicks forward Julius Randle. The NBA.

They are just 30-41 and five games behind the Hawks for the final play-in tournament spot in the Eastern Conference. Randle's altercation with Johnson came early this month, and they each received a technical foul. After the duo exchanged words and bumped chests late in the third quarter, Randle went through an official to shove Johnson.

On Friday, the New York Knicks announced that they have signed Feron Hunt. He played in four preseason games for the Dallas Mavericks.

The New York Knicks will host the Atlanta Hawks on Tuesday night. Here's the prediction, betting odds, and TV channel for March 22.

I expect it to be a close game with New York escaping its usual collapse and edging Atlanta (even without Randle). New York’s currently five games back from Atlanta and a play-in tournament spot with 11 games left to play in the regular season. However, I think that the Knicks will bounce back from Sunday’s loss with a win on Tuesday. The most recent matchup took place on Jan. 15 when Barrett and Julius Randle combined for 50 points in a 117-108 win. The New York Knicks will face the Atlanta Hawks for the fourth time this season on Tuesday night.

Julius Randle was penalized $40000 by the NBA on Tuesday for directing hostile language at a referee, bringing his total to $130000 in fines this season.

He also was docked $25,000 in January for egregious use of profanity in interviews and $15,000 in October for throwing a ball into the stands. Last season's winner of the Most Improved Player award has lost his emotions at times in this disappointing season for the Knicks. He was fined $50,000 earlier this month for initiating an on-court altercation by forcefully shoving Phoenix forward Cam Johnson, making contact with a referee in his attempt to get at the Suns swingman and for not complying with an NBA investigation. NEW YORK -- Knicks forward Julius Randle was penalized $40,000 by the NBA on Tuesday for directing hostile language at a referee, bringing his total to $130,000 in fines this season.

His 102 points per 100 shot attempts ranks in the 9th percentile, per Cleaning the Glass, and is by far his worst mark since what was, for all intents and purposes, his rookie season in 2015-16. He's down from 24 points a night, and he's shooting just 41 percent from the field, down from 46 percent last season. Randle is putting up 20 points and 10 rebounds a night, so let's also have some perspective on the "tough season" tag.

Alec Burks had 21 points for the Knicks, who played without Julius Randle because of a sore right quadriceps tendon.

Randle, of course, was humbled by the Hawks in last year’s playoffs, and in many ways he’s seemed haunted by that for most of this year. And while it has been written in these pages often that firing Thibodeau would be a mistake, it is absolutely fair to say he has done a lot worse job with this team than he did last year’s.

We are blessed with hindsight, and so we know with certitude that life peaked for the Knicks in the minutes before they tipped off with the Hawks that evening, May 23, 2021. They had ended the season in a rush and earned a stunning No. 4 seed in the East. The Hawks were right there with them; they’d both gone 41-31 but the Knicks had swept the Hawks in the regular season. A mere 303 days earlier, this had been the hottest ticket in town and these were the two teams on everyone’s tongues.

It's time to continue our NBA odds series and make a Hawks-Knicks prediction and pick for Tuesday's game at Madison Square Garden.

This is a flat-out bad Hawks defense, and it will show in this game. The Knicks will be missing their best player in this matchup. New York isn’t the only team dealing with injuries in this matchup. Atlanta also shoots 46% from the field, a number that places them inside the top 10 in the NBA in that category. They do have a chance to get some revenge on the team that knocked them out of the playoffs last year, so this matchup should be an interesting one. They’re 35-36 and 10th in the East.

The New York Knicks recalled rookie Miles McBride after another career game in the G League. McBride dished out a career-high 18 assists...

McBride could earn minutes with the second unit and help shadow Trae Young, the prolific Hawks’ point guard. Through nine games in the developmental league, McBride averages 29.1 points, 5.8 rebounds, a league-leading 11.1 assists, and 2.7 steals. But despite his gaudy numbers, McBride couldn’t crack the Knicks’ regular rotation. McBride completed a monster double-double with 20 points, three rebounds, and four steals. We’ll try to figure out how to work that out. Julius Randle will be out against the Atlanta Hawks Tuesday with sore right quadriceps.

Trae Young again delivered the coup de grace. Silencing the boos with a fantastic showing at his favorite arena, Young dropped 45 points, including the ...

In his first game back in Madison Square Garden since last year's playoffs, Trae Young scored a game-high 45 points to beat the New York Knicks.

Whether fans would like to admit it or not, Young might’ve done the Knicks a favor by taking the game over on Tuesday night. Taj Gibson was tasked with guarding Young off a screen and the ending played out as you’d expect. That’s when New York’s inevitable collapse began and Young took the game into his own hands.

Trae Young had a postseason debut for the ages when the Atlanta Hawks defeated the New York Knicks in five games during last season's opening round of the ...

Knicks fans will enjoy that Young and the Hawks aren’t much better than they are. Young will take solace in the fact that the Knicks are a league-wide joke again. With the Knicks clinging to hope late, Young saved his dirtiest move for last. It isn’t an exaggeration to say the Knicks haven’t been the same since. Trae Young had a postseason debut for the ages when the Atlanta Hawks defeated the New York Knicks in five games during last season’s opening round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. The Knicks are again bound for the lottery this season.

SportsLine's computer model just revealed its NBA picks today for Charlotte Hornets vs. New York Knicks.

Charlotte is also in the top eight of the NBA in turnover rate, fast break points, points in the paint, and 3-point accuracy. The Knicks are also in the top 10 of the NBA in two-point percentage allowed, and New York is securing well over 73 percent of available rebounds on the defensive glass this season. Hornets? And which side of the spread hits nearly 60 percent of the time? The Hornets are also in the bottom five of the NBA in defensive rebound rate and assists allowed, with the league's worst mark in second-chance points allowed. Charlotte is No. 2 in the NBA in assists, averaging 27.6 per game, and the Hornets are in the top three of the league in assist percentage and assist-to-turnover ratio. The Knicks enter on the second night of a back-to-back after a home date with the Atlanta Hawks on Tuesday, and New York is 15-21 on the road this season.

The Knicks play the Hornets on Wednesday. It's time to continue our NBA Odds series and make a Knicks-Hornets prediction and pick...

Currently, the only player listed on the Hornets injury report is Gordon Hayward. This Hornets team is healthy and ready for battle. They are a team that has hope and a goal and will likely bring their all in this matchup against the Knicks. This Hornets team has consistently demonstrated their tenacity and unwillingness to give up in games. But the Hornets managed to kick things up a notch and cause a nine-point swing in their favor to come out on top. Only three games ago, the Hornets took down the team that just beat the Knicks. If Charlotte is able to keep up their pace and momentum then it seems like they may just roll right over the Knicks. However, they need to come in ready for battle. New York will look to bounce back on Wednesday in a winnable match against the Hornets. Charlotte is definitely a team that the Knicks can compete against, but they need to come in ready for battle. The Charlotte Hornets have also not managed to live up to the hype this year. The games where the Knicks have come out on top have been much more consistent. Charlotte has managed to win five straight games, with their most recent victory coming over the New Orleans Pelicans by 3. If Randle misses this game, then that would be a huge blow to New York. Randle is the leader of this team and his absence has significant implications. While the Charlotte Hornets have also been underwhelming, but are heating up and coming off of five straight wins. One of the things this Knicks team does well is start games strong.

The New York Knicks have announced their injury report for Wednesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets.

My brain knows this. I can do the math. However, the game was on TNT, and the media delighted in hyping this one as “Trae Young with another chance to eliminate ...

RJ Barrett got his 30 points, but he was rough from the field (9-25 shooting) and the free-throw line (11-17). Tom Thibodeau was in his element even with Julius Randle sidelined...perhaps even more so. When the Knicks took an 99-89 lead in the fourth quarter on a three from Miles McBride (DEUCE!!!). I was fully invested. However, the game was on TNT, and the media delighted in hyping this one as “Trae Young with another chance to eliminate the Knicks at MSG.” It was a cynical ploy to get casual fans to watch a contest between the 10th and 12th-place teams in the Eastern Conference.

The Knicks star has more than $155000 worth of fines from the NBA this season.

He is currently averaging 20.3 points, 10 rebounds and 5.1 assists. The 2021 NBA All-Star has a seen a slight decline in his production this season, averaging fewer points, fewer rebounds and fewer assists in comparison to the last campaign. Even more, Katz added that Randle gets fined for every technical fouls he receives.

Atlanta Hawks star Trae Young hasn't lived long enough but he sure has already become a villain for the New York Knicks.

They will face the Detroit Pistons on Wednesday. 10 spot to advance to the play-in tournament. He enjoyed talking smack to the Knicks and their fans, embracing the animosity.

Down six at the end of last quarter, the New York Knicks have now snagged the lead. They currently hold an 89-87 lead over the Atlanta Hawks.

Atlanta is now 35-36 while New York sits at 30-41. Be prepared to get familiar with the officiating crew. The Hawks are the favorite in this one, with an expected 3.5-point margin of victory. Power forward Julius Randle wasn't much of a difference maker for the Knicks; Randle played for 34 minutes with 6-for-21 shooting. One thing to keep an eye out for is Obi Toppin's foul situation as he currently sits at five. They currently hold an 89-87 lead over the Atlanta Hawks.
