Ep. 33 Shock Jacques Knicks Podcast
“How did the Knicks not fire this guy?” New show this week! Where do I even begin? How about Steven Stoute? We find out more about him and how the Knicks mishandled yet another situation. How did this whole thing even happen and somehow everyone in this situation looks bad. Also, Worldwide Wes is too busy for the Knicks (according to the Knicks) what does he even do? I also look into Leon Rose’s potential impact on the Knicks and what he could bring to the franchise and how Bobby Portis picked up the weakest ejection of the season so far. We need to take a closer look at...

Wizards 114, Knicks 96: Scenes from the Knicks’ shooters taking an early vacation
Photo by Elsa/ At least Portis got ejected. The New York Knicks had been playing pretty well of late, which made some fans (myself included) forget how much they truly suck. They were kind enough, however, to remind us just how much in Wednesday’s 114-96 loss to the Washington Wizards at MSG. The game was sloppy throughout, but Washington didn’t pull away until the fourth quarter, when a host of Knicks fouls and a healthy portion of Bobby Portis bullshit allowed them to pull ahead by a few possessions. Knicks fans had reason to hope after referee Zach Zarba ejected Portis in the...

NBA News: Bobby Portis Not Interested In Buyout With New York Knicks
The 2019 NBA offseason was quite strange for the New York Knicks as they missed out on their top targets in free agency. There were high hopes among fans with reports linking the franchise to players such as Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, Kemba Walker, and Jimmy Butler. But the Knicks resorted to their backup plan after all by signing low-risk, high-reward players to one-year contracts. Bobby Portis was among those players recruited by the Knicks after agreeing to a two-year, $31 million contract. With the Knicks holding a team option in the second year of his deal, rumors have indicated that...

Bobby Portis has zero interest in a buyout with Knicks
For some NBA players, the opportunity to negotiate a buyout is a welcome development to make a move to sign with a contender. Such is the case with the likes of former Charlotte Hornets forward Marvin Williams and–should they seek a buyout–Detroit Pistons point guard Reggie Jackson. Other players, however, are more concerned with financial […] The post Bobby Portis has zero interest in a buyout with Knicks appeared first on ClutchPoints.

Knicks 95, Pistons 92: Scenes from the first four-game winning streak since 2017
Photo by Duane Burleson/ It’s been awhile. The New York Knicks stormed back late and out-slugged the Detroit Pistons, 95-92. It wasn’t pretty, but the Knicks have won four games in a row for the first time since December 2017. Everybody get naked! Head coach Mike Miller almost blew the game early in the fourth, keeping an ineffective Dennis Smith Jr. and Bobby Portis in the game as the Pistons stretched their lead out to seven. But then he replaced Smith with Elfrid Payton and Portis with Mitchell Robinson (yes, Mitch closed!) and the Pistons simply couldn’t keep New York off the...

Mock Trade Mailbag: The good, the bad, and the totally unrealistic
Photo by Nathaniel S. Butler/NBAE via Are you mocking me? The trade deadline is finally upon us! Thankfully the Knicks were nice enough to wait until the final day to make any actual trades, so this trade mailbag can run today and still seem kinda relevant. Thanks for enabling my laziness, Knicks! I got plenty of mock trades from all of you wonderful folks, so let’s hop right into the action here: Aspano: Timberwolves get: Bobby Portis and Dennis Smith Jr. Knicks get: Gorgui Dieng and a protected Minnesota first rounder The math checks out here, and I could absolutely...

Knicks 139, Cavs 134 (OT): “Starcus Morris”
Photo by Jason Miller/ No fake comebacks need apply. With trade rumors swirling around half the roster, the Knicks trailed by double-digits early and late before a stirring comeback bested the Cleveland Cavaliers 139-134 in overtime. There was much joy evident on the roster on a night that started out more compelling for who might be gone than anything else. Both teams were hot outta the gate. Cleveland went up 10 in the first, powered by 17 in the quarter from Kevin Love, but the Knicks used a late burst powered by Bobby Portis to cut into the gap. Your highlight possession of the...

Game Preview: Knicks at Cavs, 2/3/2020
Bobby Portis got to go. My lord it feels like we’ve watched this game eight or twelve times already this year. I don’t know if there could be a more underwhelming Monday night match up in the NBA. Regardless, here we are, the Knicks (14-36) are in Cleveland to face the Cavs (13-37). I just can’t wait for the return of Elfrid Payton. He’s just a thrilling watch. You feel like every time he’s on the floor, the Knicks nearly have a shot at almost having a chance. He’s the fucking best. Both of these teams want to trade their best players. Both of these teams stink....

At this point, however, if they play their cards right, New York could […] The post Rumor: Knicks more eager to trade Bobby Portis than Marcus Morris appeared first on ClutchPoints.
