| The Knicks went 2-1 this week. 2-0 after injuried to Amare, Bargnani, K-Mart, and Metta forced Woodson to go with the 2 point guard lineup that pretty much everyone on the planet except Woodson realizes is the way to go with this team. This week is the exact opposite of last week, it’s tough to rank because no one had a particularly bad week where last week was tough because no one had a good week. | |||
| Rank | Player | Comments | Last weeks Rank |
| 1 | Anthony, Carmelo | Lets see, all Carmelo did this week was have the highest scoring game of all time at MSG with 62 points on 66% shooting, 13 rebounds and zero turnovers while facing double and triple teams. Anyone who complained about his zero assists should be banned from watching basketball. He also surrounded that game with a 28 point 7 assits night and a 35 point 5 assist night. Even if the rest of the season is miserable , we got to experience one of the best regular season games I can ever remember watching. | 2 |
| 2 | Chandler, Tyson | Tyson is starting to look a lot more like the defensive beast we remember. Now that Woodson realizes (for now at least) that Tyler and Aldrich can handle center duty for 10 minutes each, Tyson can go all out for 30 minutes a night instead of playing an exhausting 40+ minutes. Everyone wins. | 1 |
| 3 | Prigioni, Pablo | Priggy is going this high not because of his numbers but because the Knicks hardly ever lose when he starts and he also makes Felton look like not the worst starting PG in the league. | 10 |
| 4 | Felton, Raymond | Felton looks like a good PG when there is another PG out there at the same time doing half the PG duties. Maybe it’s just because of Pablo (it is) but Felton did have a very good week even if the problem of opposing guards running amok still hasn’t been solved. | 13 |
| 5 | Hardaway Jr., Tim | Look who remembered how to shoot again! THJ looked very good (on offense) this week, especially during the Lakers game. | 9 Continue reading |

January 24, 2014 Carmelo Anthony set a career high and franchise record with 62 points in Madison Square Garden.
In a post-game interview with MSG’s Tina Cervasio, it was revealed that Anthony and the Knicks as a whole were inspired in the locker room before the game by a motivational video about greatness by a Mohammad Ali speech. Anthony said “My energy level went up, my focus level went times ten” after watching the video. It showed early, as Anthony drove to the lane throwing down a thunderous one handed dunk to score his 18th point of the game in the first quarter alone. This tied for most points scored in a quarter by any player so far this season. He would set a record this season for most points scored in a quarter on a step back jump shot to give him 20 points to end the first quarter, and also gave New York a 30-21 advantage at the end of the period.
Carmelo Anthony continued his rampage on the Charlotte Bobcats in the second quarter, scoring 17 points for a total of 37 points in the first half. The 37 first half points would mark the most point scored by a player in the NBA this season in any half played. Even with Anthony almost matching the total point output Charlotte was putting up, the Bobcats for most of the first half was always within striking distance, always within single digits deficit for the most part. It wasn’t until Continue reading
One of our listeners was lucky enough to go to a game court-side and took a few slo-mo videos. I figured it would be cool to share them with everyone:
It’s so nice having a defensive center again:
The Bucks missing the final two shots of regulation
and last but not least one of the stupidest moments in Knicks history in slow motion! You can see Beno and even JR showing how dumb they thought Bargnani’s shot was
20th win tonight? A winnable game tonight against a so so Bulls team. Comment below as the game goes on.
We’re not in the best of moods today as our cable provider has blacked MSG out. We do the top 5 bad things we want to happen to Time Warner Cable and James Dolan. We talk about the Lakers, Kings and Raptors games. We really expected to have a happy show today but between the blackout and the Raptors game it just wasn’t possible. Download Episode 94
