NBA

If you asked anyone in the sporting world at the beginning of this NBA season, what were the chances that the New York Knicks would make the playoffs, after the laughter, they would have said no chance.

While sports venues are easing up restrictions on the number of fans that are allowed to attend a game, it appears all that pent up energy is coming through in a negative way.

The Playoffs are the ultimate post season battle and we have had some great teams fight to become world champions, and some staging incredible comebacks.

The NBA playoffs will begin this weekend and two New York Teams will enter through the Eastern Conference, The Knicks and Nets, two different teams in contrast, vying for a championship.

The polish put on Tom Thibodeau’s New York Knicks is starting to rub off, with the same look the team has had for two decades, the question now, can they win enough games to make the postseason.

The Brooklyn Nets continue to win, and have pulled to within a half game of the top spot in the Eastern Conference with a 112-107 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves last night.

The New York Knicks made no significant changes during the NBA trade deadline window aside from some minor swaps.

The Nets announced another piece of the puzzle to help them climb to the top of the mountain when it was announced that six time all-star and rookie of the year forward Blake Griffin would be joining the team.

The Nets score another big name.

The New York Knicks have moved above 500 with a convincing 190-90 win over the Detroit Pistons last night.
