Kristaps Porzingis’ Knicks admission: ‘I miss this place’
NY Post
The reaction to Kristaps Porzingis’ return to the Garden on Friday won’t be as viciously loud as it was in 2019 with just 10 percent capacity allowed during this pandemic season.
But the 2,000 fans permitted inside when the Mavericks visit the Knicks should be vocal. And judging by last season’s nasty reception and social media, the 7-foot-3 Latvian is still viewed as a villain and undoubtedly will receive more jeers than cheers. Ironically, Porzingis, traded from the Knicks 26 months ago, said he’s greeted differently on the streets of Manhattan when he visits, though he gave up his midtown apartment.More Related News

I always find myself standing with a handful of writers surrounding Bill Parcells maybe half an hour after the Jets lost the AFC Championship game to the Broncos.
