Slow-starting Knicks fall to Magic in their first loss at MSG this season
NY Post
The Knicks met a stout defense and they went from a Ferrari to a used hatchback.
At least for a half.
By the time New York’s offense woke up at halftime, it was too late and its five-game winning streak was snapped Wednesday by the Magic, 124-107, handing the Knicks (7-3) their first defeat at home.
Jalen Brunson dropped 31 points but was among the frustrated Knicks, unable to crack Orlando’s defense in the first half and unable to stop Orlando’s offense in the second.
He ultimately fouled out with 1:52 remaining, committing the sixth personal on purpose to leave the blowout.
There was more complaining to the referees than usual from the entire squad, more fouling and less ball movement.
Mike Brown is ticked off by the starts but isn’t considering a lineup change.
Aaron Judge led the Yankees to a World Series appearance in 2024. Now, as captain of Team USA, he’s experiencing an atmosphere he says feels even grander.
Travis Kelce’s contract details have been revealed.
The Knicks won, but their coach was fuming.
ST. PAUL, Minn. — Rangers head coach Mike Sullivan developed a reputation for managing egos and personalities, as well as fostering sincere relationships with his players, over his decade with the Penguins.
President Donald Trump seemed to confirm he once broke up an elevator fight involving former NBA great Kobe Bryant.
SAINT PAUL, Minn. — With the Rangers hovering over the bottom of the NHL standings, it’s easy to root for whatever outcome would most likely lead to general manager Chris Drury announcing Gavin McKenna’s name on the draft stage at KeyBank Center in Buffalo this June.
WINNIPEG, Manitoba — When the Rangers started the 2025-26 season, Noah Laba and Matthew Robertson were the only first-year players on the Opening Night roster.
SALT LAKE CITY — It’s easy to forget about the quiet, which in Knicks World means Leon Rose. We’re approaching five years — amazingly — since the team president answered questions from the independent media, and I’ve always maintained that’s poor practice because it avoids responsibility. If there’s no public explanation behind a move or a goal, there’s no accountability if it doesn’t work out.
PORT ST. LUCIE — The Mets’ 2025 failing (one of them anyway) might be their big strength now.
The discourse has gone on for two seasons now. But it doesn’t exactly match reality.
