It’s been a dramatic last couple of weeks , so let’s get into it!
Knicks
Unfortunately ladies and gentlemen , the Knicks have fallen back into the NBA cellar.
It really all started for them , after a heartbreaking 116-115 double overtime loss to the Chicago Bulls on Monday (11/5), at MSG. In that game , the Knicks couldn’t stop Zach Levine who had a career high 41 points.
After defeating the Hawks 112-107 a couple nights later , led by THJs 34 points, the Knickerbockers finished their two game road trip by falling to the NBA best Toronto Raptors 128-112, before returning home a night later and getting their tails wiped by the Orlando Magic 115-89.
Through all of this heart ache , the NYK have found some confidence in Enes Kanter , Mitchel Robinson( Who set the Knicks rookie record for most blocks in a game with 9 against Orlando ) ,Alonzo Treir , Kevin Knox , and Emuinaul Mudiay.
The 4-10 Knicks get back at it tonight against the OKC Thunder (8-5), in Oklahoma City.
Update : Knicks lose 128-103.
Rangers :
Finally, the NYR are hot !
They have won 6 of 7, and have grabbed 13 out of a possible 14 points in the standings, during that stretch .
They have been defeating good teams , like the Vancouver Canucks , Columbus Blue Jackets , Montreal Canadians , Buffalo Sabers , Anehiem Ducks , and the San Jose Sharks !
This streak , has put the Rangers in 3rd place in the Metropolitan Division, and in playoff position.
I can’t really name you one player that has led this charge, because everyone has just been jelling lately! A different hero every night !
What I can tell you , is that the Rangers (9-7-2) and the New York Islanders (9-6-2) will clash on Thursday night at Barclays Center , with the winner likely taking 1st place in the Metropolitan Division!
Giants :
Giants win !!! Big Blue finally won again, on Monday night , as the Giants defeated the San Francisco 49ers (2-8) , 27-23, in California, with Eli Manning turning back the clock and leading a last minute TD drive to Sterling Sheppard in the 4th Quater , which completed the NYGs 20-10 second half comeback!
Eli also found Odel Beckham JR in the end zone twice in this game , which was one of the reasons why Eli was able to engineer his 31st 4th Quater comeback of his career!
Big Blue is 2-7, and will face former teammate JPP , Jason Peter Paul , and the 3-5 Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday (11/18) at MetLife Stadium.
Yankees:
The Yankees filled one of the 3 open slots in the rotation by bringing back CC Sabathia on a 1 year $8milion deal.
This fills the 5th spot in the Yanks rotation and now makes way for two star pitchers .
Report :
Yankees offered Sonny Gray for Jackson Profar Texas said no .
The Yankees have been in trade talks with former Cy Young award winner Cory Kluber of the Cleveland Indians ,and James Paxton of the Seattle Mariners .
The Yankees have a potential trade option here to acquire Cory Kluber .
Indians get :
Clint Frazier
Justis Sheffield
Yankees get :
Cory Kluber .
The Yankees have also ramped up interest for Manny Machado!!!!
The Bombers have shown Interest in Japanese pitcher Yusei Kikuchi.
Will they land him ?
Two spots left ,and including JA Happ, 5 pitchers are on the Yankees radar , what will happen?
We will see.
Other teams :
Nets 6-9
Star Caris Levert is out 2-3 months ( ankle)
Jets 3-7
Lost to the woeful Buffalo Bills 41-10 on Sunday , looks like coach Todd Bowls will be a goner in the offseason.
Mets :
Jacob Degrom has won the Cy Young award !!!! He deserved it !
Jacob Degrom became the first Cy Young award winner in MLB history, with only 10 wins!
