Is it really necessary to put "main rivals" on this? I think its not needed, not "factual", and has a POV problem. Benje309 17:38, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
Must this article list Spike Lee among the names of actual players on the Knicks? They have plenty of celebrity fans. -- feitclub 16:18, Jun 16, 2005 (UTC)
What's with the last External Link? The one about bankrupting the Knicks. Is it necessary? It hardly seems like something that should be here. RttlesnkeWhiskey 04:06, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
There's a lot of names in the "Knicks are the worst organization in the NBA" section that are clearly not basketball players...Chuck Norris? Someone should double-check that part of the article.
The word "would" is used a gazillion times in the article. Can't it be written in a more user-friendly manner? elpincha 22:39, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
Done. Hopefully it would be easier to read now ;). - King 23:15, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
Guilty as charged ;-). But if you thought that my version wasn't user-friendly, then you should have seen the version I had to replace. It was written very poorly, and glanced over the past twenty years or so of the franchise, while it also included a dvd shill as well. I admit that my grammar is bad, but the team does deserve a detailed history. ErikNY 16:02, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
smokin' a J ......, shootin' a J..., We(knickerbockers)need to trade for a center(Ewing,Oakely type CALIBER)and A(Allan Jouston type guard.
He was a '98 starter, called "more Jamaican than Stella's groove". Who was he? Smokin' Joe 08:22, 19 December 2006 (UTC)pat ewing was the best
I was under the impression that the team nickname is Knickerbockers named after the fictional character Father Knickerbocker and it is Knicks for short. Raul17 17:39, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
Today I deleted this
KNICKS AND SAM AND ZACK ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Maybe this page should go on to semiprotection Vorrion 23:42, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
The following quotation is from the introduction of the New York Knicks article. It seems unnecessary, or perhaps in need of citiation (certainly in need of grammatical correction): "They recently won a game where the refs screwed the other team (milwaukee bucks) just because they favor New York. They are known to be in a conspiracy with David Stern."
Stephon Marbury is not the captain of the Knicks otherwise it would be on the website

Jerome James is
Wilson Chandler was the 2007 draft pick, not Jared Jordan. Jared Jordan was picked by the Clippers " http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/players/4323" while Wilson Chandler was the picked by the Knicks at #23 " http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/players/4301".
It says in the article that the team's name is "The Knickerbockers" but they are mostly know as the "Knicks". Isn't there official name currently the Knicks? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.68.105.22 ( talk) 22:33, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
Yes, the team official name is the New York Knickerbockers, and I also think the name of the article should be changed. Brady4mvp ( talk) 22:08, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
I believe that depth charts are very arbitrary. Players are often substitued in for positions other than those listed in the depth chart as well as in different orders. It is for this reason that i believe they serve no purpose on wikipedia. With your help, we can eliminate all the depth charts on wikipedia! Who's with me! —Preceding unsigned comment added by No compassion ( talk • contribs) 03:02, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
The New York Knicks are NOT the current most valuable franchise in the league according to Forbes. The Los Angeles Lakers are. This should be removed from the introduction.

According to: NBA.com, the Knicks finished second to the Celtics in the 1971-72 season. I am removing that division title from the infobox. LonelyBeacon ( talk) 20:42, 11 April 2010 (UTC)
According to [ the New York Knicks, while they tied the Celtics for the 1991-92 division lead, the Celtics won the division title; the team does not claim the division title. I am removing this from their list of division titles in the infobox. LonelyBeacon ( talk) 20:56, 11 April 2010 (UTC)

A resolved name for 2010- present era. ElectroPro ( talk) 16:51, 20 November 2012 (UTC)
A wikipedia entry on the Knicks is completely remiss without a listing of the team's yearly W-L record for its entire history. Would someone please put in such a listing and make an obvious link to it in the contents section? This is a major oversight. cheers-- Chafe66 ( talk) 07:05, 4 January 2013 (UTC)
The headers are stupid. Why are the full years not shown? This makes it stupid and inconsistent. 108.27.94.234 ( talk) 18:31, 13 August 2015 (UTC)ġ

User:Sabbatino is repeatedly removing properly cited information. Enough! Sylvain1972 ( talk) 19:23, 28 May 2018 (UTC)
2018 update- I don’t think there was enough legitimate discussion about what is the official name of the team. According to the Madison Square Garden Company’s 10-K SEC Filing for 2018, they refer to the team as New York Knicks, not New York Knickerbockers. [1] There’s even another New York Knicks entity called New York Knicks, LLC, however I will do more research on that. [2] While there is evidence that the team use(d) the name New York Knickerbockers officially and still do, saying that the name New York Knicks is not an official name is incorrect cause that name is indeed used officially. So at some point there is a possibility that the team did change their name to New York Knicks and maybe the Knicks organization that operates the team is referred to as New York Knickerbockers. This is worthy of discussion. Granthew ( talk) 07:45, 21 December 2018 (UTC)

"The Knicks also re-signed Tim Hardaway Jr. to a four-year, $71 million contract," I would like to add, "before Scott Perry arrival as general manager," because the decition was made by Steve Mills before. Also, I would like to add the link: https://www.nba.com/knicks/knicks-sign-tim-hardaway-jr

I would like to add in "2017–present: Post-Anthony and rebuilding" section more information about Kristaps Porzingis, /info/en/?search=Kristaps_Porzi%C5%86%C4%A3is
1) On 6 February 2018, in a 103–89 loss to the Milwaukee Bucks,[53] Porziņģis tore his left ACL.[54] He was subsequently ruled out for the rest of the season.
2) In October 2018, the Knicks decided against signing Porziņģis to a rookie extension, a move that will give New York an extra $10 million in cap space in the summer of 2019 while making Porziņģis a restricted free agent in the offseason.[55] Due to recovering from his ACL injury, Porziņģis did not play for the Knicks during the 2018–19 season.
3) On 31 January 2019, after a meeting with the Knicks left franchise officials with the impression that he wanted to be traded,[56] Porziņģis was traded alongside Trey Burke, Tim Hardaway Jr. and Courtney Lee to the Dallas Mavericks in exchange for DeAndre Jordan, Wesley Matthews, Dennis Smith Jr., an unprotected 2021 first-round draft pick, and an additional top-ten protected 2023 first round draft pick.[57][58]

No sources provide use of Knickerbockers as officiall name. Knicks is always used. Knickerbockers is the inspiration for the name Knicks. By that logic we have Boston Celts,Vancouver Johnny Canucks... Don't mistake the origin of the name and the actual name of the team. SerVasi ( talk) 14:30, 7 December 2019 (UTC)
I can present to you dozens of exaples where they call themselves the knicks.This is no proof of the name being official. SerVasi ( talk) 16:30, 7 December 2019 (UTC)

The table in the "Season-by-Season record" section has the Knicks listed as "4th, Atlantic" in the 2020-2021 season. The Knicks finished "3rd, Atlantic" in the 2020-2021 season. Awlevine ( talk) 05:50, 8 June 2021 (UTC)
I was shocked to not see this in here, all games with Knicks and hawks have been tense since Trae and the hawks gentleman swept the knicks in 2021, especially as Trae bowed as he hit the game winner. Melofy ( talk) 13:52, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
