More New York Knick Sorrows




Posted by Jeff Chan Categories: Editorial, NBA,

The New York Knicks are terrible The only good thing that comes from the New York Knicks playing so bad this season is that the corporate big-wigs are giving up their seats every so often, so I was able to check out the Knicks Friday night loss in heart-breaking fashion to the Chicago Bulls in the front row.  The celebrities this time in MSG were Adam Sandler, Ja Rule, and Kevin Bacon - all sitting next to each other.

Watching from the front row, I was directly behind Brandon Tierney of 1050 ESPN radio and had a few observations.  The speed of the game is amazingly fast, it is played at a much faster pace than it looks on television, and even from other seating sections.  If a guard blows by his man, the big guys helping out to block the shot have to react instantaneously, otherwise it’s going to be a lay-up for the opposing team.

Well, up close in personal, you can see that none of the Knicks players play with passion or any intensity except for Channing Frye.  Francis and Marbury are trying some of the time, but both are either being moody, arguing with referees and not getting back on defense and are just plain not inspiring teammates.  Curry and Crawford look horrible, aside from the occasional Sportcenter highlight type moves, otherwise they are both very overrated - their stats do not reflect their actual impact on the game.  Marbury also does not get any of the questionable calls going his way from the referees, especially with him going to the basket.

For more sorrows and commentary, here is another suffering New York Knicks fan.  For this will surely be the very last time mentioning the pitiful Knicks for the rest of this season, I promise you that.
