Despite Andre Drummond destroying the Knicks in the paint and RJ Barrett having a horrendous game the Knicks were up by 5 points with 3:17 left on the clock in the 4th quarter and I knew they were going to lose. Why? Because against good teams they are a bunch of choke artists.
With Lebron nowhere in sight and Anthony Davis barely able to walk the Lakers took it to the Knicks in the final minutes of the 4th quarter, taking the game into overtime and sending the hapless Knicks back home with a 3-3 west coast road record.
With all the talk about the 90's style defense the current group of Knicks play it is apparent that when matched with equal defensive effort by their opponent they don't have the fire power to win and fold like cheap suits.
Playing their asses off is the only victory to take from this season Knicks fans. Remove any silliness about getting the right playoff spot to get to the second round. They still haven't clinched a spot in the playoffs. Just enjoy the fact that your team entertained you this season.
This collection of Knicks will not be here next season. Enjoy them while you have them.
Knicks lose again, Lakers 101- 99 Knicks.
