Oh Knicks, my Knicks, you’ve done it again,
Lost by fifteen—your familiar refrain.
You brought out your stars, your bright orange glow,
But alas, dear Knicks, it was all for show.
Jalen Brunson, the maestro, was hot as the sun,
Thirty-seven points! What more could be done?
But Mikal and Karl, our next-best bets,
Combined for forty-five—a game of regrets.
Meanwhile, Dallas, oh, they danced with glee,
A basketball blitz, a Mavericks spree.
Kyrie Irving spun his magical tale,
Twenty-three points, never one to derail.
And Naji Marshall—who?—you might scream,
But twenty-four points dashed our team’s dream.
P.J. Washington chipped in nineteen,
Quentin Grimes, our ex, looked especially keen.
The scoreboard laughed as it flashed bright and bold,
One-twenty-nine to one-fourteen—same story retold.
A Broadway tragedy, but not quite Shakespeare,
More like Groundhog Day, Knicks fans shed a tear.
Defense? Who needs it! We’ll trade it for flair,
Like a team at the circus, mid-air on a dare.
Offense? Oh, sure, we’ll score in streaks,
But consistency’s something we’ll fix in weeks.
Or maybe not. Who knows with this squad?
Rooting for them feels both loyal and odd.
So here’s to the Knicks, our lovable jest,
Masters of heartbreak, the league’s very best.
But hey, there’s always the next home game,
For more hopeful dreams—and more of the same.
