No guts and no pride
The Knicks Lose Again Kings 93 - Knicks 83
The players should donate tonight's wages to charity since they certainly didn't earn it.

This is what happens when you don't develop your bench
The Knicks Lose Again, Jazz 131 - Knicks 125
Everyone is going to chalk this loss up to the Knicks being tired and several players banged up. But when you witnessed the Jazz coach not afraid to go 10 players deep to get the most out of his teams effort it is abundantly clear why the Knicks lost.
When D'Antoni attempted to go beyond his normal group of players and they gave him nothing he too could find nothing on his bench. Why is that? Because he hasn't played and developed the bench so there was nothing there to call upon when he needed it the most.
Will he learn from this? Of course not. And the Knicks will keep on losing to teams that they have no business failing against even on back to back road trip games.
