How bad is it for the Knicks? Aside from being 5-32 and despite having Carmelo Anthony on the court, Derek Fisher on the sidelines, and Phil Jackson on staff, the Knicks haven’t had anything to cheer about this season.
It’s so bad, the NY Times is looking to mercifully end their Knicks beat writer’s time on the Knicks and save him from having to cover the team.
[W]e feel it’s only merciful to give our Knicks beat writer, Scott Cacciola, a break from such woeful basketball. He deserves to see the game played at a higher level. For the next month or so, we would like to point him to some good, quality basketball, wherever it might exist.
Yeah… it’s that bad in the Big Apple.
There’s nothing to cheer about in MSG and hopefully this doesn’t mean Melo and his agent are looking elsewhere to play next season. If so, then there’ll really be nothing for Knicks fans to celebrate.
