So we know this already. It’s been documented. The Knicks are a mess, and that’s just the way the world works. Like getting inappropriately drunk at Christmas parties--we expect this. But like any good shitshow, it’s worth reliving from time to time. Just look at their box score from last night. AL HARRINGTON TOOK FIFTEEN THREE-POINTERS.
3. BREAKING: The Knicks Are Too Old For This Party
Highlights:
We covered the depressed state of affairs in Chicago and New York last week, and really, last night should have been a testament to the epic sucktitude of those two franchises. But then, it’s just like New York to steal Chicago’s thunder, isn’t it?
We wrote about a college team (Northwestern) that shot 47 threes this past weekend, and I said this, “like that power forward that just tries to dunk every time he touches the ball, there’s something entertaining, if ignorant, about the team willing to live-and-die by the three.Like basketball anarchy: you don’t have to endorse it, but it’s sure fun to watch from afar.”
But that’s a college basketball team. And there a million different things acceptable in college that aren’t okay for professional life. Anarchy is recommended in college; you’re doing it wrong if you’re not living with controlled chaos. But the D’Antoni Knicks are like that 38 year-old at the bar, trying to get CRAZY. At some point, it stops being fun and starts being a cry for help.
Al Harrington, Wilson Chandler, Jared Jefferies, and Danilo Galinarri combined to take 35 threes last night.
