DISAPPOINTING TEAM

New York Knicks

The Knicks aren’t a team without holes, that’s for sure. We expected them to struggle offensively when Carmelo wasn’t scoring well. We wondered about their frontcourt and what they’d do when the inevitable Tyson Chandler injury hit them (they sucked, that’s what they did).

The Knicks are lucky to be in the putrid Eastern Conference, where their 20-32 record has them sitting just 2.5 games back of the No. 8 seed. They still have a chance to right the ship, that’s for sure, but who imagined they would have dug themselves such a hole? Oh, and don’t say I didn’t warn you about J.R. Smith and how when he loses “it”, he becomes J.R. SMH.
