Bad day for Knicks fans a 50 point loss

NBA Obsessed takes you into the hit and run game of NBA Basketball.

So you are a Knicks fan and you know who you are, but you are also a Jets fan because it is cool to root for the Jets for the first time in quite a while and they have that cool quarterback Mark Sanchez who may not have Joe Willie’s arm, but appears to have his suaveness, if that is even a word.

You are at the Knicks game and they are on their way to losing by 50 points 128 – 78 to the Dallas Mavericks.

The New York Knicks with their hurry up style brought on by their hurry up coach Mike D’Antoni decide to go out of their way to get you to the Jets Colts playoff game as quickly as possible, so they fall behind, way behind.

But it was Mike D’Antoni who looked like he was in labor on the bench – with a pained expression in the second half. “It’s hard to comment on this game, it was so bad – bad in every area,” D’Antoni said.

The Knicks did the Jets fans in the audience a favor, allowing them to leave late in the third quarter when the club was already behind by 41 points.

The Knicks (17-26) have lost six of eight games and may have been full of themselves for competing with the Lakers Friday. The bored fans started chanting “Let’s Go Jets” early in the fourth and more than half began filing out to catch kick-off.

Now you swear off the New York Knicks because this is just a bad franchise going nowhere in a hurry with a definite emphasis on the hurry part. Maybe you thought getting rid of Isiah Thomas would help and it probably did, but the team he left behind was salary ridden and selfish and those things take time to fix.

Jason Kidd skipped the game and the Mavericks still dominated

You rush off to see the Jets play the Colts and hope the Jets defense can hold them and at halftime the score is 17 – 13 Jets and briefly you feel good about yourself, but this is Peyton Manning and you know how Peyton can play. Three touchdown passes by Peyton Manning in the second half and you end up with a very bad day. The good news is that the Jets look to be good next year and Sanchez should be better.

And the Knicks? They have to be better. There will be a house cleaning at the end of the year and maybe a trade before the deadline, but it will still be a slow process maybe taking a few years. It is sad to see the Knicks looking like this.
