 Knicks: Stop crying!
Aw!! The Knicks didn't like the fact that the Bulls scrubs tried to hit 100 pts.  As a long time Knick fan, I'm really to the point where I wouldn't be upset if they cut half the team and brought in 6 CBA players. Keep Balkman, Lee, Crawford, Curry and have a garage sale with the rest of the team.

Where's the beef? The Knicks had one with the Chicago Bulls. But things didn't heat up until after a rare blowout loss, 98-69, last night at United Center, that all but snuffed the Knicks' playoff hopes.
With the sellout crowd urging them on, the Bulls reserves fired away in the final minute of the game in an attempt to reach 100 points. Around here, 100 points and a win gets you a free Big Mac. And 22,296 Chicagoans were hungry.
"I don't cook, so I wanted one for myself," Bulls guard Chris Duhon said. "We certainly didn't mean any disrespect by it."
But the ornery Knicks, who were playing their fourth game in five nights (and it showed), took exception to the fun at their expense. Or, at least, the expense of the young players that Isiah Thomas had on the floor to finish a game that had been a 30-point blowout for most of the second half.
Steve Francis jumped off the bench as the final horn sounded and started barking at the Bulls players. Nate Robinson, who was suspended 10 games in December for his part in the brawl with the Denver Nuggets, was right behind him. Thomas cut them both off just as Bulls rookie Tyrus Thomas fired back at Francis.
As a veteran, I know when people are trying to run a score up on you. I told one of their players, if I had been in the game it would have been something different," said Francis, who played 29:56 and had six points.
