In yet another pitiful display on their home court, the New York Knicks were demolished by the Indiana Pacers, 119-92. Indiana's Mike Dunleavy had a career high 36-points in the Knicks thrashing.
After the game, Isiah Thomas spoke of his teams lollygagging, "...our collective energy, heart, toughness,
we don't gut it out for 48 minutes. We don't grind and
we don't compete like we should for 48 minutes and I've never ... a lot of things that can be said about me and teams that I've coached and the way I played, but
I've never been accused of not having heart or competing. Tonight was very discouraging to me because
we didn't collectively play with heart and compete like I know I do.
I can give you a lot of things, but I can't give you pride and heart."
During the game, there was an 11-minute stretch where the Knicks missed 20 shots.
Perhaps the most hilarious thing I've read this week. From the AP, "Curry was also the victim of a hoax. Word somehow got out that he guaranteed a victory -- which Curry denied -- but word got back to the Pacers, who believed it. O'Neal said the players discussed it and thought it was strange."
When the opposing team finds it strange when you allegedly call for a win, you know you suck.
