Knicks Lose to Wizards 98 - 85

The third quarter meltdown is what sealed the Knicks fate last night.  The Wizards got great product from their bench and played with a lot of energy.

For the Knicks, the Smith Brothers - JR and Jason continued to impress as did Shumpert and King Cole who is rapidly claiming the center position minutes as his own.

What is becoming obvious is that Stoudamire lineups are tricky.  Sam and STAT and STAT and Prigioni lineups seem to fare poorly.

Larkin had a respectable but checkered game.  Turnovers all around were costly.  Melo had a respectable but checkered and critically flawed 3rd and fourth quarter.  A late questionable out of bounds call snuffed out a Knicks mimi-run.

Overall though, the Wizards simply outplayed the Knicks on the floor and earned the win.

Ye Newe Glory-torium

Here, dear readers, is the final resting place of all weary Knicks fans. Yes, here is where one comes when the Triangle refuses to have three sides, when biting one's lip from losing to win later is one loss too far,or when said fan simply hits 'rock' bottom. In short, "the ship be" eternally "sinking" here. Welcome aboard, rearrange the deck chairs as you please.
