Couldn't Do Bad for Good

The Knicks beat OKC last night - really whooped them.  The night belonged to the Knicks. Unfortunately, in terms of pursuing the best lottery choice, The Knicks are still in it but facing serious competition.

But we won and it was good to see and watch.  Lance Thomas earned getting signed to a contract til the end of the season.  He is looking more and more like a long term glue player.

Also of note is the fact that Tim Hardaway Jr is beginning to play serious ball again.  He's not only scoring points but he's playing defense like the Knicks played defense in the nineties.  His foul takedown of a driving Westbrook is a highlight reel moment - ballsy stuff.

It also means the Knicks need to be careful not to sell 'low' if they sell at all.  Timmy is coming on and some astute GM will reconsider crufty trade deliberations that need recalibration.  They'll be looking to steal Timmy.  Make them pay, Phl.  Make them pay.

And is that swagger we're seeing from King Cole?  He's becoming a likeable beast under the boards.  Hustle, too.

Most pleasantly surprising is Melo's sudden and epiphanous new court behavior - making his teammates better!  Welcome to the superstar club, Melo.  We thought you'd never get here.

Necessities

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.
