TEAMS: New York Knicks, Minnesota Timberwolves, Memphis Grizzlies
The tanking of the season by the New York Knicks continues tonight in Minnesota. Knicks guard Nate Robinson supposedly sprained his knee late in the fourth quarter against the Memphis Grizzlies on Friday night. The Knicks are truly starting to look like a team that is trying to lose as many games as possible to get the 2nd seed in the draft lottery. In the fourth quarter of last nights game the Knicks went with a lineup of Wilson Chandler, Renaldo Balkman, Randolph Morris, Mardy Collins and Robinson (before his supposed injury). Does anyone believe that group could even compete in the NCAA Tournament?
