The New York Knicks suffered an ugly loss at the hands of the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday night by the score of 125-91. There were very few highlights for the Knicks, but one of them was an accidental soccer-style pass by Iman Shumpert to Steve Novak.
It happened in the fourth quarter (after most Knicks fans had probably turned the game off). Shumpert stumbled when trying to dribble around the Pacers defender and kicked the ball backwards across the court into the hands of Novak. It ended up being the perfect assist as Novak converted the three-point shot.
Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good.

How the Knicks perform in the 2012-2013 season will be a testament to an issue applicable across all sports; the value of knowledge and experience versus athleticism and youth.
Coming into the season the Knicks were the oldest team in NBA history with an average age on the roster of 32 years and 240 days. The team included a 40-year old forward in Kurt Thomas and two 38-year old...
