A Knicks season that started with promise more or less ended with anguish Tuesday night, as All-Star forward Kristaps Porzingis tore his ACL against the Bucks. It may be hard to remember now, but the Knicks were briefly one of the NBA’s best stories for much of October and November. Porzingis was playing like an MVP candidate, Tim Hardaway Jr. was making this SI writer look like an idiot and the team appeared to have cleansed itself of Phil Jackson’s stench. But a winter swoon soon started, and now the Knicks look more like the punchline they’ve been for much of this millennium, only this time, it’s more sad than funny.
