Christmas, for many, is a day of rituals. Children who otherwise struggle to get out of bed every school day wake up bright and early, gifts in mind. Every year I make my mother cry (in a good way). My fiancee’s family puts apples in the bottom of their stockings and bananas at the top. There is comfort in the familiar. There was a degree of comfort in the Knicks’ 109-95 matinee loss to Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks. The game went exactly as you knew it would: close for a half, then Team Today inexorably pulled away from Team Tomorrow.
Bucks 109, Knicks 95: ‘Whatever’
