Despite Tuesday night’s thrilling nail-biter not going the Knicks’ way, there was a certain high fans experienced from the contest. It was a potential playoff matchup filled with stars that went to overtime, and the Knicks, maybe more than any other game thus far this season, gave fans hope that while beating the Celtics may not be likely, it was at least possible. So coming off of that game, and then a day off filled with hindsight, criticisms, frustrations, optimistic hope, and much more, tonight’s contest against the Pistons, another potential playoff matchup, feels rather mundane and dare I say, even meaningless.
