The New York Knicks and Charlotte Hornets know how to put on a good show. They also both know what it’s like to be owned by Michael Jordan. Neither knows anything about sustainable success. But their games are generally tight-knit, entertaining affairs, and tonight’s was too. Unfortunately the née Bobcats are now 3-0 this year against our boys after a 107-101 win. This goes down as another fake comeback, but it felt better than that. Maybe because of who was fueling the late-game illusions. To quote Warner Wolf: “Let’s go to the videotape!”
Three minutes into the game, Taj Gibson was on pace to score 96 points and Julius Randle 80.
