Kristaps Porzingis’ injury has left a dark cloud over the New York Knicks’ franchise. At this point, nothing takes precedence over his recovery and long-term health. Yet, truth be told, KP’s injury feels like the last straw to break the camel’s back. And in this case, crush the camel’s back, legs, and soul.
But this has been a slow burn. The season started with great promise. The Knicks felt like that new Netflix show that you can’t wait to binge-watch. They may not have had the star power of shows like Stranger Things or Black Mirror, but they crept up on you, maybe like Dark or Mindhunters.
