As the seconds waned in the final game of February, the best month for the NY Knicks in years, center Nerlens Noel walked off the court exasperated. His legs wobbly and sweat dripping down his face – he still held his head up high.
He may be exhausted, but the unsung hero of the Knicks’ success can continue to hold his head high if he keeps performing like he did yesterday.
Nerlens Noel played 40 minutes of his team’s 109-90 shellacking of the Detroit Pistons – easily the most of any player on either team.
