On a night when the Nets honored the memory of Brooklyn rapper Biggie Smalls, the Nets came up big and the Knicks came up very small on Sunday night.
While the talk continues to be about the triangle offense, and Phil Jackson teaching the guards some options within his beloved system, the Knicks should consider bringing in someone to run a defensive clinic.
So much for the triangle helping to balance your defense. The Knicks trailed by 22 points in the first half and were beaten, 120-112, at Barclays Center.
The Knicks (26-41) did improve their chances of getting a higher draft pick.
