Call it whatever you want: Delete Eight, Loser’s Bubble, Scrubble, Tragic Kingdom, and the list goes on and on. The secondary bubble for the eight teams on the outside of the NBA’s restart isn’t a terrible idea in theory. However, it doesn’t make a ton of sense for the New York Knicks.
Last week, Sam Amick of The Athletic reported that the NBA was considering a second bubble and the Knicks “expressed reservations about participating.” Although it appears as if the league is pressing forward with the idea, the Knicks still don’t sound all that interested.
