To all the NY Knicks haters…kick rocks!
On the last day of February, in the year of our lord 2021, the SportsCenter Twitter account sent out this seemingly innocuous tweet about the Knicks.
Totally harmless.
The tweet stated three facts that were true on that date and time. First, the Knicks were indeed 18-17. Second, the Knicks were absolutely in 4th place in the Eastern Conference. Third and finally, it unequivocally represented the Knicks’ best start since 2012-2013.
What I should have done after seeing the tweet was click the heart and move on about my day with the joy and knowledge that the preeminent cable sports show was talking about my favorite team in a positive way for the first time in a long time.
