One of my best friends, Stefan H., resides in Seattle. Until the SuperSonics return, the poor fella backs the Portland Trail Blazers (10-26). Whenever the New York Knicks (22-15) play the Blazers, we text a bunch.
My pal, like most people, predicted the Knicks to win tonight in a walk. It’s been another miserable season for Stefan as a Blazers’ backer. Quoth he: “It’s not even fun to watch. It’s coaching—the pieces are there for a fun team, but the offense is a disaster.”
Hoo boy, that sounds familiar. We’ve been in Stefan’s shoes before, so let’s appreciate what these Knicks are doing.
