The ‘big accomplishment’ Knicks’ Jason Smith is so proud of

All 82.

Knicks big man Jason Smith has made it to the finish line and will play in his 82nd game — a full slate — when the club finishes its wrecked season Wednesday against the Pistons at the Garden.

Whether it’s his last game as a Knick is a big question. The 7-foot Smith’s accomplishment in staying healthy after two knee-injury riddled seasons in New Orleans may lead to a decent free-agent offer this summer, and Knicks president Phil Jackson may not be able to compete with it. Smith credited the Knicks’ training staff for keeping him in he lineup.
