The Sacramento Kings are not a good basketball team — but that’s because they play in the west. Put the Kings in the Eastern Conference, and they’d still be playoff contenders — despite sporting a 21-37 record on the season.
Knicks head coach Derek Fisher was less than pleased with the lopsided loss and “questioned his teams character and integrity.”
“It was definitely not the level of character and integrity this group has been showing in recent weeks,’’ coach Derek Fisher said. “That was the most disappointing part. It’s not necessarily losing the game but just the way as a group, we couldn’t find a way to compete.
The Knicks starting five for this ballgame featured Lou Amundson, Cleanthony Early, Andrea Bargnani, Langston Galloway and Tim Hardaway, Jr.
No one in the group scored more than seven points, including Hardaway, while they all combined for 24 in total on 8-of-29 shooting.
