The Knicks host the Clippers tonight, and luckily, the Clippers don’t really have a low post game at all, so the Knicks should be able to hang with them defensively fine. The Clippers have been a major disappointment this season, as even when Paul George and Kawhi Leonard play together the rest of the squad is so uninspiring that the end result is just…fine. Not awful, but not interesting at all. Basically, the Clippers had a whole bunch of guys who were hopefully going to make a leap and…none of them took that leap. It’s just this weird hodge podge of players, and they’re all making a lot of money! It’s such a weird team. Everyone’s old and not that good, while making a ton of money.
And yet, I guess if Kawhi goes nuts, they could make some noise in the playoffs. In any event, I think the Knicks beat then.
The Knicks, by the way, are possibly trading Obi, Fournier and a pick for Malik Beasley and Jarred Vanderbilt. Like so many Rose moves, it’s…okay. It doesn’t move the needle much, but it’s not a bad move, either. So sure, whatever, I’m fine with it.
Let’s go, Knicks!
