Magic 115, Knicks 89: Scenes from the worst game of the season

So, how was your evening? Did you watch the New York Knicks play the Orlando Magic Sunday night? If so, then boy do I feel sorry for you.

The Knicks didn’t score for the first infinity minutes, went down quickly 10-0, lost the first quarter 30-10, and mercifully ended the night with a 115-89 defeat. They were lucky not to lose by 50. Oh, and the Magic were missing one of their two best players in Aaron Gordon. What a shit show.

Were there any bright spots? Let’s focus on the play of Mitchell Robinson, who broke the franchise rookie record for blocked shots in a single game. The official scoring might change later — he’s currently credited with 9, but one of his blocks appeared to belong to Allonzo Trier — but he definitely broke the record of 7 set by Kristaps Porzingis and Lonnie Shelton.

We can also give a shout-out to Kevi Knox, who scored 17 points, got to the free-throw line 10 times, and threw down this beauty of a jam.

Whatever. Crappy game. Alex will have the recap.
