Knicks' Very Bad Week Somehow Gets Worse
With 8:18 left in the fourth quarter, the Knicks held a 13-point lead over the Sixers. Philly hadn’t done much on offense and a resurgent Derrick Rose was leading the Knicks just fine.

DeMar DeRozan Takes All The Hard, Bad Shots And It Is Glorious
DeMar DeRozan torched the Celtics for 41 points and 13 rebounds last night, and the Raptors’ leading scorer continues to feast on the scraps nobody else really wants these days: lots of contested midrange jumpers.

However, both short droughts are probably going to end this season, as the 24-...
