The Grizzlies have worked hard to be the winningest team with a negative point differential, and had they somehow managed to hang on to their fourth quarter double-digit lead and comfortably won without any drama, that would have ruined all that hard work. As my high school principal once asked the student body after a kid got suspended for making an ill-advised prank 9-1-1 call from the payphone(yes we had payphones, yes I am old), “Where’s the thrill in that?”
For the second consecutive night, the Knicks stormed back from a double-digit deficit, and for the second night in a row they still fell short, this time falling to the Grizzlies 91-85.
