Grizzlies 96, Knicks 84: “First game”

The last Knick game before the Kristaps Porzingis era began was a 22-point loss to the Pistons. Two Knicks that night finished with a positive plus/minus: Cole Aldrich, who went off for 24 points and 15 rebounds, and Ricky Ledo. In tonight’s 96-84 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies, the only Knicks with a plus plus/minus were Mario Hezonja, Kadeem Allen and Wesley Matthews. The more things change, the more they stay the same.

New York started Dennis Smith Jr., Damyean Dotson, Kevin Knox, Noah Vonleh and DeAndre Jordan, who in a delightful pastiche of reality and trolling is older than Enes Kanter and yet already ahead of him on the depth chart.
