Last night, 1235 miles west of Manhattan, something strange happened at Memorial Park Cemetery in Lawrence, Kansas. The locals reported rumbling and wailing coming from underneath the earth. The noises began at 6:30 p.m. Central time and persisted until nearly 9 p.m. Authorities are dumbounded as to what was happening or why it stopped. Knicks fans know better.
James Naismith invented basketball after his boss gave him two weeks to come up with an indoor sport that would keep athletes occupied and active during winters in Springfield, Massachusetts. Last night’s 140-121 Knicks win over the Sacramento Kings must have had J-Nais turning in his Memorial Park Cemetery grave.
