New York Knicks suffer first loss in first MSG game

The New York Knicks, fresh from winning their first preseason game against the Washington Wizards, suffered a resounding 115-99 loss tonight in Madison Square Garden. The Wizards’ bench spent the better part of the 3rd and 4th quarters, laughing and clowning, while those on the floor were throwing up three-pointers the Knicks just couldn’t defend against.

The Knicks lost the defensive edge they had on Monday night. During the first quarter they had it, but from the second quarter on, the Knicks did not look at all like themselves. All summer and during Training Camp that was all you heard.
