If you’re too young to remember the 1990s Knicks, this 2022 Summer League club might be the closest you’ll ever get. Our guys played hard — nearly made it to the mountaintop — but in the end they just ran into a superior opponent. The Portland Trail Blazers had their number the last time these two squads played, and they had the Knicks’ number again in the title game.
Quentin Grimes probably cost himself the Summer League MVP award — whatever that is worth — with a dreadful shooting performance: 2-10 from three-point range.
