Knicks Disappoint The Entire World: New York Knicks owner James Dolan promised free tickets to all remaining Knicks games to UN ambassadors if the team won Tuesday night vs. Golden State at Madison Square Garden. How'd that work out? Not too good. After the Knicks got pounded by the Warriors, 108 - 82, even a seasoned diplomat like UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon was moved to say of the Knicks, "they're playing poorly, very poorly, and I'm disappointed."

Just when you thought the Knicks couldn't sink any lower...

Maybe Isiah's got a Master Plan like the Lion's Matt Millen? I mean, the Lions are doing OK this year. Don't forget, they're so going to win 10 games. Give the Knicks about 7 years and they, too, will be destined to win 10 or more games. Have some patience!

Do you really think that a UN Ambassador couldn't get a free ticket? Tremendous move by the owner though.

I wonder if the New Zealand Ambassador went along? He or she would be used to massive sporting disappointment.

Love the title and I think jmd82 is on to something. What the Knicks need is just one more wide receiver and they are set.

Maybe the Knicks could trade Charlie Ward for Jon Kitna.

All the Knicks need s for someone to declare them a 50 win team and everybody to call them stupid.

What does Isiah have on New York Knicks owner James Dolan anyway? Shouldn't his ass be out the door like 50 games ago?

Post title of the month! Even beats rcade's bold "show us your tits" gambit. Isaiah Thomas failing to suppress a smirk while the crowd booed Marbury was just . . . precious.
