New York Knicks: Unfair Schedule or Just Terrible?

 
in the past two home games, the New York Knicks have had two of the league's top scorers absolutely tear the pathetic Knicks apart. LeBron James last night puts up 52 points along with 11 assists and 10 rebounds. Kobe Bryant, a few nights before puts up 61 points. With the Celtics coming in town, what's next? The Knicks' problem is they just play "laxed" defense. The space they were giving LeBron was just inexcusable. Of course, they don't want LeBron to drive to the basket, but you don't want him to shoot either. The game before, the Knicks played up on Kobe, but he just drove right around the defense. My advice to both teams is just played hard and play physical. Teams who have stopped the both of them, have played hard and played physical versus two of the top players in the NBA. With the Celtics coming to the Garden next, the Knicks need to change their defensive attitude in order to stop players from scoring big numbers on them. (link)
