I didn't know that.
Anyway, until the NBA includes a provision for a team to throw in the towel during the game all this nonsense about being embarrased is just that - nonsense.
There was a time during the 80's/early 90's when teams like the Lakers spent 3 qtrs going up big then give an exhibition during the 4th qtr that Chick Hearn called "showtime". I don't recall anybody ever taking out Magic Johnson for dunking an alley-oop over him with a 25 point lead in the 4th qtr.
If the Knick players think their manhood is somehow wrapped up in getting an old fashioned azz-whooping then they should take it up with the guy who hired them to play on the team to begin with.
