NBA: The Knicks were there…sort of

Nate Robinson led the way with 11 points as the New York Knicks were blown out, to say it nicely, by the Boston Celtics 104-59.  Fifty-nine…59…from a “pro” team…from New York.  The only saving grace for the pitiful Knicks was that the game was played in Massachusetts.
