There's no two ways about it, this is just a hilariously fitting ending. I can't say the Knicks put their best foot forward on foreign soil, as they blew a 19-point lead by scoring all of 11 points in the 4th quarter before beating the buzzer by tardily swatting their way into the loss column. However, London was definitely left with the perfect impression of the unmistakably blue and orange foot they did manage to trip over. Without doing much research, I'd say it's debatable whether or not the Mecca of basketball has even been a first-hand witness to a moment quite as Knickerbonkers as that one, which is certainly saying something given a recent history that's as deprived as it is depraved. If the goal of global marketing is to give the rest of the world an honest look at all the NBA has to offer then the rest of the world is well on it's way to knowing the nightmare that is New York Knicks' basketball. I just hope they aren't disappointed when the next improbable contribution to the tank isn't quite as creative.
