Courtney Lee apologizes to Knicks fans, calls out team

The New York Knicks are headed exactly in the wrong direction as the NBA’s second half gets into full swing. Winners of just two games in their last 10, they fell flat on their faces Monday night at home against the Los Angeles Lakers losing by the blowout score of 121-107. Lamenting this fact, shooting guard Courtney Lee apologized to Knicks fans and called out his teammates Tuesday morning.

Defense has been a tremendous problem for the Knicks, who rank No. 25 in the league in points allowed. During their last 10 games, they’ve held opponents to under 100 points just one time, which has a lot to do with their inability to consistently win.

Despite this, the Knicks remain just 2.5 games behind the Detroit Pistons for the No. 8 seed in the Eastern Conference. If they could just learn to play team defense they’d have a legitimate shot to sneak into the playoffs.

Hopefully Lee’s message doesn’t just pass through without an impact. Knicks fans are among the most loyal in the nation and deserve better than they’ve gotten the past decade-plus.
