The NBA season is coming to an ending the next week. For some teams , these last few games are important and could decided their playoff positions, or decide if they will even make the playoffs. Unfortunately, my Knicks are in neither of those categories. They were mathematically eliminated last Friday with a loss to the Miami Heat,but everyone knew there was no way they were going to make the playoffs for about a month or two now. And to be honest, I'm not quite sure if I'm truly a Knicks fan now since Carmelo Anthony was traded to OKC over the summer. Watching him during his last years as a knicks was hard on me because I didn't want him to leave. But, I knew if the team continued to miss the playoffs he would soon be gone. This realization helped me prepare for his departure, but I still wasn't ready. The day he was traded I was happy for him but I cried a little. And I kept trying to convince myself that it was ok, and that him going to OKC would be perfect because I was born in Oklahoma, so it's a win-win for the both of us. I get to root for the team of my home state, AND be happy for him that he's in a winning environment again. But guess what.....I just don't like okc that much and I cant switch bandwagons. The poem melo wrote for NY after being traded made me shed tears in public that I was trying my hardest to hide. Check it out:
