Anthony Davis dominated the Knicks until they finally knocked him out of the game with a hard foul. New York was more concerned with Derrick Rose than Davis. Davis had 40 points and 18 rebounds before leaving with a left hip injury in the New Orleans Pelicans’ 110-96 victory over the Knicks, who started the game without Rose and lost Carmelo Anthony to an ejection.
The Minnesota Timberwolves loss to the Sacramento Kings on Wednesday dropped them to 8-10 on the season. The fourth consecutive loss had Wolves star Anthony Edwards fired up postgame at himself, his teammates and the fans.
Edwards greeted the media by asking “What you wanna know, why we’re trash?” From there, he called his team out for frontrunning.
“I don’t like frontrunners,” Edwards said. “Myself, I’m not a frontrunner. I hate to have frontrunners or to think we have frontrunners on the team. I don’t think we have any of those. It look like we was frontrunners tonight, 100%.
“We was down, nobody wanted to say nothing. We got up and everybody cheering. … We get down again and don’t nobody say nothing. That’s the definition of a frontrunner. We as a team, including myself, we all was frontrunners tonight.”
Edwards said that the team, himself included, aren’t listening to or following the gameplan from the Minnesota coaches. He also called his team “soft” because they refuse to communicate with each other. He said the Timberwolves all of their own agendas, while also calling out the fans for booing them throughout recent home games.
“However many of us it is, all 15, we go into our own shell and we’re just growing away from each other. It’s obvious,” Edwards said. “We can see it. I can see it, the team can see it, the coaches can see it. The fans … booing us. That … is crazy, man. We’re getting booed in our home arena.”
Las Vegas bookmakers would install last year’s Warriors squad as a favorite over the 1995-96 Bulls team that went 72-10 in the regular season.
