Photo by Nathaniel S. Butler/NBAE via Getty Images Woof. I’m disgusted. The Knicks wasted one of the finest performances of Kemba Walker’s stellar career — 44 points on 14-27 shooting, 9 rebounds, 8 assists — by putting together a defensive performance that will probably be viewed by Knicks fans when we are being tortured in hell. The Wizards shot 56.0% from the field and 43.2%...

Detroit did beat...
