VIDEO: Knicks fan devastated by draft pick
A. Isaac 
The NBA draft happened last night and of course, that meant one thing–angry New York Knicks fans. Although they pale in comparison to their partners in crime, Jets fan, they nonetheless are generally unhappy with whomever the Knicks select.
As it happens, this year, the Knicks drafted point guard Iman Shumpert-a defensive-minded perimeter player from Georgia Tech. Considering the lack of defense the team played under Mike D’Antoni last year, it was a welcome addition.
However, the pick was met with boos and jeers from the crowd. This rather large man in particular was displeased with the selection.
Here’s how the rest of the first round looked. Not surprisingly, Duke’s Kyrie Irving was the number one overall pick by Cleveland.
