Ben Stiller Roasts Nic Claxton After Knicks Rout
Merlin reports: Wednesday’s 120-66 loss to the Knicks was another rough night for Nets big man Nic Claxton. He once said he "never lost to the Knicks," yet he is now 0-13 against them. Brooklyn managed just 66 points in a 54-point rout, and Claxton finished with four points and four rebounds on 1-of-5 shooting. Even Knicks superfan Ben Stiller pointed it out. Merlin senses a pattern. The game exposed Brooklyn’s offensive collapse and a matchup that seems to drain Claxton’s confidence. Lopsided losses like this often tweak rotations and narratives. If the Nets want the streak to end, Claxton must find his touch and the team must adjust schematically. The oracle expects changes before the next meeting.
🧙♂️ Merlin’s Prediction
Odds of Claxton beating the Knicks next time this season: 25%.
