The Ewing Theory

A theory hashed by ESPN.com writer Bill Simmons and his friend Dave Cirilli. It that explains the reason why teams inexplicably become better after their star player leaves the team for any reason (trade, injury, etc.). Two elements must be present for a situation to be explained by the Ewing Theory: 1) The team has a star player who receives a lot of attention but never wins anything, and 2) The star player leaves the team and everybody writes the team off.
The Knicks lose Patrick Ewing to an injury in a 1999 NBA playoff series with the Indiana Pacers. Everyone writes them off. The Knicks then win three of the next four games and win the series to advance to the NBA finals.

Patrick Ewing

1. noun- a great new york knickobocker. One of his greatest moments was when he went up for a dunk & his penis fell out of his shorts. Therefore the "urban legend" was started that Patrick Ewing, till this day, tapes his gigantic, mamoth penis to his leg, inorder to protect it from falling out of his short shorts. That is another reason why b-ball players stopped wearing short shorts
2.adj- derives from the noun "Patrick Ewing & refers to his huge shlong.
1- Wow did you see Patrick Ewing & his dunk in which his shlong fell out of his pants; Oh my!
2- Indeed sir, your Patrick Ewing is showing quite well today if i may add
