If I could give one grade to the Knicks, it would be a “T” for Tank. It’s been a season of auditions with no regard for the win-loss record.
As the All-Star break concludes Wednesday with the Knicks’ return to practice, David Fizdale’s 11-47 tank machine will have to go 6-18 in its final 24 games just to tie the mark for worst record in franchise history (17-65, set in 2014-15).
Anything less and the 2018-19 Knicks go down as the worst Knicks team ever.
These midterm grades reflect that only to a point. This is the NBA’s youngest team and the marks are weighted to consider future potential.
