The Knicks (9-7) won’t let Sunday’s stunning last-seconds loss to the Phoenix Suns get them down against the Hornets on Tuesday. Or, rather, they can’t let it.
Tuesday’s home tilt with the struggling Charlotte Hornets (5-10) marks the final round of group play in the NBA In-Season Tournament. The Knicks are 2-1 in East B following a stunning comeback over the rival Heat on Friday.
And if they beat shorthanded Charlotte, it’s off to the knockout round.
