The Hornets have gotten off to a strong start to the season after taking the Hawks behind the woodshed on Sunday. Now they face a Knicks team that has had a similarly strong start.
The Knicks are 2-1 with their one loss coming in overtime to the Memphis Grizzlies on opening night. They followed that up with commanding wins over the cellar dwelling Pistons and Magic. They've been led by Julius Randle, who has recaptured his Most Improved Player form and has started the season averaging 21.
