Something that will forever haunt Knicks fans about the 2025 playoffs is the turnovers that caused them to unravel in the Eastern Conference Finals. Mike Brown has made it clear he wants the Knicks to play faster this season, which includes moving the ball more and making quicker decisions, something that will open the door for more turnovers.
The Knicks averaged 13.3 turnovers per game in the regular season last year, the fifth-best mark in the league. In the Eastern Conference Finals, they averaged 15.5, which would have been tied for the fifth-most in the regular season.
Tom Thibodeau ran a slow, risk-averse offense, something that helped keep turnovers low.
