The New York Knicks have won 2 straight games, and the team seems confident that they can keep the wins coming. The Knicks have been in the playoff mix all season, but there’s been a different swagger lately since the team acquired guard Derrick Rose from the Detroit Pistons.
Since Rose has entered the lineup, the team has gone 2-1, losing a heartbreakingly close game to the Miami Heat, followed by wins against the Washington Wizards and the Houston Rockets. Even before Rose’s arrival, the team had been playing up to some tough competition.
