It’s been that type of season for the New York Knicks, hasn’t it? Now, that doesn’t mean the team has really suffered from having to navigate more injuries than any other team this side of the Atlantic.
With just 14 games left in their regular-season schedule, the Knicks are currently in possession of the no. 4 seed in the Eastern Conference boasting a solid 41-27 record only topped by Cleveland (two games ahead), Milwaukee (three), and Boston (13).
New York will enter Thursday’s matchup at the Denver Nuggets still in fourth leading both Orlando and Philadelphia by half a game and a full game each, although it’s also true that all top six teams in the East have won at least their most recent games through Tuesday’s slate, including five of those six having back-to-back wins or longer winning streaks.
