The New York Knicks have had a new swagger since they acquired Derrick Rose in a trade from the Detroit Pistons. The team has shown confidence in their game all season, but the recent acquisition of Rose has helped given the offense a new jolt of energy.

Rose has played exclusively with the team’s 2nd unit, a group that has been able to score with a lot more consistency than other Knicks’ lineups. The group is a lineup that generally consists of Rose, Immanuel Quickley, Alec Burks, Obi Toppin, and Nerlens Noel.
