The New York Knicks have an important contest against the Memphis Grizzlies on Friday evening, and while this random game in April might not seem like a big deal, the Knicks are desperately trying to end a bad streak of games.
The Knicks have lost five of their last six games, with their last victory coming against the Detroit Pistons in a blowout. Overcoming bad teams simply isn’t enough, but the Knicks have proved they can hang with playoff-bound, contending squads, they just can’t finish off games when it boils down to clutch time.
Forcing the ball to Julius Randle hasn’t worked for New York, but none of their other players are capable of hitting these game-winning shots at a consistent level.
