New York Knicks: 10 best single-season defensive ratings in franchise history

For the modern-day New York Knicks teams, defense has been troublesome at times. The offense usually finds itself, but blocking shots and staying in front of the opposition is an inconsistent part of their makeup — at least over the past 10-plus years.

Which of them was the best in defensive rating over a single season, though?

  1. Marcus Camby – 2000-01, 90.
