Since David Fizdale‘s firing, the New York Knicks have won three games under Mike Miller’s stewardship. A recent blow-out win at home against the Atlanta Hawks, in addition to a two-game winning streak with victories versus both the Golden State Warriors and Sacramento Kings, gave fans the hope they’ve been waiting for all season.
But despite some minor tweaks in offensive and defensive philosophy, fans need to be wary of placing too much stock into Miller’s recent success. Health has played a role in the Knicks’ recent surge; plus, it also helps when the front office provides the appearance of staying out of the way.
