The New York Knicks are coming off of one of the most heartbreaking losses in recent franchise history. Despite holding a 23-point lead over the Cleveland Cavaliers, the Knicks ultimately lost 104-101 after allowing LeBron James and Kyle Korver to dominate the fourth quarter.
True as that may be, New York is also fresh off of a game during which it began to establish its identity—and now it has a chance to take the next step in that process.
New York will host the Utah Jazz on Wednesday, Nov. 15 in what could be the ultimate measuring stick of its progress.
