Optimistic thoughts for negative Knicks fans needing hope ahead of Game 2

Related Topics: Julius Randle, Miami Heat

Sunday’s game one loss to the eighth-seeded Miami Heat was a tough pill to swallow. The Knicks had an amazing opportunity to get ahead in the series with Julius Randle out and Jalen Brunson having a subpar game. Instead, they allowed a veteran Heat to stay in the game too long, ultimately succumbing to Jimmy Butler, Kyle Lowry, and a horrendous shooting performance. Now, New York has a tough hill to climb as they’ll have to win four of their next six games without home court advantage. But here a few things fans can think about to stay somewhat sane and hopeful heading into game two.
