I’m starting to think this team only knows to operate in streaks, whether those are winning or losing ones.
We suspected it was not entirely about Madison Square Garden, and our own Professor Miranda confirmed the Garden is and was never Eden. After Friday’s 124-139 loss to the Atlanta Hawks (24-22), the Knicks players did too after dropping their third game in a row, this one on the road. Perhaps they just can’t win games, no matter where they’re played, full stop.
In a wild matchup that had a bit of everything, New York found itself down as many as 13 points after allowing Atlanta to go on a monster 19-3 run to start the second half.
