In a topsy-turvy season like this, in which the Bulls and the Hornets are leading the East one week in, and the Timberwolves find themselves near the top of the West, it might sound overblown to refer to the Knicks as one of the NBA’s most overhauled teams.

Through their first four games, the Knicks are launching from deep 46 times per night.
