Knicks took 2/3 games in this past week’s matchups. They matched up against the Timberwolves on Nov 7th and won 120-107, the Nets on Nov 9th which was a loss 112-85, and finally the Pistons on Nov 11th which would be the Knicks’ second win in the week at 121-112. That puts them 6-6 barely hanging onto .500 early in the season. With the addition of Jalen Brunson to the team, the offense has seen a spark but has not found consistency. Barrett, Randle, and Brunson averaged 22, 25, and 21 pts respectively through the 3 games above. The knicks have been 40% in FG, 31% 3pt, and 41% in FT. They are rounding up the division second to last and although it is too early to panic, knowing the history of the Knicks, there does loom some foreshadowing on how our season may end up.
The Knicks will face off against the Thunder today Nov 13th, the Jazz Nov 16th, the Nuggets Nov 16th, and finish the week with the Warriors Nov 18th.
