The Knicks' Season So Far: A Balancing Act of Hope and Concern
The New York Knicks are in a unique position as they head into the second half of the NBA season. Currently sitting comfortably in a playoff spot, the Knicks have achieved this by relying heavily on their starters, who have been logging substantial minutes and providing significant scoring.
Record-Breaking Performance
The Knicks are averaging over 17 points per game, their highest scoring average at the halfway mark since the 1967-68 season. Remarkably, their starters are contributing to approximately 97 points per game, making them the highest-scoring starting unit since the Los Angeles Lakers in the early 1970s. Such statistics enhance the team's overall performance, especially in a league where scoring is paramount.
