The New York Knicks: Analyzing Their Early Season Rise and Title Aspirations
The New York Knicks have made waves this NBA offseason, being one of the most active teams during trades and relocations. Notably, they offloaded an extensive number of draft picks to the Brooklyn Nets for star player Mikal Bridges and sent Julius Randle alongside Dante DiVincenzo in a significant trade for Karl-Anthony Towns. As a result, the Knicks have transformed their lineup into one that many consider a strong contender. However, their beginnings were shaky, and just ten games into the season, they held a 4-6 record. Recently, though, they seemingly found their groove, winning nine of their last eleven games, now standing at 13-8 with the fourth-best record in the Eastern Conference.
