Basketball fans in New York are cautiously optimistic for the first time in what seems like ages. Basketball lovers in the biggest city in the country have been dying to see their beloved Knicks return to a competitive state.
The last decade was no friend to the New York Knicks. In fact, they were decidedly worse than any other sports franchise in the city. Fortunately for their sake, things look as if they may be improving given the fact that they won 17 games through the first half of the year. This may not seem like much, but it’s a very big deal to this team.
First of all, a record like this should actually be considered good for this team, which went 32-50 last season and 23-59 the year before. At their current pace, they’d win 35 games.
It’s true that the Knicks are on pace to finish the season with another losing record based on their performance thus far, but we have to look at a little more to acknowledge the extent of their recent improvement.
First of all, this is a team that went 3-11 to start out the season. Some simple math would indicate that this means the Knicks have been 13-13 ever since their sluggish November start.
Ever since then, they’ve played basketball with a winning record, something fans haven’t witnessed in ages.
Between David Lee and Wilson Chandler, the team has two young talents that any team would be happy to have. Lee may even make this year’s all star team, as he’s averaging nearly 20 points and 10 rebounds per night.
Second year player Danilo Gallinari has emerged as one of the best three point shooters in the league, averaging the second highest total three pointers made per game. It’s clear that this young man from Italy will be a valuable piece of a franchise on the way up.
Lastly, the Knicks will have the second highest free salary space after the conclusion of this season. The team is just about guaranteed to bring in a big name, which should once again bring the Knicks to the competitive state that the city has yearned for.
