Knicks Lose a Heartbreaker to the Nets
The Knicks had a chance to close the gap to 1.0 games against their cross-river rival New Jersey Nets but lost a heartbreaker 101-100 and are now 3.0 games back. The Nets were winning handily but the Knicks rallied to make it a game. The bright side is the fact that the Knicks would have folded last season in a game like this. They are not contenders yet but wouldn't classify them as pretenders either.
The Knicks task doesn't get any easier as they play against Indiana tonight, then have to face the Suns and Heat. As the Knicks are only 2.0 games out of 8th place for the final playoff seed (if they don't win the division), this is a critical part of the season as the trade deadline and All Star Break approach. If the Knicks put good games and WINS together, they CAN make the playoffs. The Knicks need to maintain their energy and determination.
