There are similarities between this year’s Knicks and the version two years ago.
Both teams entered the season with low expectations and were resilient during difficult stretches early in the year.There are differences, too. The 2020-21 team finished the COVID-shortened season in fourth place in the Eastern Conference with a 41-31 record and a .569 winning percentage.A fourth-place finish is realistic as the Knicks entered Monday one game behind the Cavaliers with 16 games left.The two rosters are very different.
The edition two years ago was 22nd and ninth, respectively. It was fourth in defensive rating, giving it an edge over the present-day Knicks, who are ranked 14th.The big question is one that won’t be answered for a while: Can these Knicks fare better in the playoffs than their predecessors, who lost in five games to the Hawks in the first round?
