Derek Fisher Compares 2015-16 Knicks to 2014-15 Hawks

From the outside looking in, the 2015-16 New York Knicks have low expectations. From the inside looking out, the Knicks are ready to compete for a championship and disprove the critics.

If you ask head coach Derek Fisher, the 2015-16 Knicks could mirror another team that defied expectations and severely overachieved: the 2014-15 Atlanta Hawks, per Marc Berman of The New York Post,

“Based on the fact we don’t have a certain caliber of player on our roster other than Carmelo, people assume we’re rebuilding,’’ Fisher said after Wednesday’s second day of practices.
