The season mercifully will be over soon, but first the Knicks will stage a six-game homestand that will determine whether they go down as the most dreadful team in franchise history.
The Knicks (14-57) need to go 4-7 in their final 11 games to avoid the franchise record for futility. Derek Fisher’s 2014-15 club had the worst overall record (17-65) in Knicks history.
While the Knicks looked dead at Toronto on Monday night in the capper to their staggering road schedule that began after Christmas, the homestand will be no picnic in Central Park.
In fact, the home cooking could turn as rancid as week-old corned beef and cabbage, because the first five games are against teams in playoff slots.
