It’s been an inconsistent stretch for a Knicks team that only yesterday came home from an up-and-down road trip. After it looked like the team finally got into high gear with their blowout win in Phoenix, they laid an egg against a woeful Jazz team, only to eviscerate the reigning MVP in Denver. Even after that, a brutal game in Dallas and the definition of sleepwalking in Charlotte represented another low, although last night’s beatdown of a depleted Pelicans squad was refreshing.
Despite the ups and downs, the constant has been the captain, Jalen Brunson.
