The New York Knicks have one of the better starting lineups in the NBA. Derrick Rose, Courtney Lee, Carmelo Anthony, Kristaps Porzingis, and Joakim Noah are all respected players who have established themselves as consistent contributors.
Unfortunately for the 2-4 Knicks, the second unit has been as erratic as the starting lineup has been strong.
New York has 10 new players on the roster, with three new starters and seven new reserves. Thus, it’s hardly surprising that chemistry has been an issue early in the 2016-17 NBA regular season.
According to Steve Popper of The North Jersey Record, Hornacek hasn’t yet lost his confidence in the second unit.
