2018-19 is about the rookies and the still-young players and their respective development for the New York Knicks. That entails a rollercoaster ride of nights like the season opener and what transpired against the Miami Heat, with a 30-point loss on the road.
New York is now four consecutive games in the hole, and with any down period comes adjustments to fix the issues. That may happen to the starting lineup, especially after the letting Miami shoot 48.1 percent and have their main five carve up the Knicks’ five.
As the dust cleared, though, few players emerged positively from the orange and blue, with Damyean Dotson the high-point man at 20 and 10 rebounds on 8-for-14 shooting and a team-high 34 minutes.
