Following New York’s Sunday victory over the 9-4 Atlanta Hawks, undoubtedly their best victory of the season, multiple key players on the team cited a team meeting as the reason for their improvement.
The Knicks produced 21 assists on 42 fields goals made, hitting the proverbial 50-percent assist ratio that signifies good ball movement in the NBA. If New York can maintain that level of offensive efficiency, they could elevate to one of the best offenses in the NBA.
Unsurprisingly, the star of the show for the Knicks was Carmelo Anthony, who provided 31 points on a very efficient 12 of 22 shooting.
