The New York Knicks are having a disappointing season and the win-now mentality has once again shown its cruel side. If the Knicks end up with a sub .500 record, it will be the 12th time in the last 16 seasons that the Knicks were unable to win more than they lost.
The Knicks play in New York, one of the biggest media markets in the world, and the expectation from its people are high. Often times, the pressure felt from the outside affects the Knicks. It’s evident in the fact that Phil Jackson and the rest of the front office have never truly aimed to rebuild.
