Knicks Report:
The Knicks roll into Washington with a 1-1 record, looking to get back on the winning track after splitting a road/home back-to-back to start the season; Wednesday’s 25-point win in Milwaukee opened eyes as New York dismantled the Bucks in their home opener, but Derek Fisher’s squad struggled to protect the paint against the Hawks the next night back at The Garden.
After scoring just 11 points in the opener, Carmelo Anthony poured in 25 points against Atlanta but the Hawks did a good job making the Knicks work for shots – Anthony made only 10 of 27 field goals, and he and Kristaps Porzingis combined to go 0 for 11 from downtown.
