On Monday night, Elfrid Payton made an incredible discovery: efficiency. The man who loves to take a layup over two big men, brick it, and chase his own rebound finally had a good game of the first time in his Knicks career. On Monday, he torched the Lakers for 20 points on 9-for-12 shooting from the field and led the …

The New York Knickerbockers have played three games since the All-Star Break and it has been a rollercoaster of emotions. It started off with a horrid showing against Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks. The Knicks’ largest lead that night was six points, when they led 9-3 in the first quarter. Antetokounmpo made a layup with 6:23 left in the …

A team of players with varied strengths and weaknesses, but used the wrong way. The Knicks aren't a perfect team and in that same light they are not as helpless as the record shows. The responsibility for that is shared and a potential solution may come from looking at this team in a nuanced way.
