The article discusses the recent poor performance of the New York Knicks under coach Tom Thibodeau, highlighting their struggles against top teams and disappointing results. An overview of power rankings reveals the Knicks dropped to sixth place, barely escaping further decline due to the absence of clearly superior teams in the NBA. With a current performance record showing they remain winless against the league's best and trailing in significant games, the team's viability as a contender is called into question, showcasing glaring weaknesses defensively and in game management.
The Knicks remain winless against the three best teams in the league, now 0-7 after ugly losses in Cleveland and Boston over the weekend.
The last few days marked a dark stretch for New York with the Manhattanites making it clear they're not as much a contending squad as some would like to believe.
Six of those seven losses have come by double-digits, and the Knicks have trailed each of the last four by at least 27 points.
They've allowed 127.9 points per 100 possessions over the seven games, including 79 on 54 over their two first quarters over the weekend.
