Last season, the New York Knicks made its second straight conference semifinals under coach Tom Thibodeau. This year, the team looks to go all the way. With plenty of momentum thanks to a talented roster, the Knicks could be the team to beat.
The team faces the No. 6 seed Detroit Pistons in the opening round. The series starts in Madison Square Garden.
The No. 3 seed, the Knicks (51-31) won one extra game compared to last season. The offseason saw plenty of moves, including trades that landed the team Mikal Bridges and Karl-Anthony Towns. Re-signing OG Anunoby showed how serious New York is in securing the city’s first NBA Championship since 1973.

Towns led the team in rebounds per game (12.8). The Knicks are by Jalen Brunson, who led the team in points (26.0) and assists (7.3). Depth has been an issue for the Knicks. But with Miles McBride, Cameron Payne, Precious Achiuwa, and more helping out, and Josh Hart being a fixture in the lineup, a motivated New York roster could be a problem for any team.
Anything is possible if you advance far in the NBA playoffs. First, the Knicks must get past Detroit.
