With the East as wide open as it’s been in years, there exists many different potential opponents and outcomes for the Knicks heading towards this year’s playoffs. Let’s look into the crystal ball and assess all the options on the table.

The Knicks fell behind big and couldn’t quite finish the comeback. What they showed in last night’s loss could pay off come playoff time.

This year, Julius Randle can become the playoff hero Knicks fans long for. All he needs is more balance. And less.

There was much to see in the Knicks gutsy win in Atlanta, but it was a lot of what we didn’t that made the difference

Broadway’s best was Julius Randle, leading the Knicks to their first winning streak in weeks.

The Knicks got out to a 23-point lead in the first half, but familiar detrimental patterns by the head coach doomed them to a double-digit loss.

Facing Trae Young for the first time since last playoffs, the Knicks ran into a familiar situation: they had enough to get a lead over the Hawks, but not enough to put them away, underscoring the needs of the Knicks vs. their southern rivals.

The Knicks have won eight of 11 games, and they won the eighth behind miraculous play by two of their young guns — Mitchell Robinson and RJ Barrett, whose emergences are beginning to shape a second-half Knicks run.

The Knicks fired on all cylinders at home on Christmas day, gifting the fans a dominant win over the hated Hawks at the Garden.

Returning to the site of last year’s postseason failures, the Knicks put together a strong full 48 minutes of basketball against the Hawks team that bested them last season in the playoffs.

The most painful loss of the 2020-21 season seems to have laid the blueprint for the Knicks going forward. Could the Knicks be taking on the Hawks’ strategy for team building… but better?

The Knicks lost to the Hawks at home in Game 5, putting a cap on their 2020-21 season. But now isn’t the time for frustration — it’s the time for reflection of how much the Knicks accomplished this year, and how much more they (hopefully) have yet to come.

Despite their best efforts, the New York Knicks have suffered a gentleman’s sweep (4-1) at the hands of the Atlanta Hawks with their Game 5 loss.

The Knicks are facing elimination, down 3-1 and returning to Madison Square Garden. Can they turn things around and force a Game 6?

The New York Knicks dropped their second straight game against the Atlanta Hawks on Sunday, falling into a 3-1 hole in their first round playoff series. 

The Knicks are now down 3-1 heading home, after a nuclear third quarter by the Hawks once again put the game away early.

This game isn’t necessarily a must-win, but staring a potential 3-1 deficit in the face needs to awaken a sense of urgency in the Knicks. What adjustments do they need to make to tie things up headed back to New York?
