Knicks, Austin Rivers said they need to take a ‘deep breath’

Knicks guard Austin Rivers said everyone should take a “deep breath” and not worry about the team’s losing streak, most recently against the Hornets.

“We’ve played some of the best teams in the NBA … and half of our team is out with injuries,” Rivers said. “So the guys have to take a step forward and be better. Our defense was horrendous and this led to a bad attack”.
