Reggie Bullock is ready to take back his role in the Knicks tonight against the Cavaliers.

The 29-year veteran believes he can help the 5-7 Knicks get off their four-game slide after missing their last two games with hip pain. The Knicks’ D scored low against Brooklyn in the last outing as they gave up 116 points.

“I feel great now,” Bullock told Zoom after Friday’s morning shoot in Cleveland. “I know my team. They need me out there. I have to be willing to let things pass. It is a difficult time for our team right now. Having another player is an asset to the team to help fight. ”
