The New York Knicks, after a good start to the season and the fall in the last two games, have reached the first distinct crossroads of this team’s season. On Monday they play the second half of a back-to-back in Charlotte. Interborough’s first match of the year against the Nets arrives on Wednesday. We have seen all this before. We have seen how fast the seasons can escape.
“The games keep coming,” Thibodeau said. “We have to be ready for Charlotte.”
