New York Knicks
Storyline: The Knicks will make the playoffs.
I bought into this team before the season, believing that they could win the Atlantic division. Although, that was mostly off the premise that I believed they would trade for Rajon Rondo.
That doesn’t appear to be the case anytime soon. At the same time, though, the Knicks aren’t playing terrible. They’ve beaten the Cavs and the Hornets this season, two projected playoff teams.
I don’t think they’re as bad as everyone thinks. I’m banking of them qualifying for the NBA postseason.
