To say that the New York Knicks were embarrassed by the defending NBA Champions on opening night would be a huge understatement. However, they did do a nice job of bouncing back against a beat-up Memphis Grizzlies team.
In the NBA, a win is a win. No matter who it is against.
With that said, because of how bad the Knicks looked against the Cavs, it’s difficult to get a good gauge on how good this team really is. No matter what, this team still has to be considered a work in progress.
