It's tough to project a path forward for the Knicks without knowing when—if ever—their injury issues will go away. If they did, it wouldn't be shocking to see them climb as high as the No. 2 seed given their collective talent and how much time they have remaining.
Again, though, that's asking a lot for a team with injury reports on almost everyone. The last time this team suited up, it was missing—clears throat—OG Anunoby, Julius Randle, Mitchell Robinson, Donte DiVincenzo, Isaiah Hartenstein and Bojan Bogdanović.
Things could dicey if the Knicks keeping having so many recognizable faces in street clothes, but they'll get healthier as they go, and they'll rack up plenty of wins in the process. Remember, they've gone 12-2 in games Anunoby has played, and they've won his 500 minutes by a staggering 252 points.
