The New York Knicks are dominating the Eastern Conference point tally. They sit at the third spot right behind the Cleveland Cavaliers and Boston Celtics. Likewise, the Knicks boast an impressive 38-20 record and have won six of their last 10 games.

If there were any lingering doubts about Jalen Brunson’s ability to perform in the clutch, the New York Knicks' 110-105 win over the Philadelphia 76ers erased them, but he'll need to keep this up to give his team a shot against the East's elite.

There’s no sugarcoating it; the New York Knicks have struggled mightily against the top teams in the league. Against the Celtics, Cavaliers, and Thunder this season, they are 0-7, with nearly every loss being a blowout defeat.
