Knicks’ NBA Schedule Post All-Star Break: Opening Night Against Giannis Antetokounmpo & Other Important Fixtures
Follow Us
The New York Knicks are focused on securing a place in the postseason this year for the first time after 2013. But it looks like the second half of the schedule which was just released won’t make it very easy for them to get there. With a 15-17 record in the Eastern Conference, the Knicks are standing sixth.
Only five more games are left before the second half of the 72 game season kicks off for New York. Can they sustain themselves for 40 more games to secure a place in the playoffs?
Before the second half begins, they have one very challenging matchup to overcome, which is against the Golden State Warriors. It will be interesting to see if their superstar Julius Randle can take on Steph Curry.

After that, they are facing the Sacramento Kings, Indiana Pacers, Detroit Pistons, and San Antonio Spurs. These are games that can actually improve their record to a great extent.
New York Knicks schedule after All-Star break
The Knicks could really use the rest they are getting in this All-Star break because what’s waiting for them on the other side is going to shake them up a little. They start off with four games on the road against the Bucks, OKC, Nets, and then the 76ers.
But the toughest part would be the month of May. En route to the West, they will have to face the Rockets, Grizzlies, Nuggets, Suns, Clippers, and the Lakers. This is the crucial phase that can really affect their chances for a place in the playoffs.
