The Knicks are currently number 12 in the Eastern Conference with a record of 24-31. They have lost the last 8 of their 10 games. The Knicks have no chance of making the playoffs this season. All their players have been inconsistent with their performances.
Julius Randle, the face of the franchise, is only averaging 19.1 points but 3.5 turnovers. RJ Barrett has stepped up his game and is managing 18 points per game. However, he is not a leader yet and his individual performances are not helping the team win yet.
Derrick Rose and Evan Fournier do their roles on the team. However, in the end, the team looks to Julius Randle to take control and lead them to victory.
