NEW ORLEANS — The consistent 30-point games are history and the shooting percentage has dipped to 44.4 percent.

The Knicks are dead last in three’s attempted and made. Jeff Hornacek hopes that changes.
Kristaps Porzingis has grown frustrated at his lack of shooting fouls and took to the media to air his grievences.
You may not be sure anymore if you’re watching basketball or you’re on the Superman roller coaster at Disney World.
You can say he’s ageless and even sublime. But can you truthfully say, as Steve Kerr did, that James is better in his 15th N.B.A. season than he was in his 10th?
With packed routines, the hard-working Brooklynettes and Knicks City Dancers are “there to create just as much of a show as the basketball players.”
The game isn’t coming as easy for Kristaps Porzingis these days as it was at the start of the season.
