    Game Thread: New York Knicks vs. Minnesota Timberwolves

    Maybe the Knicks will start a winning streak tonight!

    For whatever reason, Fizdale says that while DSJ will continue to start, Mudiay will play significant minutes off of the bench in his return. Interesting. I suspect that they just feel bad for Mudiay clearly being on the outs with the organization in terms of their future plans.

    Let’s go, Knicks! Go where? Hopefully not to a win, but go somewhere!
