By William Lee
NBA FANS!
The NBA has officially released the schedule for the 2015-2016 season!
According to Brian Windhorst of ESPN, across the board the NBA has decreased back-to-back, as well as a decrease in four games in five nights.
"There are only 27 cases of a team playing four games in five nights, down 61 percent from last season. The amount of back-to-backs have gone from about 20 per team on average last season to 18 this season. Back-to-backs that cross a time zone have been reduced 18 percent."
The Knicks schedule is HERE!
The New York Knicks have 17 back-to-back games this upcoming season, with seven nationally televised games. The Knicks will have three games broadcasted on ESPN and four games on TNT.

New York’s start to the season, kicks off right away in high drama with back-to-back games at the Milwaukee Bucks and then returning home for the Atlanta Hawks on a nationally televised game on TNT. Right off the bat the Knicks will face-off against Greg Monroe in their first game, the free agent who spurned them for greener pastors. Then the Knicks will see a familiar face early in Tim Hardaway Jr., who was traded for Jerian Grant on draft night.
The Knicks have a rough start to the season, starting off against six straight opponents that were in the Playoffs last season. New York will no doubt have a negative record when December rolls around, with 11/18 games against opponents that made the Playoffs last season. Then you add in teams that are a shoo-in to make the Playoffs this season, with one game at the Oklahoma City Thunder and two games against the Miami Heat…New York will be lucky to make it to December with a .500 record.
Another thing to note is that New York did not make it to the prestigious NBA Christmas games this season.
