If you’re a New York Knicks fan, life is not as cruel as you thought.

The team is currently the 4th seed as this is being written and they’re always competing night in and night out.

We’ve witnessed many classics in the first half including the twenty-point win against Milwaukee, RJ Barrett’s 28 point explosion at Golden State, as well as the 140 point performance as a team against the Sacramento Kings.

Throughout this set of games, we’ve learned so much about a team that we thought would be a bottom feeder, a team that wouldn’t see a lick of the play-in tournament.

The Knicks are winning again and the fans are basking in the glory.

Now we’re as invested as we’ve been in years and I can speak on behalf of countless Knicks fans when I say we’re as excited as we’ve been in many seasons.

The young core is seemingly developing along with coach Tom Thibodeau and the team finally has an established all-star in power forward Julius Randle.

In addition, New York has traded for Derrick Rose who’s making the most out of his second go-around in New York, and it has been made evident that Leon Rose is not done wheeling and dealing.

After over 35 contests, the second half of the schedule has just been released and it’s time to get ready for another slew of games that will determine if the New York Knicks are a playoff team.

Here are 3 matchups to watch in the second half of the season.
