It’s Halloween Season and the New York Knicks are off to a blazing hot start to kick off the new NBA campaign. Despite some expectations that New York might come back down to reality after a jump scare of a year, the Knicks have spooked some of the premier teams in the Eastern Conference with wins over the Celtics, 76ers, and Bulls.

New York is towards the top of the NBA in 3 pointers made and after being dead last in pace last season, they now play some of the fastest and most thrilling basketball in the entire league. To sum all of this up, the orange and blue have simply improved as a team.

The holes that prevented them from moving on past the 1st round last playoffs seem to have been resolved here in the early going.

This means teams who have laughed at the Knicks in years past are in for a bit of a jolt. Here are 3 frightening realities Knicks opponents will come to realize when they match up with New York throughout the duration of the season.
