It hasn't been the dream start to the season, but increasingly positive signs are emerging in the New York Knicks' game. The low competition in the East could provide the necessary leeway for all the pieces to come together, allowing the team-building process not to be rushed.

They seemed like a solid and consistent team, with a clear identity where no novelty could generate any distortion. However, New York Knicks has not managed to internalize the changes in its roster, and its defense, the mainstay of Thibodeau's game plan, has wavered. While it is true that New Yorkers are still far from the desired performance in this regard, a different energy is already apparent in a team that has won five of the last six games.

Joys are coming on the offensive end, with exquisite scoring fluidity from Karl-Anthony Towns, a rising trend from Jalen Brunson, and good space utilization by Hart, Bridges, and Anunoby. Sustaining such a remarkable offensive flow is great news, as the defense will eventually improve its performance. Equally relieving is seeing that, despite the poor start, New York Knicks is already in fourth place in the Eastern Conference, having a significant margin to improve due to the weak competition it faces with its conference rivals.
