""Our approach has to be better. We can't just look at their record and say, 'We're going to whip their butts.' We just have to be better altogether. Until we figure that one out, it's going to be a long roller coaster.""
"The Knicks have had to rely on second-half surges in order to beat opponents they should have dominated from the get-go. In three of their five wins, the Knicks have trailed after the first quarter.""
"This habit of slow starts is more than a bit disconcerting because while the Knicks might be able to overcome a bad start against a bad team, it's much harder to do against good or even mediocre ones."
Mitchell Robinson emphasized the need for the Knicks to adopt a better attitude when facing weaker opponents. Despite a five-game winning streak, the Knicks have often trailed after the first quarter against sub-.500 teams. This trend raises concerns about their ability to compete against stronger teams. Robinson pointed out that relying on second-half comebacks is not sustainable. The Knicks must improve their overall approach to avoid difficulties in future games, especially against more competitive teams.
