Through 18 games of the 2022-23 NBA season, the New York Knicks sit at .500 with a 9-9 record. On Monday night, New York completed its five-game road trip with a 3-2 record after beating Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the Oklahoma City Thunder, 129-119.
After a three-day break, the Knicks will be back at MSG for a two-game homestand with games against the Blazers (Nov. 25) and Grizzlies (Nov. 27).
The NBA standings are everchanging, but as of Nov. 22, here’s what the Eastern Conference standings look like.
If the season ended today, New York would compete against Toronto for the seventh seed in the playoffs. The loser of that game would go on to face the winner of the Philadelphia/Brooklyn play-in game. If the Knicks lost to the Raptors and went on to beat the Sixers or Nets, they’d get the eighth seed in the playoffs. If they were to lose, they’d be eliminated from the postseason.
New York is in a pretty solid spot based on the team’s roster construction, but teams like Philadelphia, Brooklyn, and Miami are expected to climb up the standings. Indiana and Washington could drop down as the season goes on.
The Knicks have a current record of 5-5 against conference opponents.
The latest odds at FanDuel Sportsbook have the Knicks at +10000 to win the Eastern Conference.
New York is the third-best team in the Atlantic Division behind No. 1 Boston and No. 7 Toronto. No. 9 Philadelphia and No. 10 Brooklyn are right behind New York.
