The retooled Knicks have looked more cohesive since getting destroyed by the Celtics on Opening Night, but they only have split a pair in their next two games against recent Eastern Conference playoff foes.
The Knicks flushed a 13-point third-quarter lead Monday night to Donovan Mitchell and the Cavaliers, and they lost for the second time in three games to start the season, 110-104, at the Garden.
“I thought it was honestly just a weird game from start to finish. It was kind of a grind-it-out game,” Jalen Brunson said afterward. “[We] had a 13-point lead and then let it slip away.
“It’s no excuse. We’ve got to play our best basketball in the fourth quarter and we didn’t tonight.”

The Knicks at least appeared to survive a third-quarter injury scare involving Brunson, but perhaps not with Josh Hart, who limped off the court late in the game.
Hart was questionable to play due to an ankle issue, and he scored 16 with 13 rebounds before limping to the locker room late in the fourth quarter, shortly after a mid-court collision with Cleveland’s Caris LeVert.
