The Knicks viewed January as an opportunity to beef up their overall record with a stretch of 12 out of 14 games slated to be played at home, but the Garden has been anything but a party so far for Tom Thibodeau’s team this month.
The Knicks suddenly own a slightly better record this season on the road (14-8) than they’ve managed on their home court (13-8) through Friday night’s defensively challenged loss to the Timberwolves.
Of course, Karl-Anthony Towns has sat out the past two games with a thumb injury, but the Knicks suddenly have dropped four of their past six at MSG to open this pivotal schedule segment, with the only wins coming against the Raptors and the Bucks.
The Knicks are 4-6 in January overall after posting a 14-2 mark in the month one year ago, coinciding with the arrival of OG Anunoby on Dec. 30 in a trade from Toronto.
They have lost twice in January to the West-leading Thunder, plus single defeats to the Bulls, Pistons, Magic and Timberwolves with nemesis Trae Young and the Hawks coming to the Garden on Monday for an MLK Day matinee.
