Now for the top team on this list, New York. They’ll have their first crack at Philadelphia for the first game of the season. It may not prove who is the better team, but it will give them their first real test as a new unit. But the Knicks stand to be favorites to repeat, but this won’t be the same team they met in the playoffs last season. It’s going to be about matchups, and they have to capitalize with their wings. If they can do that, they can outplay a tough Knicks team.
