On the fortieth episode of the Hot Hand Theory Podcast, Geoff and XJ dive into the roller coaster ride that has been the Knicks’ last four games. Despite sitting at 16-10 with an easy schedule ahead, the duo breaks down why the Knicks’ inconsistent play is concerning—and what needs to change for them to unlock their full potential.

XJ and Geoff tackle key topics, including:

• Why the Knicks’ shot quality has been worse than the scoreboard suggests.

• How the Knicks must adjust their strategy to maximize Mikal Bridges—and the offense as a whole—in particular matchups.

• The team's recent rebounding struggles.

• Why the Knicks are only scratching the surface of their potential and how adjustments to their offensive and defensive approach could lead to them being truly dominant.
