THe fix is already in. It was fixed when they got Lebron, and now they’re awarded the all-star game, Zion is going to Cleveland.

1st - a little insight into how often the knicks practice -Rookie lottery pick Kevin Knox looked tentative and out of sorts Wednesday in his second game back from injury. He was 0 for 6 from the field — 0 for 3 on threes — and was a minus-14 in just nine minutes, leading Fizdale to yank him.
“The kid hasn’t had a full practice,” Fizdale said, referring to a lack of a 5-on-5 scrimmage. “That was my big thing. I still want him to practice. The doctors cleared him to play so this is his practice right now. I like his shots — all down and in. It’s all a matter of time until clicks for him.”
Uncharacteristically, the Knicks scheduled a practice Thursday despite having two days off between games and traveling back late from Atlanta. It might have been with Knox in mind. Knox, who missed 16 days with an ankle sprain, is now shooting 4 of 23 in two games vs. the Hawks. He’s at 30.8 percent overall. That undrafted Allonzo Trier is their most impressive rookie shows again why the draft is a crap shoot.
2nd -Fizdale is doing whatever he can to stroke the ego of former starting center Enes Kanter, who felt disrespected by getting demoted for a rookie project in Mitchell Robinson. Kanter still is a double-double machine (17 and 11) off the bench. However, Fizdale gave him extra credit for his help defense on Atlanta’s Trae Young, indicating he was just as valuable as Frank Ntilikina. The Frenchman also acknowledged “special credit” to the Knicks center. Fizdale said Kanter has really “taken it to heart” about becoming a better pick-and-roll defender. He’ll never be a shotblocker. Kanter also made it out alive after he somersaulted as he tugged for the ball with equally powerful Miles Plumlee.
“I’m OK right now. I’m trying to get used to my next WWE career,” Kanter joked. “I’m fine. I watch a lot of wrestling so I know how to duck and I know to save my neck.”
Kanter’s spirits are rising. The Turkish big man even requested a hug from a reporter in the locker room after the game.

Asked what he has done to reach Mudiay, Knicks coach David Fizdale said: “Confidence. All of them. Not Trey as much, but Emmanuel, and Frank. All of them were lacking the confidence. I really just tried to attack what created that lack of confidence and how do we get you back to a level where you feel like we believe in you and we value you for who you are.”

i could see kanter in the WWE, both as a special guest and as a performer when he retires from basketball.
