Do the Knicks need to change the starting lineup?
With teams consistently placing their rim-protecting centers on Josh Hart and daring him to shoot, questions are growing about whether the current starting five is built for playoff success. While the numbers say the lineup works, recent matchups against elite defensive teams have exposed spacing concerns and slow starts.
CP The Fanchise and Justin Morelli dive deep into:
- Josh Hart’s impact beyond shooting
- Why teams are using the “center on Hart” strategy
- Should Landry Shamet or Deuce McBride start for spacing?
- The Mitch Robinson matchup case vs Cleveland
- How the Knicks can weaponize Hart as a screener
- The Zack Lowe take on New York’s offensive adjustments
Is this a lineup issue — or a confidence issue?
The Knicks have depth, versatility, and multiple closing options. But should the starting five stay intact heading into the postseason?
