The Jackson-Anthony-Derek Fisher triangle was supposed to help put the Knicks on the path to becoming a contender. Instead, Carmelo Anthony remains sidelined with a left knee issue that may need surgery and the Knicks continue to endure the worst season in team history.
The Knicks lost to the Rockets, 120-96, Thursday night, extending their single-season franchise record to 14 consecutive losses, their home skid to 11 straight and defeats by double digits to seven in a row.
They dropped to 5-34 with their 24th loss in 25 games.
