New York is 0-7 this season against Boston, Cleveland and OKC, a problematic trend the Knicks are running out of time to solve.

The two Eastern Conference ball clubs have played each other evenly in the NBA's 2024-25 regular season slate of games they have shared the court in to date. Both have had some blowouts, as well, but by and large seem evenly matched so far in the 82-game season.
