At the risk of jinxing, the Knicks kind of have Denver's number, scored 140+ against them in November and beat them by 40 pts last January. Can they do it again?
If so, will it be the first time a team scores 140 3 games in a row?
Hope you don’t mind but I’m stealing for the Gamethread
Google doesn't come up with the record number of 140+ games in a row, but this season, Knicks are second with
4 140+ (non-consecutive) games, behind Memphis' 5 games.

The world is all a-buzz about AI, but it cannot even answer a simple question like this?
Here is perplexity.ai 's answer to the question. I'm underwhelmed. It just has to search data, no crazy leaps of logic.

The New York Knicks recently scored 140+ points in consecutive games, which is a rare feat in NBA history. However, the specific record for the most consecutive 140-point games by a team in the NBA is not directly provided in the given search results. To accurately determine this record, we would need more comprehensive historical data. It's worth noting that scoring has been on the rise in the NBA recently, with teams averaging 115.5 points per game in the 2023-24 season, the highest since 1969-70. The league was on pace to have about 310 games with teams scoring 130 or more points in the 2023-24 season, which would break the previous record of 266 set in the 2022-23 season. While not directly related to consecutive 140-point games, it's interesting to note that on January 3, 2024, the NBA saw an unprecedented scoring night where five teams scored at least 140 points on the same day, which had never happened before in league history.1 This suggests that high-scoring games have become more common in recent years. To get the exact record for consecutive 140-point games, it would be necessary to analyze game-by-game data for all NBA teams throughout history. If you need this specific information, I recommend consulting official NBA statistics or specialized basketball databases.
I thought those were Jamal Murray's contract extension numbers at first.

Dunno if we can keep this up but we'll be well rested and we seem to have a handle on Denver in the OG era. Denver playing phenomenal basketball over the last cpl months but actually on a 2 game losing streak heading into this one
Gonna be a tough matchup but our boys are cooking with gas right now.
gone are the days when the only thing we could look forward to on a game thread were ToddTT cheerleader pics.
phucking love our squad.
WE are the tough matchup NOW

You all know I have big respect for Randle but here's another example of how KAT totally changes the ceiling. Who guards him? Joker? That's perfect for us because now because it forces their offensive MVP to chase KAT around.
All these games are super important. We are really building something here.
Interesting stat - the Knicks’ 60th straight win when holding at least a 15-point lead, the longest active streak in the NBA.
Knicks made them change lineups
God, ESPN is ****ing annoying.
