The New York Knicks<\/a>\u2019 recent schedule hasn\u2019t done them any favors, and they paid the price for it on Friday against the Philadelphia 76ers<\/a>.<\/p>\n

After winning the NBA Cup against the San Antonio Spurs<\/a> on Tuesday, the Knicks had no time to celebrate their victory. Just two days later, they\u00a0 barely squeaked out a victory over the Indiana Pacers<\/a> on Thursday, and then were beaten 116-107 by the 76ers the following day, looking clearly fatigued being that they were playing in their third game in four days.<\/p>\n

Looking ahead of their next game against the Miami Heat<\/a> on Sunday, forward Josh Hart was asked about the Knicks\u2019 tough schedule of late.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe weren’t really looking too far ahead, so we didn’t realize how challenging going right into a back-to-back and then an earlier game on Sunday,\u201d Hart<\/a> said.<\/p>\n

Hart sat out for the Knicks\u2019 matchup with the Pacers on Thursday, but looked sluggish against the 76ers, scoring just five points, and snagging 10 rebounds on 2-7 shooting in 34 minutes of action.<\/p>\n

After a tired effort against the 76ers, the Knicks will look to right the ship against the Heat on Sunday. With a day off in between, the Knicks should be well-rested for a pivotal matchup with another Eastern Conference rival.<\/p>\n
