The New York Knicks’ season isn’t going well and the news and rumors are ramping up.

Check out the latest buzz below.

Anthony Not Going to Panic

Carmelo Anthony said that he’s not going to panic over the Knicks rough 4-14 start.

“That comes down to us as individuals whether we panic or not. Me being one of the leaders of this team, I’m not gonna panic, so none of my teammates are gonna panic,” Anthony told ESPN.

“Every day is a new day. And tomorrow we got another opportunity to try to turn this thing around.”

The Knicks have a good shot at a win on Tuesday against the Brooklyn Nets, who are also struggling at 6-9.

Anthony said that he’s trying not to let the negativity into the team’s locker room.

“It’s a challenging mindset,” Anthony said of not letting the team become accustomed to losing.

“I think anytime you’re losing basketball games, negativity, lack of confidence can start to seep in. But that’s something I don’t want to deal with, we shouldn’t have to deal with.”

Anthony also said he felt normal soreness after playing 41 minutes on Sunday night against the Miami Heat.
