The New York Knicks are heading in the wrong direction; they've lost four of their last five games by an average of 16.2 points per game.
The good news for the Knicks, though, is that their only win in their last five attempts came against the same Utah Jazz team that they are going up against Monday night.
New York will need a huge game from J.R. Smith, just like they got from him last time they faced the Jazz when he accounted for 24 points, six rebounds and three assists, all while shooting 55.5 percent from the field.
Carmelo Anthony is still out nursing his lingering knee injury, and Tyson Chandler is considered doubtful, per USA Today.
Derrick Favors, Al Jefferson and Paul Millsap will be looking to take this game over from the start with interior offense while looking to stop the Knicks from getting into the paint on defense.
Oh, by the way, the Jazz have only lost eight games all season at home. I'm sure they're not interested in changing that number to nine on Monday night.
