Led by league scoring champion Carmelo Anthony and Sixth Man of the Year J.R. Smith, the team electrified Madison Square Garden with a high-powered offense that set a then-NBA record for three-pointers made in a season. The Knicks reached the Eastern Conference Semifinals after defeating the Boston Celtics in the opening round, marking their most successful postseason run in over a decade and re-establishing the team as a premier force in the league. The 2013-14 New York Knicks season was highlighted by the historic individual brilliance of Carmelo Anthony, who earned All-Star honors and set a franchise record with a spectacular 62-point performance against the Charlotte Bobcats. Despite facing significant injury challenges, the team showed great resilience by finishing the season with a strong 16-5 run to remain in playoff contention until the final week. The campaign also saw the promising emergence of rookie Tim Hardaway Jr., who earned All-Rookie First Team honors, and a rejuvenated Amar'e Stoudemire, providing fans with many exciting moments at Madison Square Garden. A ten-time All-Star and 2013 scoring champion, Carmelo Anthony was a prolific forward who led the New York Knicks to three playoff appearances and their first division title in 19 years during his seven seasons with the franchise.
