The 2015-16 NBA regular season was difficult for the New York Knicks to get through. These statistics suggest the future is brighter than it seems.

The 2015-16 NBA regular season was one of the more underwhelming seasons in New York Knicks history. It was the third consecutive campaign during which the Knicks missed the playoffs, which is quite the disappointing development.

Tough as a 32-50 season is on the soul, one shouldn’t be so quick to ignore the silver linings.

It was the sixth 50-loss season in the past 11 years, but that isn’t the end-all and be-all for the evaluation process. There were a number of key developments and signs of improvement, and a 32-win season fail to neutralize their importance.

Even after a season with a win percentage of .390, the Knicks have many reasons to be excited about the future.

In some instances, the reason for intrigue is an individual player who has reinvigorated the internal hope for the future of the organization. In others, it’s a full team commitment to improving the flaws that plagued the Knicks in previous seasons.

For one reason or another, the following statistics provide reason for faith in the future of the Knicks.
