Celtics big man Kristaps Porzingis doesn't believe there is a distinct atmosphere when playing at Madison Square Garden, given that the Boston Celtics already play at the TD Garden.

While the Knicks faltered from there and missed the playoffs, Porzingis averaged 14.3 points, 7.3 rebounds and 1.9 blocks per game and finished second in NBA Rookie of the Year voting, behind only Karl-Anthony Towns, then of the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Kristaps Porizingis was the greatest reason to believe the Knicks would finally emerge from their ugly descent into losing and dysfunction.
