By The Numbers: How well do you know the 2015 Knicks?

This exam measures your statistical knowledge of the 2015 New York Knicks. There are 25 questions, each worth 4 points. The answers can be found after the test, along with some arbitrary labels you're free to discard or cling to. Whatever gets you through the night.

This is not an open-book test. So no cheating by looking up the Knicks' team stats at basketball-reference.com. You will need a #2 pencil (2 as in Langston Galloway...not Oswald Cobblepot). You will need a 2-guard, too, but in the spirit of the Knicks, you will not find one.

NOTE: Ricky Ledo does not factor in to any of these questions. You will not be tested on him today, though he may appear on your end-of-semester exam.

WHAT YOUR GRADE SAYS ABOUT YOU

-- 0-2 wrong? You're the '70 & '73 Knicks!
Your basketball IQ will go down as the stuff of legends. Watching your mind at work is like watching 5 players combining to be more than the sum of their parts. There's an excellent chance you have a future in politics. Or fashion. Or peyote (which you don't smoke). Wherever you go, you shall find success.

-- 3-5 wrong? You're the '94 Knicks!
OK, so you didn't quite reach the top of the mountain. But coming as close as you did to the pinnacle's still a tremendous accomplishment, especially for someone who was balling in Turkey/bagging groceries not too long ago. Your journey will be lauded and re-told for years. You are a mensch.

-- 6-8 wrong? You're the '90 Knicks!
Your effort won't exactly inspire legends. But the odds were against you from the start. And even though the ultimate prize was denied you, the consolation prizes are pretty tasty.

-- 9-10 wrong? You're the 2014 Knicks!
Hard to watch, but there were glimmers of hope throughout. Hope is a good thing. Maybe the best thing. Better than this.

-- 11-13 wrong? You're this guy!
I can't...I can't even..........

-- 14+ wrong? You're the 2015 Knicks!
Good God, you're rough to watch. But we still love you. For some reason. Better days are coming. Because nothing can be worse than this. Except this.
