Are the Knicks betting on Grimes’ ceiling instead of Quickley’s floor? Who knows!? “One game at a time,” Quentin Grimes said after the Knicks lost their season-opening matchup against the Boston Celtics 108-104 inside Madison Square Garden on Wednesday. “You can’t look too far.” Grimes must be keeping it easy by going step by step, game by game with his approach to the season, but the...
