Knicks coach David Fizdale said he is considering making changes to the team's lineup after Wednesday's lopsided loss to the Miami Heat.

"Nothing's in stone," said Fizdale, per MSG. The Knicks' coach went on to say he will "re-evaluate" the lineup "and maybe make some tweaks."

Frank Ntilikina, Lance Thomas, Trey Burke, Enes Kanter, and Tim Hardaway Jr. have started all five of the team's first five games. But after winning the season opener, the squad has lost four straight games.

Fizdale hinted at possible changes on Tuesday when he said he would consider making changes after he has a chance to evaluate film and assess the team's first five games, per the New York Post.

However, he said he wanted to do so in such a way that wouldn't be detrimental to the second unit.
