I stand by my 50+ win total…. But I legit think next year this team earns its respect from the league.

Brunson might be the 1A star we been talking about. Fournier expiring, and them just using draft picks to try and hit on one more rookies with upside, that actually fits what the Knicks are looking for on and off the court.

I don’t know if you guys care about 2K ratings but the Knicks 2K 24 ratings are out

-Julius Randle rating is (87) with a Playmaking 3-Level Scorer build (Plus 3 from last year)

-Jalen Brunson rating is (87) with a offensive force build (Plus 5 from last year)

-RJ Barrett rating is (82) with a two-way slashing point forward build (minus 2 from last year

-Immanuel Quickley is (82) with a offensive force build (Plus 4 from last year)

-Mitchell Robinson is (80) with a defensive anchor build (Plus 2 from last year)

The rest are here
2K's rating are very ass overall. I dunno how tiers work but how are we a tier 3 team? That would place us at the bottom of the league despite making it to the second round? The Nuggets are tier 2 despite winning the Championship? Some players in the top 50 or so are getting very overrated too.

I think the big thing is that question marks are forming for the teams ahead of them.
The Heat haven't landed Lillard yet, so at the moment they're down two guys that made contributions to their post season run.
The C's changed Smart for KP which could work out nicely, but also could backfire if KP's injuries come back.
The Sixers have the Harden drama to figure out.
The Bucks are still the Bucks, but a year older with 3/4's of their top 4 players on the wrong side of 30.

The Cavs probably got better. But everyone else has a chance for regression. Though, to be fair, we might be in that spot too since injury luck was on our side last season.

It’s weird to see the rest of the league in the Drama that normally affects the Knicks. It wasn’t An amazing off-season but everything is at least not horrible.
