As countless trade rumors and ideas continue to have the New York Knicks targeting point-of-attack defense, Deuce McBride has something he’d like the front office to know: This team already has a premier pest at the point of attack.
“I know I can be one of the best point-of-attack defenders in the NBA,” the 25-year-old said after the Knicks’ win over the Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday, per the New York Post’s Jared Schwartz.
Relative to who New York has on its roster, McBride’s defense is irreplaceable. It’s why Mike Brown (finally) gave him another crack at starting.
