The following article is from new contributor Brian Blewis (@blames_dolan on Twitter).

Before this season, the majority of Knicks fans would have been very satisfied to hear that they realistically will have a chance of drafting Cole Anthony in the 2021 NBA Draft (besides the few who expected to make the playoffs).
