Among the many ambitious goals Mike Brown has set for the New York Knicks this season, one is loftier than them all. And achieving it requires him to start Deuce McBride.
Mitchell Robinson seems like the favorite, at this point, to begin games alongside Jalen Brunson, Mikal Bridges, OG Anunoby, and Karl-Anthony Towns. This jibes with Brown’s desire for rim protection. It does not jell with his wanting to get up a monster number of threes.
“I mean if we get 40 [threes], I’m cool with it,” he told reporters, via Kristian Winfield of the New York Daily News.
