New York Knicks taking massive risk, preparing for 2021 offseason

Some might call what New York Knicks president Leon Rose is doing a massive risk, and others might say the conclusion of the 2020 offseason was inevitable.

The Knicks didn’t manage to land a single max contract or star player, being passed on by Fred VanVleet and missing out on point guard Chris Paul. Rose was confident he could lure a big name to The Garden, but the alternative has turned more into a rebuilding state than anything else.

New coach Tom Thibodeau has a tall task ahead of him, piecing together a rotation of starting quality players.
