Patrick Ewing’s NBA Legends profile starts with just one word: “Warrior.” There may not be a more apt descriptor of who Ewing was during his time with the NY Knicks.
Is Patrick Ewing the greatest player in New York Knicks franchise history? There are arguments to be made for Willis Reed and Walt Frazier, but as the Knicks leader in most major statistical categories and a top 25 All-Time scorer, it’s hard to argue against him despite Ewing never winning the big one.
