Tempering expectations for the 2019-20 New York Knicks

The New York Knicks improved by leaps and bounds in the summer. That’s not a significant accomplishment in itself. The Knicks were the worst team in the NBA in 2018-19 and tied a franchise-worst record of 17-65.

They were almost unwatchable for large swaths of the season, but the promise of young players like Mitchell Robinson, Kevin Knox, and Allonzo Trier was the best reason to stay tuned to MSG.

Next year, the prospect of actually winning games should keep the attention of viewers. The young players like Robinson, Knox, and Trier should all take a step forward in year two.
