The goal for an NBA franchise every year is to at least make the playoffs and so do the Knicks. It has been eight years and counting since the Knicks last playoff appearance. Going into the season the Knicks hope to make the playoffs, and are looking forward to breaking this current streak.
First comes the NBA Draft on June 25th, and the Knicks need to pick a player who fits well in there system and who is willing to come in NY. They are looking at Syracuse's Johnny Flynn and Davidson's Stephen Curry. The Knicks cant go wrong with either player in my opinion, both of them can contribute at an NBA level right now.
Next is the Free Agency period where money is thrown to players and players are over valued. The Knicks need to do the opposite of what I just stated and dont spend a lot of money. The Knicks are now under the cap finally and now need to stay under the cap for the 2010 free agency class but that is a whole different story. The Knicks have two restricted free agents that they definitely need to address Nate Robinson and David Lee. To make a long story short don't over pay for Nate Robinson and retain David Lee if possible.
Before the season the Knicks need to work hard training camp and hope that overlaps into the season. Hopefully Danillo Gallanari will be healthy so they can fully utilize him.
Hard work always pays of and the coach always preaches that.
Predictions:
Playoffs for the first time in eight years(hopefully)
David Lee becomes an all star and fully develops his game
Players from a better relationship and the Knicks go through the season without no drama!!
HARD WORK HARD WORK HARD WORK!!!!
