Re: are the Knicks LEGIT contenders?!
It depends on what they do with OG. If they retain them, they matchup insanely well against Boston and Milwaukee, especially if they manage to get rid of Randle. If they don’t keep OG, they’re still a scary good team.

Re: are the Knicks LEGIT contenders?!
I don't believe so at the moment.
Defensively they'll be great but I don't rate Bridges offense enough to think that they still don't live and die by Brunson.

Good matchup with Boston. Building shooting and switchable wing defenders.

Defense wins championship and if they keep OG and are healthy they pose some big problems in the East matchup wise

Easily the 2nd best team in the EAST.
But with Randle, it's hard to say really if they can go all the way with his post-season woes

Re: are the Knicks LEGIT contenders?!
They were already legit this year, so yes. I think they can give Boston a lot of problems if they can keep OG and have Mikael now.

They've got talent and some great competitors. I don't think they're legit contenders but they could take Boston 6 maybe 7 if the balls bounce right.

Have them as second best team in the east if they get OG back. They need to lock in the C spot but the Bucks with an aging core and Doc just puts no fear in anyone. Embiid has to stay healthy and the Pacers need one more big move before I have them jump up.

That was a lot to pay for Bridges, but the Knicks undoubtedly got better in the short term.

OG's agent is the happiest guy on the planet right now.. he didn't do **** and his guy might have just got a max contract
