Bird would have won 4 rings with that team, in this weak ass era of basketball.

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.
They're returning a 24ppg scorer.
My biggest issue with the Knicks is chemistry. A good problem to have but they almost have too many guys who are scorers now especially with PG likely re-signing so you wonder about chemistry. There's a lot of chefs in that kitchen now.
He's a high usage 24ppg scorer, I feel Randle needs a lot of usage to be effective. Adding Mikal Bridges dilutes that usage a bit to the point where I don't think he fits because his game doesn't fill a role of spot up shooter or slasher.
I think he'll be minimised to the point where he doesn't actually help New York and he's just there.
Julius is 1B to Brunson’s 1A. He usually gets going in early in the game as the team runs the offense through him. Having shooters all around for C&S opportunities will only open up his game even more since now teams can’t look to double team him all game. Especially since he’s unstoppable going into the paint.

Porzingis loves to be injured, so there is a chance

Why?
I didn't think he would come back, he did. Got a oodles of money. But he's back.
So congrats.
Should solidify a top 4 place in the East if everyone stays healthy.

Especially if they offer him more money. Don't assume its locked up.
If I'm the Sixers I'd love to take OG away from the Knicks.
how can the sixers offer og more money when the knicks can offer the most?
Cause Knicks might not give him a max lol. Not that complicated.
you’re right , they didn’t give him the max
because they didn’t need too
LOL Y U MAD THO?

Only on RGM is it not a rivalry. IRL, I’m always trash talking with some Celtics fans I know
