Let’s not forget the formula, or key ingredient for “The Process” is:
PAIN!
They accepted it. Used it to their advantage.
Knicks ownership feared it and thus procrastinated.
I feel this is the first year we allowed it. Once KP went down the team went young and developed. You need Vets to do that effectively. We were the second worst team since mid December?
No trades to bolster that decline. Knicks let it happen.
Front office does to believe the coach to be the man going forward. So we get a reboot there.
Phil was the bridge. Knicks crossed and hopefully the old way won’t infect the future as it has in the past.
Philly WON 10 GAMES 2 YRS AGO,worst record in the league and are now in the 2nd round of the playoffs
We won 17 games 3 yrs ago, and still suck with another yr of sucking on the horizon. We have no process
Hinkie was hired in May 2013
The Knicks haven’t made the playoffs since 2013.
Point being Hinkie's process started in 2013 not 2 yrs ago like the picture knicks1248 us painting. Hinkie's process also wasn't perfectly sound and he had more assets like Jrue Holiday and Andre Igoudala to trade away to get multiple lotto picks type value back which he did whiff on.
Knicks have brought in Burke, Frank, Dotson, Williams, Hicks, Kornet, Mudiay and have a 22 yr old all star unicorn. Also 24 yr old Kanter. And all their picks going forward. The Knicks G-league coach won coach of the year and almost all of our G-League players got called up. Meaning we have a strong development process currently.
Philly landed Simmons with the #1, Utah made the playoffs and traded up to land Mitchell #14. Now they are both in the running for ROY and have bright futures with 2 different processes. Gobert was a late first rounder to compare to Embild being a top 5 pick.
Knicks aren't going to make up for the past 5 yrs that not going to be realistic. They need to continue down the path of grinding it out and turning over every stone and targeting 2 way players with high potential. And a strong developmental system like they have formed in the G-league. Clear up contracts like Noah for 2019.
That all started this season.
