For me it is Frank. I want to see how much he has developed offensively especially given KP's absence. We will need someone to fill that role and I hope that KP will play a bigger role this year.

The fact that there is more than one young, talented player before we even mention KP coming back, I’m just excited to see them all. I’d say I’m most curious to see frank. There is a very good aura around this kid. I think the Knicks and fans will be rewarded when all is said and done.

Mitch Robinson as I have no idea what we'll see. With Knox, I think he'll have an up and down, probably inefficient first year with some promising moments, but with Mitch I have no idea

I expect Frank to be incrementally better but not a revelation of sorts. THats really ok. It’s also over 82 games season so imporovement is not linear.
Robinson I expect to be a foul machine that will have to learn thru experience. Summer league is not the NBA.
Knox too will have rookie moments both good and bad. We have a fresh 20 year old and two 19 year olds. This is a very good thing but patience required!

Mario, THJ, and trey...

If the knick's are to move the needle and surprise most, it will be because of those 3 raising their level to borderline All star

Knox- because he was our first round pick.

Mitchell- It will be fun to see if he will turn out to be the steal of the draft.

Frank- because I want to see what he's been doing in the lab since SL. If he can use his added height, and bulk, to his advantage.

Burke- showed the ability to run an offense, and played respectable D. Trey is hungry, looking forward to seeing if he makes a case for a longer deal. Might make more sense than Irving or another high priced PG.

Lance- was getting rave reviews from coaches around the league a few years back, after his game took a big jump. Then he got hurt.

Longest tenured Knick, the kind of player you want mentoring a young team. Hope he can get his health and game back.

I think we all are eager to just see the team play and compete. We have a team of young players, and I want to see growth in all of them, especially Frank and Knox.

Mitchell Robinson. This is just me but I would love to have a real star at center. And it could make life for our forwards at least a little easier ……… GO NY GO...… GO KNICKS !

I'm most excited to watch him play too... I think we basically got a second first rounder by drafting him. If that's right then it's basically playing with house money

Excited not, but Curious about:

Dotson- Does he even rate.
Baker- can he shoot?
Mudiaye- Fulfill the promise?
Burke- does he cement a starting role?
Kornet and Hicks- Do they rotate in the game?
Vonleh- I expect him to play
Mario- Same.

in a best case scenario we have players that exceed and few spots and money for them next summer. They can be traded.
Its ok if we become a destination for players to reboot their career even if they move on. Shows progress and a culture that is desirable. There will be others to follow if true.

Easy victory against the undisciplined millenials. 😜
