They had a discussion on "Wake up" about wether or not the Knicks will make the playoffs. While no one was enthusiastically predicting that it will happen. Some like Rose left the door open. Barrett would have to be the real deal. Also pointed out the depth now with vets. They pointed out that last season was about losing as opposed to next season.
Not saying its likely, but if we dont get bit too hard by the injury bug. It doesnt end up being like the 2010 season where most of the vets we got retired during or after the season was over. The team has gelled by the All-Star break, we might at least be able to make a credible run.
Even if we just missed the playoffs, that still would be a step in the right direction. Some fans believe the Knicks can skip steps and build a contender. Go from cellar dwellar to champs in one big leap. Rarely works out that way. Years of prep work to take advantage of an opportunity is usually required.
