Fan of the New York Knicks, at this point, are essentially going crazy right now as their team heads into the 2017 NBA Draft and free agency period. Carmelo Anthony is seemingly on his way out, the team reportedly wants to re-sign Derrick Rose and they are shopping young star Kristaps Porzingis. So many think that the Knicks team president Phil Jackson is absolutely losing his mind. But if you ask Phil, he thinks he’s doing just fine.
Jackson spoke to Al Trautwig of MSG Networks about the Knicks plans going into the draft, free agency and beyond.
Well, I think we know what we’re doing. That’s all I can say to them. Although it’s not been apparent in our record the last couple years, we’ve grown from within.
We’ve got young players that are on the move up. It takes time to rebuild with youth. And I think they have confidence in the fact that we’re going to have good players, we’re going to have a good team and we’re going to be on the court competitive.
