This season, Draymond Green has been Suspended from the the NBA. New York’s unwavering defense strategy has turned into a trademark. Being one of the NBA’s highest scoring guards and the head of the snake, Jalen Brunson has demonstrated his abilities.

Despite not having their second-best player in the rotation, the Knicks have relished their deep playoff run. Due to a shoulder issue, Julius Randle was sidelined before the postseason started.

In addition, Mitchell Robinson has not performed at his peak following a season marred by injuries. Therefore, the talent on Thibodeau’s team’s roster is demonstrated by their success thus far.

The Knicks will have one of the best squads in the Eastern Conference if they can maintain their progress throughout the summer and avoid any serious injuries in the upcoming campaign. They might even come in second place, behind the Boston Celtics.

New York’s chances of making it to the conference finals are not likely to be accidental. It might have a difficult road ahead of it, though, if the Milwaukee Bucks and Philadelphia 76ers both get better over the summer.

Nevertheless, Green could have to retract this statement. The Knicks have spent several years preparing for this. It’s improbable that they will release the rope now that they understand.
