The New York Knicks entered free agency with hopes higher than Cheech and Chong’s. Now that Kevin Durant is a Brooklyn Net, some fans’ hopes are lower than Hermes Conrad doing the limbo.
Look, I get it. This year’s free agency season was a disappointment overall. None of the biggest names available signed with New York and both Durant and Kyrie Irving joined the crosstown rival Nets. That added insult to injury. Despite that, the Knicks are already better on paper than the squad which won 17 games last year.
This means the philosophy going into next season should be about exceeding expectations.
