New York Knicks executive and former player Allan Houston discussed the importance of building a solid foundation in order to change the narrative surrounding the current-day Knicks and turn them into a winning organization like they once were when he was leading the team with his smooth jumpshot in the late nineties.
In an interview on ESPN radio, Houston emphasized the need to develop the team’s younger players, especially with free agency “different now” than it was when he was a player. He didn’t elaborate on what he meant by that, but based on his wording surrounding that comment, he seems to be suggesting that the team should be focused on building a young core that attracts talent to join them.
