No Knick came out of last season looking good. A few Knicks looked especially out-of-sorts adapting to the Triangle, including all three shooting guards, and after sending Tim Hardaway Jr. to the Hawks for Jerian Grant, all three of those shooting guards are now gone.
Hardaway could find a nice niche on an Atlanta team that can offer him a narrower role and vastly more talented, coherent teammates. There were some signs of growth last year in his all-around game, but they were mostly incremental, and the drop-off in his outside shooting was hard to watch at times.
