There are few players in New York Knicks history who did more for the franchise than Bernard King. Overlooked by some due to the brevity of his tenure, King led New York to relevance and glory during the era that followed the championship teams of the 1970s.
That alone makes King an authority on what it means to be a great player in the NBA, let alone the unforgiving domain that is New York City.
Knowing this to be true, it’s hard not to put stock into what King has to say about the current state of the Knicks.
