The New York Knicks have received mixed reviews about the reported decision to hire Jeff Hornacek as head coach. A fair portion of fans are excited, while others toe the line between skeptical and pessimistic.
Regardless of which side of the tracks one falls on, one belief is mutual: Hornacek knows how to maximize the value of his point guards.
For the Knicks, that’s both promising and underwhelming news. Phil Jackson has the cap space to pursue a big-name free agent, but the current roster consists of two point guards who are generally unproven: Jerian Grant and Tony Wroten.
