So, what’s next?
Is this question too broad? Not at all. This is the ultimate question that has been asked for years upon years by fans.
The New York Knicks have not drafted well. Barrett is a nice player but of course the Knicks missed out on Ja Morant by one pick. The disastrous selections of Kevin Knox and Frank Ntilikina do not even have to be explained.
It dates as far back to 2009 when the Golden State Warriors nabbed Steph Curry just one spot ahead of the Knicks, who ended up with Jordan Hill.
New York has swung and missed in free agency. Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving did not want to come. Fournier and Walker have not panned out. Sometimes, a team is just snake-bitten.

What’s next for the Knicks is to get some stability within the franchise but that seems impossible when the problems begin from the very top.
James Dolan has done nothing to make the Knicks competitive. General manager Scott Perry has been non-existent and there are questions about Thibodeau. This does not lead to a good product on the floor.

Teams need stars to win in today’s NBA. Until the New York Knicks find that necessary stability, they are going to be unable to acquire any. There is no allure of playing for the Knicks anymore. It is difficult to build back up but New York needs to find a way to bring that back and nail down a long-term plan of success.
