The New York Knicks are firmly placed fifth on the NBA Eastern Conference table. With 4 wins and 5 losses, the Knicks are looking quite decent as of now. Trying to build a formidable squad this season, the Knicks gave its team a bright makeover. Acquiring the services of Karl-Anthony Towns and Jalen Brunson, the Knicks were supposed to be running away with the game.
Unfortunately, that did not happen. They have, until now, faced stiff resistance from the Eastern Conference team. However, despite their mediocre start, there are names that are heavily confident of the Knicks’ ability to turn things around in the future. One of the latest additions to the list is the former NBA star Stephon Marbury. He is of the opinion that it is just a matter of time before the Knicks come out of their shells and go on a rampage.
Speaking exclusively with TMZ Sports, Marbury opined, “I think we can win a championship with our team, but I do think that adding pieces is always something that helps.” With the rumors of Giannis Antetokounmpo being traded to New York going wild, Marbury did not directly speak on the subject. Instead, he said, “We’re a team that just now changed some guys from last year so we still trying to improve, we’re still trying to get better. So, we’ll welcome all top 75 players to come to New York as long as they can fit within the system.”

Surely, Stephon Marbury is putting all his faith in the Knicks. However, their recent outing against the Indiana Pacers did not reflect Marbury’s thoughts as well. Getting humbled 132-121 by the Pacers, it is now high time for the New York-based side to pull up their socks. Meanwhile, with the trade rumors going wild, there is one player who does not want to play for the Knicks.

Such a statement made the hoops fans go crazy. They opined that Edwards might be fancying a move to the Knicks. However, the reality was far from being true. Addressing the speculation, Edwards stated that he would never don the Knicks’ jersey. In a recent statement, the Timberwolves star said, “Y’all ain’t finna be mad at me when I have an off game… When I play bad, y’all are gonna be like, ‘Boo!’ 82 games, I ain’t gonna be good.” Thus, with significant noise being generated by the New York Knicks this season, it remains to be seen how the team will perform next.
