But he sure looked good as that #2 option on a championship caliber team. They Knicks know that part too. Which is why they tried to get Donovan Mitchell after they got Brunson.
I wish they had gotten Mitchell. It would have stunted Brunson (just like Luka did) and made the defense worse. I think they were going to give up some of their quality role players as well. They would have spent a lot of assets and I don't think the team would have been any better. Unfortunately Mitchell is a much better fit on the Cavs.
