People don’t like my Knox/Mitchell comparison to Houston/Camby but we have been the laughing stock of the league so everyone needs to chill and give these young boys a chance! This is the best situation we have been in for a long the me! And that’s a fact!

This guy was missed in the 1999 NBA Finals. His presence down low certainly would have made a difference. #1999knicks #knicks #patrickewing #NewYorkForever
