Van Gundy On the Knicks
In town as part of the broadcasting crew for tonights Knicks-Cavs game, ex-coach Jeff Van Gundy offered his candid opinion of the Knicks team and its management.
Via the NY Post:
On the team’s current roster:
“They have a lot of guys whose futures are up in the air. They have average talent for the NBA. Sometimes when they don’t do well, people say, ‘What’s wrong?’ What’s wrong is they have average talent.”
“They all could take a strong look at what they can do to up their level of play through increased level of preparation and determination.”
On Donnie Walsh and the job he has done thus far into his tenure:
“I don’t know how you can knock anything he’s done.”
“They’ve rid themselves of long-term contracts, trying like heck to get out of the rut of mediocrity. You win championships by having star players. I don’t know if it will work, but the strategy is sound.”
