He New York Knicks They are a top team after making three successful trades in the last 12 months.

After acquiring OG Anunoby, Mikal Bridges and Karl-Anthony Towns, the Knicks have sacrificed much of their depth to ensure the right pieces are in the starting lineup alongside Jalen Brunson.

However, due to these agreements, the Knicks are missing in the second unit.

“It depends on what you define as depth. I think their fourth and fifth guys are great, but short of that, we’re asking a lot of Deuce McBride right now.” NBA analyst Kirk Goldsberry said h/t Posting and Toasting. “Once Mitchell Robinson comes back, I think they’ll be relatively deep. But I mentioned this because you said there’s Boston and OKC, and I think that’s what it is. And when you look at the depth, it’s those guys by far.”

He Knicks They are led by Tom Thibodeau, who probably won’t have too deep of a rotation come the playoffs. However, depth is very important during the regular season and, as we saw last season, it could be important in the playoffs as well.

If injuries strike again, the Knicks will need competent players to balance things out, but it remains to be seen how New York will add depth down the stretch.

While adding players like Cam Payne, Matt Ryan and Precious Achiuwa will help, it doesn’t compare to some of the other Eastern Conference contenders who are seriously fighting for a championship.

The Knicks will look to improve their depth and record in their next matchup against the Indiana Pacers. Tipoff is scheduled for tomorrow at 5 pm ET from Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
