Knicks Post Game Live: Second Unit Energy Woes | Yabusele At The 5 Issues

Just days before the final roster cuts, the New York Knicks have been rocked by the sudden retirement of veteran guard Malcolm Brogdon. CP The Fanchise analyzes the shock report, admitting Brogdon looked "a step slow" in the preseason, but emphasizes the huge hole left in the rotation for a championship-contending team.Key Discussion Points:The Kolek Question: Tyler Kolek is now the lone natural point guard off the bench. Is he ready to handle the immense pressure and playmaking responsibilities?Playmaking Deficit: We debate how Deuce McBride, Jordan Clarkson, and Josh Hart will handle the increased facilitation duties, especially since Clarkson is driven by scoring.Free Agent Options: We quickly analyze the thin free agent market and name the top veterans the Knicks must call immediately: Victor Oladipo (roll the dice!), Delon Wright (veteran insurance), and Alec Burks.The Roster Battle: This retirement clarifies the competition for the final spots, but the need for a competent veteran playmaker remains critical for Mike Brown's system.
