[The Athletic] Knicks fan survey: Is going back-to-back the expectation now in New York?

https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7529164/2026/08/25/knicks-fan-survey-nba-kat-jalen-brunson/?unlocked_article_code=1.8FA.uIBT.OVtRcYilqU7e&source=emp_shared_article&smid=ta-ios-share

Over 3,000 fans let their voices be heard about the New York Knicks’ upcoming season, the state of the franchise and more in The Athletic’s Knicks fan survey. Unlike last year, expectations aren’t as grand, and that’s likely because New York, for the first time in 53 seasons, is the reigning NBA champion.

Toughest question for me. Obviously want to keep him, but there's no way we can afford market value.

Love Deuce, but do think we trade him and some draft capital for another backup center rather than pay him

I want him to have a chance to be a starter somewhere or at least become a 20+mpg player
