Im this is why I'm pissed about how knick fans showed up for fan voting. It is what it is my guys will get in. Love to see it tho we own the east coast
Again, one fanbase can't outnumber casual fan voting and disrespect from sports media.
Trae Young received the 2nd most votes for an East guard but the Hawks fanbase is small it was all casual fans who remember the Knicks playoff series.
Tyrese Maxey received mad praise from ESPN and is the sidekick to the MVP and he was name dropped on a Abbott Elementary often.
Haliburton received a lot of praise last season and had Reggie Miller hyping him up. Also I think Kpop played a role too don't ask how but I think it did.
Dame is Dame no explanation there.
Brunson had to deal with the Knickslost narrative and Kenny Smith downplaying him, Coach Becky downplaying him, the fake CP3 downplaying him, Mavs fans thinking the Knicks tampered to get him, and being a part of the "Mid 3". I can go on.
