Former NBA sharpshooter Tim Legler sat down with the New York Post on Nov. 15, 2025 to evaluate the New York Knicks’ prospects under newly hired head coach Mike Brown.
Legler, now a prominent television analyst, characterized the upcoming campaign as “championship-or-bust” for a franchise seeking its first title since 1973. He discussed how Brown’s defensive pedigree could mesh with the roster’s existing talent and outlined the adjustments required for the Knicks to contend in the Eastern Conference.
The conversation also covered Legler’s own journeyman playing career, which spanned eight teams over 11 NBA seasons. The 56-year-old reflected on lessons learned while fighting for roster spots and how those experiences inform his analysis of today’s players.
The full interview delves into potential lineup changes, player development priorities and the pressure surrounding Madison Square Garden as the Knicks aim to end decades of championship drought.
