New York Knicks 2026/27 NBA Season Preview: The Champs Are Looking To Repeat

Can the New York Knicks defend their NBA title after swapping Mitchell Robinson for Andre Drummond? Josh Lloyd and Gavin Schall break down the biggest questions facing the Knicks, including Mike Brown’s rotation, the loss of Robinson’s elite rim protection, and whether this roster can still hold up in a stacked Eastern Conference. With Jalen Brunson, OG Anunoby, and Karl-Anthony Towns leading the way, the Knicks enter the season with championship expectations and plenty of pressure. This Knicks podcast discussion also covers Mikal Bridges’ impact, OG Anunoby’s All-NBA upside, the need for a reliable backup center, and how rest management could affect New York’s playoff seeding. Are the Knicks stable enough to stay in the NBA title race, or will internal development and trade rumors define their season?   Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
