This was a statement 11 months in the making. This was a declaration that started to take shape when the Knicks acquired Mikal Bridges — five first-rounders and all — from the Nets last June. This was one that rounded into form when Karl-Anthony Towns arrived in the middle of training camp, when the pair of stars joined three returning starters and gave the Knicks a lineup that, on paper, could compete with the Celtics.
