Former NBA champion J.R. Smith expresses skepticism about the New York Knicks chances of winning a championship, citing their reliance on six-foot-two guard Jalen Brunson. Smith, who played for the Knicks, points out that NBA history shows small-guard-led teams struggle in the playoffs. He also raises concerns about potential tension between Brunson and big man Karl-Anthony Towns, whose production has slipped this season. Smith suggests that the teams success hinges on their ability to improve chemistry between their two main stars.
