Both the New York Knicks and Miles McBride want to stick together, paving the way for a possible contract extension soon.

Here are the questions that Knicks fans need answered early in this year's training camp.

The Knicks enter training camp with some questions about their rotation, bench, and ability to overcome a championship hangover.

It's time to give Jalen Brunson the respect he deserves.

Jalen Brunson should be viewed as a top-five, or even top-three player, by every metric NBA fans judge players, and Knicks fans should realize that.

The Knicks finally have a future first-round pick to trade, plus some young players who could appeal to other teams.

As the Knicks search for a third center in free agency, they should be looking at targets who can help in the short-term and long-term.

The Knicks are now deep in the backcourt, with players on the roster who can mimic what Miles "Deuce" McBride brings to the court.

The Knicks have a few things to figure out.

The Knicks still need to find another center and sort out future contracts for some key players.

The Knicks used free agency to mostly keep their championship squad together, making a bet that they will still be the best team in the East.

The Knicks' free agency moves have all been centered on retaining their championship bench while staying below the second apron.

The Knicks' remaining moves this offseason could set them up to improve their championship odds and make trades down the line.

The Knicks have some serious work to do to add centers to their roster after losing both Mitchell Robinson and Ariel Hukporti in free agency.

The possibility of a reunion now seems unlikely.

Tim Hardaway Jr. had been floated as a Landry Shamet replacement for the Knicks, but he may have better offers in free agency.
