Patrick was always more effective when he was slimmer and lighter… look at how athletic he was and his conditioning become poorer and poorer and as he got heavier and slower … this 1992 team was probably their best chance at contending against Chicago. 1997 team also honorable mention too. This was a bitter sweet series as this was the twilight of a proud dynasty in Detroit and NY emulated them but lacked the mental toughness to get to that next level.

Actually conditioning wasn’t the problem. Conditioning was actually pretty good when Pat Riley was the coach of the Knicks, It required to lose a certain amount of body fat. When Riley unfortunately left the Knicks because Dave Checketts the President of the garden at the time who was too busy playing with himself and didn’t give Pat Riley the peace of the pie that’s when Patrick Ewing got a little bit chubby but still was effective.

@@danielgrassi4343 I was a diehard Knicks fan of the 90s and yes, Checketts pissed me off with not giving Pat more control over personnel but Riley got the most outta his players and Pat was still a great center but if he had remain in the shape he was in 1992 then he would have remained in the upper echelon of centers, take the 1992 Ewing he would evenly match Hakeem in the 1994 Finals and may have been the difference.
