Story summary

The New York Post's Stefan Bondy notes a significant change in the narrative around the Knicks at their training camp. Traditionally, coverage of the team has lacked recent success, but this year there is an expectation for defending champions, marking the first time Knicks reporters will be tasked with writing such phrases. Bondy hints at adapting his approach to cover the new reality facing the franchise, which includes experimenting with terminology that reflects the current status of a team aiming to defend its title rather than striving for improvement or rebuilding.
