Bridges -- or some other current college star -- could turn out to be the Knicks' Christmas present next June.
One day, someone will do a 30 For 30 on Tom Izzo, Michigan State, why Miles Bridges stayed another year and the scandal that almost made it to the open press beyond the one that nearly crushed everyone there.
Whenever a player engages in open "virtue signaling" ( discussing their morality to improve their social standing/social perception in a group hierarchy) , it's generally a prepackaged PR design and functionally an open red flag. Tiki Barber going on and on in public about his fidelity, then getting dumped by his wife while she was in labor with his child, while he had a blond intern sidepiece, yeah, no one could see that coming a mile away.
From a talent standpoint, he's an interesting prospect
From a true character standpoint, not just the media projection, maybe the Knicks would be better off going in a different direction.
Erm so you are saying that Bridges stayed because he foresaw an incoming PR disaster with the recent scandals?
