Spencer Dinwiddie makes bold claim about potential Nets-Knicks rivalry

The New York Knicks have been linked to big offseason moves, with chatter of Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving potentially being on their way to the Big Apple. But there’s another team in the city that made the playoffs this season.

In fact, Brooklyn Nets guard Spencer Dinwiddie is so confident in his team’s staying power, he thinks he’d still be playing on the best basketball team in New York even if the Knicks make those big moves.

IF that happens… we’d still be the best team in NY https://t.co/XftD0J94lN

The Nets know the media reality of New York and how the Knicks will always grab the bulk of the attention. Their players have a bit of a chip on their shoulder, though, and seem intent to show that this year’s successes are only the beginning regardless of what the Knicks are up to.
