While Stiller can wax poetic about his favorite NBA team, he is realistic. As the regular season draws to an end, Stiller stood by his team , claiming he is "not turning on" the Knicks.
"I'm not turning on [the] Knicks. Let's put some respect on our guys who have gotten us this far. Whatever internal struggles exist, exist. Now it's time to ride with our guys to make it happen because we all want the same thing," Stiller said. "Been here before. Playoffs haven't even started. Positive energy.
"Love watching this team where they are in sync and won't get into berating them when it's time to lock in and get it done," he continued.
