ORLANDO — NBA seasons are like dog years.
And nine with the same team is rare, especially in Adam Silver’s era of player empowerment/movement.
To put it in local perspective, the last Knick to play nine seasons with the franchise was Allan Houston — roughly 20 years ago — and he missed 94 of his last 164 games.
It translated to a run of 16 years and counting as a Knicks executive for Houston, a position with excellent job security, having survived several regime changes.

Donte DiVincenzo already has been back once to the Garden, jawing with the Knicks bench and needing to be separated from assistant coach Rick Brunson at the conclusion of a preseason game in October.
Sunday’s game in his native Ohio was “surreal” for star Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.
Since the Rangers’ conference final Game 6 elimination in Sunrise on June 1, general manager Chris Drury:
If you were brave enough to watch the Jets play the Jaguars on Sunday and you had the stomach to make it to the end of the game, you may have noticed something different about the game.
The Knicks’ pending visit to Minnesota obviously marks the return of Karl-Anthony Towns to Target Center, but it also will be the first time Julius Randle faces his former team following the blockbuster September trade with the Timberwolves.
RALEIGH, N.C. — The Islanders’ belief that they can turn the season around is running into the hard reality of what it looks like when they get out onto the ice.
The last time Clay Holmes started a major league game came at the end of the 2018 season, his rookie year with the Pirates.
