Eh I think people hate too much, he was really good that series outside of a single blown lay up and while he played terribly on offense in 94 his defense was great. 4 blks and 1.3 steals with 13 rebounds is about as good as you can ask for. His team had a shot too even if he played below expectation.
I think I don’t give Ewing as much shit because the Knicks took so long to get good talent around him. He was 23 when he was drafted. Knicks finally put the talent around him at age 32 and 33, not exactly prime big man years. Too me it kinda makes sense how he came up short considering he was already older and hobbled by injuries during his deepest runs.
