Chauncey Billups thinks the Knicks, if completely healthy, would have won their first-round series against Boston.

He also wants a chance to come back to New York next season and give it another shot.

Billups is due to make $14.2 million next season in the final year of his contract. But only $3.7 million of that is guaranteed so the Knicks could buy him out for that sum after the season and make him a free agent.

“I would love the opportunity to really try it up with these guys,” Billups said. “Not like play 30 games after a trade, like really have a season. Have an opportunity to really get a fair shake with these guys. I would love to.”
