Phil Jackson and Carmelo Anthony believe the New York Knicks have the best frontcourt in the Eastern Conference.

Anthony plays alongside Kristaps Porzingis and Robin Lopez.

"In our meeting at the end of the season, Carmelo said, ‘really (the Knicks' situation is) not that bad. I think we have the best front line guys in the game, in the Eastern Conference, in Robin (Lopez), myself and Kristaps (Porzingis),'" Jackson said. "And I have to agree with him. Yes, those are three real potent figures.... So we have some positions to fill , but not a lot. Not that many."

The Knicks previously believed they had the best frontcourt in the East with Anthony, Tyson Chandler and Amar'e Stoudemire.

New York will search for upgrades in the backcourt this offseason.
