We also face the Kings twice in the near future. I think it's time Yabu pays back some of that free money he's been given his entire career and bounces Fox for a nice 2 week ankle sprain.

We finally got a true batman and robin going on if we draft that french kid. He's the real deal man. I was skeptical at first but seeing how this kid plays and only 18 I'm **** sold. 2 prospects with young core. That's rare in this knicks organization. Finally doing this sheit right.

8. New York — Jayson Tatum, SF, Duke. Someone is going to slip out of the group of four or five top prospects, and the bet here is Tatum, a good shooter with a high basketball IQ and a smooth offensive game. He happens to play the same position as a current Knick with a smooth offensive game, but that does not matter. If he is around at eight, the Knicks should grab him and figure out their Carmelo Anthony situation later. If Tatum is not here, Malik Monk figures to get serious consideration.

Yeah, it's looking a lot like Tatum might fall.

his handles looked on point today? :o



Yeah. Frank def can shake a player if he wants to. I was not sure until tonight where he was at with it. But if this the handle he has right now...he def can shake cats in america and penetrate when he works on it more. He had a few times where the 1-2 was VERY tight.

They are prob judging it by the stakes of the play. Im pretty sure Frank has never played in stakes like this in the pros. So it is impressive even if he scored more points etc before.

Hopefully he can pull off a move like that a little quicker in the NBA.

Nah I seen him do there plenty of times. But it looks tighter now and he playing against better defenders. So thats what I mean by my statement. Have not seen the wiggle with SIG that I saw in U18.

I agree with that, but still his best game this season was when he played in Champions League play-off game, they lost first game by 19 points and Frank took over the game 2 at home and almost they made a comeback, but at the end, they lost.

We also face the Kings twice in the near future. I think it's time Yabu pays back some of that free money he's been given his entire career and bounces Fox for a nice 2 week ankle sprain.
