I can't even get excited because Memphis probably will find a way to screw this up.

I've been wondering where he'll land in BAF. Him and Bazley.

Lecque is mad low key on this board. I am the only one who speaks of him lol. Prob late 2nd round or undrafted. I see someone taking Bazley in the late 1st round tho. Hit me up if you ever need advice and stuff.

Knicks need a backup plan if RJ goes at #2.

The Grizzlies selecting Ja @ #2 is not 100%. I like in the city, and they are warming up to RJ.

Or is it just really simple, and the Knicks keep Ja at #3? Meant it was meant to be when they get Durant + Kawhi. There was no room for RJ anyway. 8-)

I've scouted both of those guys about as much as you can. Lecque could be a real steal or hot garbage that turns into a role player in 4 years. Bazley did well at the combine, and probably will go late 1st. I've narrowed it down to about 6 guys that I'm looking at for pick 33.

Yeah, this concerns me now. What is to stop Memphis from selecting RJ at #2 with the expectation of a trade to squeeze an asset from us for Morant? :(

Memphis has their meeting with Ja yesterday so I’d think they have their mind set on him. Especially with RJ not meeting with anyone else. 1-3 should be set already

An awfully big risk for Memphis because we could just take Ja and then Memphis is "stuck" with a guy they didn't want on the chance we would make a deal with them. RJ said he wants to be drafted by us, we didn't say we want to draft RJ. All indications still look like Memphis is locked in on Ja.

I love RJ and he’s my guy but if Memphis does take him Ja still has considerable value to the teams right below us. And hell, he might have more value in this AD pursuit. I hope RJ Barrett is a Knick. But we have to be quick and decisive with plans A-Z through this process.

If Memphis take him we fleece somebody for JA or Pick Ja and move on. Plain and simple.

The way the Knicks and RJ are so hot and heavy for each other it's starting to remind me that's the way it went down with Curry.

Not about how good I think he will be but just the way it seems like he is not even going to be there at 3 for the Knicks to take.

I've been watching a bunch of video of some other players that could be taken later and I really do think there is some good talent to be had all through this draft.

Did anyone question him on how this franchise never re-signs their draft picks after 2 years?
