Guy from The Strickland actually posted this before the draft. Well done.

Getting a 18, almost 19 year old to change their body with professional conditioning should not be a huge issue. One year max, Keels can slim down to 200 lb with a 6 pack. I bet this dude is really bear mode underneath his blubber.

And if he can't keep his weight down, not much is lost with this late of a pick.

More non-Knicks and/or pre-draft reaction to Keels.

I'm not too excited about this pick, nor am I totally disappointed, either... you could say I'm pretty even... keel'ed...

hes more like desmond bane than haliburton. haliburton is an actual playmaker and point guard. this guy is a crafty combo guard.

haliburton was playing off ball because the kings are dumb and think fox is their guy.

I like his talent. A few things stick out.

He uses his upper body really well to fend off defenders while driving and scoring. He's like a fast tank.

He reminds me of Kyle Lowry.

Not at all excited by this pick. I would have preferred that they trade it instead of taking a player with such limited physical upside.

He can be the steal of the draft. If he spent another year in school he'd probably be a lottery pick.

I'm not even mad about what we did with # 11.....we were never getting Ivey to begin with. What bothers me most is that we did all that to try and sign.....BRUNSON?!?!.

Keels will probably better than Brunson in 2-3 years.

I like Keels

But there's a reason he was available at 42

Solid pick, but I doubt he ever really cracks the rotation. Thibs ain't playing no 18 year old 2nd round draft pick.
BaF Lakers:

Darius Garland/Cory Joseph
Klay Thompson/Shaedon Sharpe
Keldon Johnson/De'Andre Hunter
Evan Mobley/Tari Eason

I take my cousin into the city every year to watch a game

Might go to some G League games instead. Cheaper, better product, we can drive instead of taking the train, etc.
