Hopefully move up to grab Doncic. Outside of him, ?s about every other player and think this draft is overrated.

The better players to draft are terrible fits for Knicks. Almost better if they stick @ 9 and forced to draft a wing player instead temptation of the taller guys who have bust written all over him (sans Bagley).

Even besides that, not a fan. As I said above, I see a KVH type. Volume scorer, but a turnstile on defense and offering little help elsewhere.

If played at the 3, defense is an issue. But Porter's skill set seems to be a good fit at the 4 in today's game. He'd instantly be one of the quicker 4's capable of beating his guy off the dribble, as well as having the lateral quickness to defend

Either position defense is an issue. He doesn’t have the ability / IQ and IIRC he’s not particularly long.

The Magic are bringing a Lil’ Penny doll to give them good luck at the NBA Draft lottery

2X as likely we select 10 (12.2%) than we select top 3 (6.1%), so I'm bracing for the worst

Honestly, I'm expecting that, and I'm prepared for it

Won't be terribly disappointed, there's always talent available at 10, just have to trust in Pills to find it

Worst would be we fall to 12th, which I believe only has like a .1% chance of happening

Wouldn't even be mad at that point. Just impressed

I'm bracing myself for when we defy the realm of possibility and drop out of the lottery completely

I agree with the Keith Van Horn comp

KVH & Antwan Jamison. I could be dead wrong, but he could be a Jamison type.

--Mags

Kuz is way closer to Jamison than MPJr, IMO. KVH has been my rough comparison for MPJr for a little while now, back injuries and everything else included.

I disagree. But, either way he's at the bottom of my Draft list with Carter. I'd still root for him if he's picked for us tho. :lol:

"Perry quickly made his mark on the Kings, as he led them to their most successful draft night in years. Sacramento selected highly regarded Kentucky point guard De’Aaron Fox with the fifth pick. In need of more talent, the Kings traded the 10th pick acquired in the DeMarcus Cousins trade to the Portland Trail Blazers for the 15th and 20th selections. The Kings used those two picks to select North Carolina forward Justin Jackson and Duke center Harry Giles, a former No. 1 recruit who was recovering from surgeries on both knees. Perry also spearheaded the signings of veteran free agents Vince Carter, Zach Randolph and George Hill."
