Still holding out hope that we could land Kay Felder. Dude is legit.

I'd love to walk away from this draft with Felder and Whitehead. Have them battle it out.

The Knicks will probably end up with a mid-second round pick that Phil can buy.

Yeah it was so obvious Ford was trying to troll us, I think he knows how much Knick fans loathe his dumb ass.

I have 10 inches on him and he'd still kick my ass :lol: He's legit, though. He's a MUCH better playmaker than Nate ever was. Big fan of Felder.

Don't care. He dominated in college, got whatever he wanted at the combine scrimmages, and basically plays exactly like Isaiah Thomas.

Felder and Porzingis/Lopez PnR is deadly.

Would love for the Knicks to somehow get in the first round, but not expecting it. If we are lucky we’ll pick up a mid 2nd rounder for cheap.

But you never know...Phil pulled that Timmy for a first trade last year.

To look at it another way, if not for the Bargnani trade, we might not and probably would not have KP. But yea Ford is a piece of crap.

Rumors are cool and all, but this is just throwing something at a wall and hoping it sticks.

Phil Jackson is one of the most secretive GM's in the league. How would this random account know what the Knicks are doing?

It's nice to hope, but you're right. Every year whether draft or trade deadline there are random Twitter accounts trying to get followers.

Long video but, if you're a basketball geek like myself you'll enjoy it. We worked out Isaiah leading up to the draft and he could be a nice pickup for an NBA team looking for a ready-made shooter off the bench. 6'7'-6'8" with a high release and pinpoint accuracy. Question is who he guards at the next level and can he rebound effectively. Great kid though. Hope he gets his shot with us or another team.

Also this is of note. Would like to see us be a 3rd team lubricant in one of these deals to get rid of Calderon or even take a small asset back by dealing O"Quinn.

If deals are in place without giving up assets, why wouldn't Phil just make them. Don't believe this.

This ain't really a rumor, it's just logic. We're getting a pick. We just don't know where yet.
