If we got something something back extra nice in addition to no. 14. What would you expect back? Donn't the Celtics have a lot of extra picks? Or would you ask for a player?
I'd want Romeo Langford & 14 and 26.... and I wouldn't cry to much about #26 but Romeo + Lewis is not bad at all. Romeo showed potential in limited action and is young.

Not sure he's particularly skilled though.

I like Stewart but prioritize multi-positional players who can shoot. I'd take Woodard at 27 before Stewart
he can easily be a small ball center, making him a multi positional player.
outside is important but a good scoring threat inside opens up for more open threes.
his 77 ft% could give hope of him developing a mid range game.

Are you willing to commit to FVV for the next 4 years? At what price? If it's set up before the draft, then do you think it effects our draft strategy?

No sir, because I believe our guy could be Maxey.

Maxey? At 8?

Where do you see Maxey going?
Just one of those guys I believe will find it easier to score in the NBA and would be a nice fit for the Knicks. I can see him averaging 18 and 5 in the league.
- Relentless attacker w/ quick 1st step.
- Has range.
- Good team player.
- Can throw the lob.
- Good defender.

There is a chance he could slip to 8, so we should not dismiss the idea that he may be the player they select if the guards they have an interest in are not available. In this draft, I would not hold it against the Knicks if they stayed put and not give up any assets. With luck and a lot of skill, we could come away with one of the better players in this draft.
What scenario do you see Deni slipping to 8? I haven't seen one legitimate mock where this is even a possibility.

I have seen him as high as 2 and low as 7, the projections change every day. After the third pick, any of the projected top players could land from 4 to the end of the lottery. Staying where we are we could select any one of them who could turn out to be one of the top players in this year's draft. They could also turn out to be the biggest bust also, so I would not like to give up assets to move up.

Wonder would they swap picks with us JUST for taking Wiggins salary and they still could probably select Okongwu (who'd also save them money #8 vs #2). One could only hope.
FVV/Frank
Ant/Dots
Mitch/Stewart
RJ/Wiggins
Randle/Knox
And all of our future picks. 2020 has been a crazy crazy year. Anything can happen right? Lol

SelbyCobra wrote:With regards to Wiggins, I can't see any NBA team already picking in the top-10 taking him on merely to move up. That's a $95M commitment to an inefficient, ball-dominant player the Warriors actively do not want. You're not paying almost a hundred million to pick swap.
A deal for Wiggins at this point would only be palatable if it brings in the #2 pick while not sacrificing any high-value present-day draft capital. You're effectively looking to purchase the #2 overall pick in a top-weak draft for $95M in the right scenario. I'm not even sure it's worth it at that point - whomever you select would HAVE to hit BIG to make it even come close to making sense.
