The problem is will we trade him if he posts numbers? I like Tim but Im not sure if he'll ever be good(smart) enough to be a number #2 guy on a contender.

Agreed, those are all considerations that have some potentially troubling outcomes. But nothing compares to him being a low-efficiency, trash numbers guy putting 16.9 PPG on one of the worst teams in the league. You can forget attracting any free agents and/or rooting for Knicks wins for at least the next 5 years.

If he's playing like he is now, and you've got intriguing guys like Mitch/Knox/Trier/Frank already on the roster along with cap space, I think there's at least a visible/navigable path to becoming a "good team".

Not gonna cry about this one. I want one of the Duke big 3 just as much as anyone but we faced the Hawks tonight. Perspective. Schedule is only gonna get tougher and tougher. Enjoy this one. There will be plenty of L's to rejoice about soon. We'll be hitting our annual swoon in no time.

Nah. We were promised the playoffs. This is one step closer to that 8th spot the city was promised.

On a positive note. Frank wasn't scared to pull the trigger on a clutch 3 and he swished it.

Trier shook a n*gga to the floor and hit the step-back on him. I better see that on ESPN tonight.

High lottery not all it’s cracked up to be — we could end up with someone like T. Young.

Frank just violated Young let’s be honest. Hopefully he’s back. He played Angry on defense.

But if we get Tommy version and it leads to this...

“If you’re coming up with a comparison, you’re making it up,” Bilas said. “There’s never been anyone like him. There [have been players] that have one or two things like him, but never the complete package.

“It’s the combination of all those things you can’t wrap your head around, how explosive and agile he is at 6-foot-7, 285 pounds. He’s basically an offensive lineman that has a dancer’s feet and gets off the floor like a guy that’s 175 pounds.”

Former Knicks guard and Turner Sports analyst Greg Anthony played with Larry Johnson, one of the premier athletes the college game has ever seen, for two seasons at UNLV. Johnson had the ability to play inside and out, to jump over and through opponents, and shoot from the perimeter. Williamson’s game, Anthony said, is more advanced as a freshman than Johnson’s was as a junior.

“His game is a little more evolved,” said Anthony, who has seen Williamson up close on the AAU circuit while following his son, Cole, a top-rated senior guard at Oak Hill Academy. “Larry was a power forward who could play on the perimeter; Zion is a perimeter player who can play in the paint.”

Free agents will want to play with that....
