I'd go nuts if we get Gasol, let alone Gasol + Towns.

Johnson, whom I love, would look awesome and fit in really well in Houston. Millsap obviously would too -- I think he'd fit on any team, to be honest.

Ya millsap is the type that does what his team asks of him and always does it well

I have love for him cause he is from monroe and went to la tech so I will always root for him

Ahem.. just gonna drop this here for you guys:

The North Carolina Tar Heels are off to an early start with their 2017 class, as they landed a commitment from top-10 high school sophomore Jalek Felton.

Felton, a 6-foot-3 combo guard, is the nephew of former North Carolina star Raymond Felton.

Jalek is AWESOME.

Very different game from his uncle.

Nope! Not even clicking to watch that video. Not interested! I need atleast another 2 years to get over the last Felton.

Would Vivek Ranadive believe that is the question. If he does and he is willing to trade Cousins to the Knicks for Okafor, you do it.

I'd figure Jalek has a lot of speed for a guard. Think how fast he needed to be to drive around his uncle, yet still be able to get to the hoop before the bigs recovered.

Towns is a guaranteed 10 rpg and 2 bpg Center. And he's not a stiff on offense. He'll at worst be a Noah level.

amen. he has the things you can't teach. he's nasty on defense. all heart. all hustle. the offensive game is showing some polish right now. he's already an exceptional passer. you can't pass on a big like this.

i see you're supporting okafor. i hear that. i am just leery of him for the opposite of why i like towns so much. his offensive skillset is impressive to get over on college kids. it won't be easy for him in the NBA. he doesn't always hustle. defense seems to be optional with him. he's got the opposite attitude of what i think we need. if i had the #1 overall pick, i'd go towns at this point.
RIP magnumt

thanks for everything, thibs.

oh, god. i just had a vision of a knicks starting lineup next year with melo, butler, and towns in it.

that's not a ring, but that's the foundation if the bulls don't want to match up to one zillion dollars.

That is the makings of a legit team. We're not gonna get Butler, I don't think, but that would be a **** awesome 2, 3, and 4. Add in a competent bench, solid PG / C, and you have a championship team.

Asik
Towns
Melo
Butler
Collison

With tim jr, shump, Calderon,early,thanasis off the bench is pretty solid.

i'd rather run with cole at this point than asik. talk about inept offensively.

and why don't we think towns can play the 5?

I've commented on the kid's defense in the past...but jeez, that skill down low is frightening

You almost HAVE to take #1 overall if you have that pick

No thank you.

He'd be great with the #3 or #4 pick though.
