Both of these videos are guys saying: "I had a really long business trip, had some business trip dinners with clients, and flew back home and life is tough but fun making a bunch of money working for the NBA"

What I learned about the draft process: Um....that Mills had a long flight with a quick turnaround after visiting some cities.

i don't think you watched this video.

I watched the short one - might have been an intro. Those were pretty vanilla. You're right, as this looks like 11 minutes longer

Trading him for Jerian Grant.

1. Lonnie Walker
2. Mikal
3. Sexton
4. Knox

Mikal&sexton are my 1 and 2 worst case picks for us.

What is it about them that intrigues you because i just dont see it.

I'm not super high on Mikal but he's got 10 year starter written all over him just from shooting and defense. If he even learns to attack off the dribble he'll be great. I actually like Sexton and his pit bull attitude a lot. I think our team needs some grit and toughness. Plus we don't really have anyone that can get into the paint and draw fouls like him.

I feel like all these mocks that have Sexton as our pick are going to way be wrong unless Perry is playing it real close to his chest.

Tim is not his pet project. Mills was against trading Tim in the first place so he rectified Phil's mistake.

He should of rectified it with like $50-$55 mil instead of rectifying it with $70 mil.

If Sexton were picked most Knicks fans would be shocked.
