Him and Knox would be a great fit no doubt. He just coasted to a 28 point night and didn't even look like he broke a sweat

It’s gonna be interesting as the season goes on and we see these guys vs real competition. I still have Edwards as my favorite as of now. What are your comps for cole. How do you think he fits with the core of Mitch Knox Barrett

I've seen some flashes of different players in his game. He can get up the floor in a flash and finish around the rim kinda similar to Derrick Rose. He has an in between game that sometimes looks like CJ McCollum. The step back 3s are very Damian Lillard like. Think he would fit with those 3 just fine, they all have differences in their games and would all fit very nicely collectively. Would love to see it.

small frame not strong or that explosive but has the makeup of a pick & roll point guard that can shoot / play off ball. Guys like this usually have a place in the NBA. i havent watched him though outside of highlights so i dont know what his defense and stuff looks like. i like him though

I'm completely sold on Edwards. If we had the top pick I wouldn't even have to think twice.

Haven't heard he's nasty towards teammates at all. I have heard he's a HYPER competitor with a crazy work ethic, though - like, if they lose a game and he misses FTs, he's back in the gym after shooting FTs and he takes losing really hard. Tough nosed, too.

I think it's just the Magic

Like, seriously, look at their draft record since Dwight left

They've had a top 6 pick in 5 of 6 years and they drafted:
Oladipo 2nd overall, who didn't break out until after they traded him
Aaron Gordon 4th overall, who is okay
Hezonja 5th overall
Sabonis 11th overall, who was immediately flipped for Serge Ibaka
Jonathan Isaac 6th overall, who is having a bit of a breakout year, but still nothing spectacular
Then Bamba 6th overall

I just think they're bad at player development. I know we're ones to talk in that regard, but still

This as well. The only one I’m indifferent on is RJ Hampton. I’m good with Wiseman, Cole, Edwards and LaMelo. Obviously leaning more Edwards and LaMelo

Cole reminds me of Deron Williams

Yea im with you, although I am pretty high on RJ Hampton as well. Gonna be real hard for the Knicks to mess this up. I would love for us to find a way to get another top pick so we can get 2 of these guys. Preferrably Wiseman and Edwards
