Almost less than 24 hours before the madness ensues. Let us be gifted with a franchise altering draft selection tomorrow night.
I will be held responsible for making the thread, I wish us all luck. Let’s **** do this.

To the rest of the league: Dread it, run from it, destiny arrives all the same.

From CBS new mock draft. some interesting tidbits on how scouts see Garland.
https://247sports.com/LongFormArticle/NBA-Mock-Draft-Zion-Williamson-New-York-Knicks-131991604/#131991604_4CBS Sports: "Garland is small but mighty (think Steph Curry size-wise). Scouts have said to me that Garland, a better shooter than Morant, has a really, really good shot at becoming the better NBA point guard between the two of them. He can score from everywhere. He's got a great handle and good vision."
247Sports: A knee injury ended his season early for the Commodores, but most aren't expecting meniscus to factor into his draft placement. This is a player with tremendous upside and the potential to increase his stock at the draft combine against other top-flight guards that might be ranked ahead of him in NBA front offices.

i see the top 5 being...
1) Zion Williamson
2) Ja Morant
3) RJ Barrett
4) Darius Garland
5) Cam Reddish
Ending up with one of them, at the end of the day,
Is a good thing. But ending up with Zion is franchise altering. And that’s the ultimate goal.

I’m just hoping we pick top-3. Still can’t get over the lottery changes because we’d be basically guaranteed it but it’s what it is.

If this doesn’t happen how we hope, the FO shouldn’t be blamed and the idea of tanking shouldn’t be persecuted.
We put ourselves in the position for good things to happen despite all the past efforts to not be here. That’s a huge victory for our long term goals.
Best of luck ladies and germs.

The pit of my stomach tells me we're getting the 3rd overall pick. I hope to Jesus that I'm wrong.

https://nypost.com/2019/05/13/the-knicks-unforgiving-draft-lottery-history-from-kenny-walker-to-kevin-knoxSince winning the controversial first lottery in 1985, and drafting Patrick Ewing, the Knicks haven’t landed a top-three pick again, failing to ever improve upon their pre-lottery position. On Tuesday night, Ewing will represent the Knicks on stage in one of the most important nights in franchise history, hoping to reverse so many years of bad bounces.

Just don't pick another player for your next name. That usually never works out (eventually).

Yeah I got a good one in mind, not putting a player ever again for a username, learned my lesson. Plus being called a KP fan boy when he was a Knick was annoying haha.

Why it’s not folded at the bottom corner?
