Starr was generally regarded as the top pick of the draft. George is a high upside pick - a good pick at 24.

Are they planning on being bad next year . . . probably, but I don't think they did badly this draft.
Go Knicks!! Go Mets!!

As for the Jets . . . just keep it entertaining.

This team is set. There are no rotation spots left.

We haven’t re-signed iHart

Also, even if we do, you need a 3rd big with Mitch missing half the season.


You can find a 3rd big man off the streets

Right now the priority seems to save all the money in the world to bring Isaiah Hartenstein back.

It’s 6 seconds because we got 51st pick in the first trade back from 24 to 26

So we have a shot at 6 nikola Jokics

Meh. I’d need to be in their war room and know their plan before declaring them winners.

team is far from set.

No backcourt center
No front court depth
Need a backup playmaker (duce isn't a point guard)

tbh, that looks like a fantastic trade, if you imagine you are going to be drafting 22-27 if you had your FRPs.

Brock made out like a bandit, afaics.
