Lithuania lose but not because of rokas. He was undoubtedly their best player

Get your spot now before the Hukwagon fills up....

…but there will probably be plenty of room on the Rokasbus

Come on Rokas, give us some young Pablo Prigioni magic

I think he might be more Milos Vujanic, but I'd love to be wrong.

Is there even a contract we can offer him?

Should be able to offer him a second round exception contract similar to what Kolek got.

Hopefully it's enough to entice. At the very least, I'd like this guy to show whether he has NBA talent so we could draw some intrigue.

unless we are trading Rokas rights I don't see him coming over. Brunson/McBride/Kolek all at the PG spot.

I just hope he showcases himself during SL so we can trade him.

Hukporti has the Greg Oden and DeAndre Ayton disease.

Most interesting player for SL for the Knicks is going to be Kolek.

Last year I hoped he be a tall rim protector for us, but he was so stiff in the few minutes he played it looked like they needed to spray him with WD40. I think Thibs would have put a chain around him to keep him on the team if he played up to his height.

That's what I was thinking when I watched him play.

The Knicks would be better off going just going with Boban on a vet minimum instead instead of Shapo.

All I remember is the one game where he dropped a few dimes, he sure was stuff doing it tho (pause)

It's kind of annoying that OKC has all this wing talent and yet they drafted two guys, Dillon Jones and Ajay Mitchell, I liked for the Knicks. I guess that was before the Knicks added Bridges so it kind of made the mins scarce on the wing but it's still annoying. Heck, even if McCullar looks solid in SL he's not sniffing the floor this season with everyone the Knicks have already.

Looking forward to seeing what Pacome can do. Seems like he has excellent BBIQ.

Awesome. To me he looked great in the summer league 2/3 years ago or whenever that was. He does seem like he has NBA level talent, at least on offense

sol537 · Post #99 » by **sol537** » Wed Jul 10, 2024 5:16 pm

Kolek
Rokas
McCullar Jr.
Dadiet
Hokporti

Play them all 40 minutes. Let's see what they can do out there.

Any info on Game 1 of SL?
