Just by looking at who the Knicks have lined up visits with, it looks heavy on the PG position. Could mean they are really interested in a PG or that they have their eyes on a PG in the 2nd or undrafted rather than picking one early. You really don't know what they are going to do.

Well, if Towns is refusing workouts maybe he falls to us.

He's not falling to 4. Just forget about it. It's even less likely than having Okafor fall to 4.

Did you guys see that espn article on Mudiay today? Holy **** he looks **** good. Don't think there's any limit to his upside. Like the lebron of point guards at that age.

I can't escape the feeling that Winslow is a smaller Kenny Walker waiting to happen all over again.

Just pick Mudiay, or any of the other 3 if they fall to 4.

Cant lie, I understand the paranoia some of you have, we've rarely got it right as a Franchise since Dolan took over.

Said it before and I will say it again. No way Mudiay gets past three.

LOS ANGELES -- In a world of draft stock and hype, Emmanuel Mudiay is invisible.
Out of sight. Out of mind.
That's what happens when you spend the year playing 12 games in China, most of them far away from the view of NBA scouts, and even farther away from NBA decision-makers like general managers, coaches and owners. Mudiay hasn't played a game of 5-on-5 since early March. He skipped the draft combine, leaving NBA folks even more frustrated. No physicals. No interviews. Nothing.
After I tweeted I was at the 360 Gym in Reseda on Friday to watch Mudiay work out, my phone began buzzing with texts and phone calls from all over the NBA. I was one of the first people outside Mudiay's inner circle to see him play basketball in months.
Everyone had the same question. How did he look?
The answer? Better than he looked in practices and games at the Nike Hoop Summit in April 2014, when a number of GMs had him pegged as a top-two prospect in the NBA draft.
So good, in fact, that I have no doubt had he stayed at SMU and played for Larry Brown instead of heading to China, he'd be No. 2 (where he debuted on Big Board 1.0) right now, just weeks from the draft.
Chad Fraud fwiw

The New York Knicks select....
Hopefully the best player available. I'm tired of hearing "this guy doesn't fit Phil's system, blah, blah, blah." I'm not sure if Phil even has the will to stick around long enough to turn this franchise around, so I'd hate for us to have our future sabotaged to suit a guy who won't even be here's system.

Agreed. Everyone freaking out because names like WCS and Kaminsky are being talked about. But at the end of the day, I think we pick whomever is left out of the top 4 and we should be thankful we didnt fall to #5.

I definitely want Russell in that slot and if he's not there I'd take WCS who reminds me of a Marcus Camby/Joakim noah type. Say what you want about a reach, you need a rim protector in the nba just look at the finals, mozgov(dont remind me) is destroying that GSW frontline. Memphis wins 50 games just with bigs, if you dont draft a big then youre overspending in free agency to get one.
