Roughly where we currently stand...


Melo cannot play the 3, to many good SF's who defend. He needs to be a 4 where he can pop out for a jumper.

All my friends (Knick haters) knows Timmy for his shooting & rookie/sophmore game. Think he's nice & that we keep trading away talent like "we always do".

Okay did any of your friends watch any games last season? **** him and his streaky/no-defense playing ass.

Lol my friends don't watch Knick games unless it's a super hyped game. So that's a no for last season.

Learning curve is shorter for Grant to learn the triangle too because of his uncle.

They say his BBIQ is really high, probably the highest of anyone in the draft. I expect him to be teaching everyone sets by day 2 lol.

Tyus Jones pick remind me of the Shabazz Napier pick for the Heat last year.

well grant is also 23 years old. Porzingis was obviously picked as a high potential high ceiling pick.

I look at it like this.

Would you rather have a Porzingis/Grant draft

or

Mudiay/Looney draft

I think I would rather have the former by a long shot. Grant seems like he can do a lot of what Mudiay can do.


Hey hey hey. There's still a chance at looney as well
