I dont know who will be our 2018 pick but 2019 pick is Sekou Doumbouya, running mate of Frank in that championship they beasted together, fat scoring rebounding forward with long arms huge hands, pace n power baby

And if we can somehow land Doncic here our franchise path would follow like the Chicago Bulls after they got MJ

Would be cool to have the buddies Doncic - Willy - KP & Frank - Doumbouya all together #BuddyBall

We might not get a top 10 pick in the draft because Dolan and "Wind" Mills gave a huge contract to Tim Hardaway JR and aren't moving Melo despite listening to offers. That makes the Knicks terrible not awful.

I love Bridges fit with our core and I know I can't fall in love with Doncic or Porter because it's unrealistic to think we can get that high of a draft pick. Swiss army knife 3/4 tweener who can protect the rim and has shown a jumper. Bridges could be right around that 10 spot. Give me all of the Miles and let's go to war in 2020 with old man Melo back ring chasing lol

While I am on the Bonga express I can roll with Miles as well. I fully expect western teams to take the top two spots. I mean schit even brooklyn well prob improve in this weak ass east. Knicks **** around and still end up like from 5- on down. Fans hoping for doncic or porter will have a stressful ass season. :lol:

[On Draft Night] We have a trade to announce...

The Knicks trade the draft rights to Luca Doncic to the Miami Heat for Goran Dragic.

Is it me or does Michael Porter's arms look real short? <-- have to watch out for the #teamwingspan.

But this early on, based on the clips? If I had to basically choose from clips and what I can project, I'd probably favor Doncic or Bamba. I'm not seeing what Porter does so well projected out to the NBA for me to think he's the best guy.

Would like to see him show some improvements on his handle, which we would need him to do, and his body type not remind me of a fat melo or charles barkley, but maybe our skinny squad could use that fatty since its explosive and have the hops anyway

Dude we are going to be the worst team in the league next year.

The only team that may be worst than us is atlanta.

Doncic and mpjr are legit possibilities.
