That would indeed be so much fun! I also find it hard to believe that NY would pass on him.. especially after Porzingis being such a big success! And Porzings + Doncic duo would have so much potential!

Somehow I doubt that Knicks would draft Doncic. I think that Knicks might go with one of the bigger guys. I'm pretty sure that neither Ntilikina nor Doncic would be ecstatic about it.

Agreed.

Knicks drafting Bamba would be tremendous. That's be a twin towers pairing that no other team in the league could match.

But if NYK have their pick of any prospect form this class, Bagley seems like the obvious choice.

knicks need to go bpa regardless. whether that's doncic, or bagley.

I think that the top prospects are going to be seen so close to each other that team's core and needs could easily play a more important role than in most other drafts. Depending on when the Knicks hope to be able to challenge the title, all 5 players might be interesting to them.

Tonight @ 2100 CET Euroleague: CSKA vs. Real Madrid matchup. Should be a fine game.

Since we established Doncic is least athletic PG in the league, if will be hard for him to cover Athletic freaks Like Westermann and Fridzon. At least he is not facing Pelekanos.

Cant wait for the game tonight. I have a feeling Doncic will go off on CSKA but it will not be enough. He cant play for 40 min and CSKA will take advantage of Campazzo at PG which will be the difference in the game.

I've watched a lot of Doncic tape, and I can safely say he might be the best international prospect since Oskar Schmidt from Brazil. Passing, finishing, shooting, facilitating, everything. I say he ends up at PG. He might pull a Harden and start off at the 2 just to get him on the floor, but I would eventually switch him to the point at some time during his career.

Being a ball stopper today honestly. His ball handling is much improved, but still lacks quickness needed to penetrate, so all he does is dance at the 3 point line, and ten shoots step back 3.

God damnit, Randolph dislocated his shoulder and kuzmic probably tore his acl.

Doncic stock is going to drop playing without these 2.. And Real is just ****. Crazy

He's having pretty bad game so far, probably frustrated from combination of physicallity from Kurbanov and his shot not falling in.
You could hear "Pičku materno" when he missed FT.

Does that mean mother ****?

Yeah, not the best game today. He was holding the ball too much and his shot was not falling.

Its crazy with these injuries this season so far. First Hayward 2 days ago, Lin yesterday, Kuzmic and Randolph today... If this keeps happening, teams will be left with no players by January))

"In your mothers pussy" if we directly translate it. Just Balkan things.
14/7/2 doesnt look that bad of a stat line, but he had a horrible shooting night. After hitting the first 3, he missed 5 straight. Also his defensive effort wasnt that great, he forgot to boxout his man quite few times, but Real as a team struggled to grab defensive rebounds, especially in the first half.

Translation would be something like mothers p...y;-)

Yeah too bad for Randolph, he's been balling out of his mind since the elimination stage of Eurobasket.

It's funny that he had an off night by his standard and still finished with top performance rating. He drew 8 fouls after all, not bad for the most anti-non-athletic player in the league.

Did he win MVP for this week?

This a pretty impressive steal IMO showed anticipation for the ball bounce & quick hand.
