If we fall out of the top 5 he becomes my #1 target. Ideal 3/4 next to KP.

I'd rather kick DSJ right in his no defense playing ass but thank you anyway but please do continue on for another 12 pages....lol


Why do y'all make DSJ the enemy like he's our arch rival lol. I preferred Frank to DSJ months before the draft, but still think DSJ is going to be a really good player in this league. Why does he have to suck to make us feel better about ourselves?

Watching Frank and Timmy switch with ease and not end up in a mismatch was great. If we can just get a agile 6'8-610 SF who can defend and shoot 3's I'll be happy. I'd love the Knicks to look have the length of the Bucks with 3 point shooting. With Frank,Timmy,KP and a 3nD SF, there will be more than enough shooting and ability to switch on most possessions.

Sounds like a 2nd round low risk pick.

Mitch Robinson is an interesting case. I do not think he will be picked in first round despite first round talent. He might be another Deandre Jordan.

I don't think he has to suck but as long as he's playing well we'll have to hear about him every single day on here and for me i don't want to hear about him every single day and would much rather hear about Frank who's actually wearing a Knicks uniform. That's all i was saying.

If you don't want to hear about him then don't go into threads...on a basketball forum. We get it, you don't want to read anything about him. That's cool. There's no reason to complain anymore.

Then you need to stay off the forum. They were taken 8th/9th. We had a chance to take him. There will always be 2nd guessing. It is part of sports.

Both the Knicks and Mavs are happy with their pick. I think we're past a point where people are bringing up DSJ in regret. Once the people that never saw Frank got a glimpse, they ate their crew and we united. It's dead if you ask me.

Ummmmmm ok, then stop complaining. It's a basketball forum and the two players were picked back to back. If you're going to keep posting here, then you're going to have to find a way to deal with your issue because the complaining ends now as I am done with this conversation. If you want to continue it further, feel free to PM me.

Right and I am worrying about myself because just as it annoys you to hear people talk about DSjr it annoys me to hear people complain that people are talking about a basketball player in a basketball forum.

No i'm good. I thought this was a place for Knicks fans to talk about whatever they wanted and not be threatened to be.......removed maybe?? I'm not sure but that's what it seems you're getting at with that post. That's really too bad if i'm correct.

Anywho now that that annoyance is done. So who is in the 11th to 19th pick range that we might be able to get?

I literally only focused on scouting the top 5 because I really thought we'd suck really really bad.

Lol my dude, this thread is just hoops talk. We don't gotta treat DSJ like the plague. As fans of the NBA we should appreciate young NBA talent, and this is coming from someone that wanted Frank so I'm not a DSJ apologist by any means.
