Draft Thread 13 - The Field Thins

[8516knicks]

Knox just feels like he'll be the forward equivalent of Eddie Curry. He should have shown more at Kentucky if he was that good. Would we draft a Michael-Kidd Gilchrist coming out now?

Knicks analyst’s draft wish is also indictment of their young PGs.

MSG Network’s Wally Szczerbiak likes both Villanova’s Mikal Bridges and Michigan State’s Miles Bridges — but believes the Knicks’ focus in the June 21 draft should be on their need for a top-line point guard.

Szczerbiak, who doubles as a CBS college basketball analyst, told The Post he would take point guard studs Trae Young or Collin Sexton at No. 9, if on the board, over either of the Bridges, who are both small forwards.

“The point guard position in a Knicks uniform has to be solidified,” Szczerbiak said. “It’s been too long. That’s been the big-time need for this franchise. Unless you have a game plan to get Kyrie [Irving] and can solidify it that way, I think the point guard position is the most important position.”

That’s hardly a vote of confidence for the young Knicks trio of Frank Ntilikina, Trey Burke and Emmanuel Mudiay.

“They have a lot of really good point guards, but do they have an impact point guard in the NBA?” Szczerbiak said. “That’s the question. The answer to me is, it doesn’t look like it.”

and then, when we draft a pg, and he doesn't ball out his 1st season, what then wally? we draft another point guard? **** both of wally's eyebrows.

My question is: why does the media even know that the Knicks front office recieved calls about possible pick swap deals...

Knicks being completely unprofessional as usual..

Agent misdirection and scuttlebutt.

Why is the assumption that it's the Knicks leaking?

Serious question, do you even know what my first post said that you were responding to? Know what the conversation was? Do you even know what you said or did you see an opportunity to nitpick and say technically no one knows the future so no pick is a bad draft pick as if that's making a point? Like was that really profound to you? You click submit and think to yourself "now I got him, another win for semantic man"?

Why so mad?

And there's my answer.

Well i hope you feel better now.

Y'all gotta chill with this revisionist history

High school Mitchell wouldn't even be drafted, let alone be a top 10 pick. It's not only Frank's long arms, Mitchell has a similar wingspan. Stop oversimplifying it

And you're the one that's gotta come in to threads and whine about Frank, so I don't know why you're acting like the victim

Malik asked me a question and I answered him what MY opinion was. Y'all are the ones who are butthurt about it. It's my opinion, don't care what you think. Kid was super raw even in Europe, y'all are the ones acting like he was Luka Doncic over there. Anyways, like I said, I answered a question that was asked to me, I didn't start the discussion I just engaged in it.

You're right, you didn't start it

BeagleBoss started by complaining about Frank (per usual) and saying the scouts that ranked him above Mitchell should be fired, then Fury responded to him, then he replied back.

After the third post, you replied with this:

It didn't make much sense to me either, especially when they put this graphic up on draft night



That shyt had me in tears

So no, you didn't answer a question that was asked to you, you decided to jump on the "bash Frank" bandwagon much like you do in other threads

And show me where I have ever said he was anything but super raw in Europe, or that he isn't super raw right now

And you cry like a little bitch as usual. I didn't complain once about Ntilikina. It's called having a discussion and opinion on a message board. Fury, HEZI, newyorkerforever, shamgod, E-Balla and I were all having good talks. None of us got heated or offended like your weak ass. We disagree but that is allowed!! So change your panties and stop crying and reporting everyone who doesn't think he is next Antetokounmpo. Its idiots like you who ruin threads and this board!!!!!!

IN on Knox. The shot will translate. The off ball movement will translate. Just needs some more confidence.

i really wish some of these talking heads would elaborate with this "teams" ****.

Feel like Porter is reaching that he's so overrated that he's now underrated level especially on this board. His ceiling is way higher than Mikal or Miles. And I'll just leave it there for now... but I would understand if Porter got to 6 and we wanted to trade up without giving up Frank/KP. Judging him for how he was at Missouri is not fair given the context of his return and where he was physically. No prospect in our range is without their warts.

I'd prob be cool with MPJ, but I made an effort to watch his games upon return and was left disappointed with the way he moved around the court. Basically feels like he has to be an elite shooter to be effective. I do see the upside, though.

It sure ain’t the top five.

If the 76ers were smart they would trade Markelle Fultz to the Cavs for the 8th pick. Draft Mikal Bridges who would be the perfect glue piece to their dynasty. Then they draft whoever at #10. THeir main priority should be to get Mikal though. Fultz is an odd fit with that team anyways.
