Hard for me to take Cole seriously when every time I see him, he reminds me of:

Once you see that, you won't ever unsee it :lol:

If this happens a year from now with New York on his chest in the Garden, the roof will blow off.

Yeah, nobody been talking about him. I brought him up a lil while ago to take the pulse of what you guys think of him. I like him. He is solid if we land outside the top 4. Definitely watching him.

Low key he might be the best PG of this draft long term. He can shoot it from anywhere, create his own shot, great athlete and his court vision is really good.

Look, I'ma catch a lotta flack for this. But fk'it... "It's Friday, you ain't got no job, and you ain't got schit to do." :lol:

Y'all wanna comp for Edwards? Here goes my hot take...

Dude is like a more compact and stronger bodied MJ :o

• Watch his footwork :o

• Watch how he uses the jab-step so effectively at such a young age :o

• Watch how he explodes HORIZONTALLY off the jump (not vertically) :o

• Watch the size of his hands relative to his height :o

• He even look like Mike in the grill, if you squint just enough, tilt your head to the side, and ignore the hair :o

DON'T @ ME! ! ! :lol:

Edwards is a fkn MONSTAR. Some of y'all just slow on the recognition. This kid is in a tier all by himself.

Need to try and grab another lottery pick in the top 8 if at all possible

You grab Edwards and then get a guard with the other pick. You set this franchise up for years

New pg Edwards Barrett Mitch frank Dotson iggy.
That’s a nice nucleus

Not that a bigman is a priority for the Knicks but just in general I really like this kid

What if Nico is there around 7th and the Hawks are picking. They already have their starting PG and they seem to value acquiring multiple picks or players, and then the Knicks trade the Dallas first rounders?

Might be a bit steep for Nico, but was putting up a name of someone who might fall and go lower than Cole or Lamelo, as far as PG's, but be good enough to be worth it.

I’d be for it. I still have hopes for frank but if we came out of the draft with nico and Edwards to pair with Barrett Mitch frank. I’d be extremely happy

Just to add. I know a lot of people wouldn’t want to trade picks to move up in general. But if the Knicks are sitting around 5th or 6th. I do exactly what the mavs did and trade up for Anthony Edwards.
Do whatever is needed to get him.
Trade the mavs 23 and mavs 21. The kid is just to talented
