ima just go down the guaranteed bad teams that are probably top 5 lotto bound

Hawks- trae young / Easy target for edwards / wiseman
Warriors - curry / Easy target for edwards / wiseman
Cavs- sexton, Garland / Easy target for edwards/ wiseman
Memphis - morant / Easy target for edwards / wiseman
chicago - unpredictable
pelicans - unpredictable

i honestly dont see edwards being a thing unless the basketball gods are on our side and we get the #1 or 2 pick

i have lamelo penciled in as the most likely knick pick

It's looking like AE and Ball are the elite game changers that would fit perfectly and elevate the Knicks roster......but get a real coach, that would help so much.

Someone please convince me on cole anthony.

Im trying to talk myself into him but i just cant.

Id rather just roll with frank/dsjr combo instead of wasting a top 5 pick on this guy.

I agree: teams with a great PG situation will avoid drafting PGs.

Besides Atlanta, Warriors, Cavs and Memphis, I guess Pelicans will also try to get Edwards/Wiseman. They have Lonzo/Jrue/NAW.

Chicago probably want a PG (if they view White as a SG).

I see Hawks, Memphis and Pelicans having a good second half of season. I dont think they make Top 5 pick unless they win the lottery.

I see Charlotte, Spurs and Oklahoma better candidates to Bottom 5. They are unpredictable.

I feel like cole just seems like another dennis Smith jr.
Go all in and trade to get Anthony Edwards or try and draft lamelo or wiseman. Cole doesn’t excite me currently

What do you guys think about Nico Mannion? I really like the ginger.

Edwards is really the only one I look at and feel confident he will definitely be something special, not to say that the others can't and I'm sure some of them will, but he just seems like the sure fire can't go wrong safe pick out of the lot

North Carolina vs. Michigan coming up on ESPN

I've only seen highlights so far but he looks like he has high bbiq and can shoot. I like his game.

I'm all about going PG with our lottery pick but if we end up at the end of the lottery then i would definitely be looking at this kid.

This NC team just isn't good and their floor spacing sucks. Everytime Cole tries to drive to the basket he's running into a wall and nobody even on the outside to kick it out to. They all play inside the arc

Fat · Post #1292 » by **Fat** » Thu Nov 28, 2019 7:30 pm

lol NC truly lives or dies by cole. Trash team

My favorite scenarios
1. Win the lotto and take Edwards (he’s going 1st)
2. Fall a little in the lotto but still get Cole or Lamelo although I have my concerns about both players
3. Trade back, target a PG like Mannion or Maxey and hope to get another late 1st or 2021 1st rounder

good article on Tyrese Haliburton. If we got a mid to late first as well. I would take a shot on him

They couldn't recruit anybody better than these bums?

i still find it shocking it took them this long to take an L assuming this game is pretty much over

Juwan Howard has been a good find for Michigan.

They won't win many games if he has to carry them night in night out. They need others to step up but its hard to see who even has that potential, they are all scrubs
