Aleksej Pokuševski is quite intriguing I think. They have him listed as 7’0 PF and he moves really really well. He’s incredibly young (18 right now), he shoots the ball well for his size, and he has some really interesting flashes. I think he’s definitely worth a shot as a late first round pick or 2nd rounder. Obviously has a long ways to go and I don’t think his competition is remotely the highest but talent and upside alone makes him intriguing to me if we go PG in the lottery

This draft is interesting. After the top 5-7 players the next 10-15 players could basically go in any order and I would not be shocked. There are going to be a lot of guys who won’t be stars, maybe not even true solid starters, but will be really solid contributors. Whether that’s good bench pieces, 6th men, role players in the starting lineup, etc.

It will be interesting to see how accurate mocks and such are compared to normal years with all of the unique events that have unfolded within the last couple months and will continue to effect the draft process throughout

I love how he plays. Absolutely not going to be someone who will ever likely be a + on the defensive end but I think he can become passable on that end with added strength. Being able to get someone who could be a Trae Young lite or Seth Curry at 15-18 would be a really good get and a perfect fit for this team lacking shooters. I think his passing is better than he showed as well



My Dude, if it wasn't for that Bulls fan's post here, I would have slept on Tyrell Terry. How can the Knicks fans have slept on him in general.

This should be our #1 overall pick and my money here is that he is the STAR we're looking for. Yes, BIGGER than LaMelo.


Been on him bro! This guy would torch the Pac 12 if he went back to school. I’d invest in his stock.


Let me giv you a gift then. Check out this scouting video, I mean it's a REAL scouting video. Then watch LaMelo's by linking to
Hardwood Hoops Central's NBA Draft Green Room and LMK.

It definitely will be interesting but is it me or is time moving in reverse? Instead of closer the lottery just feels further and further away to me...Two more months seems like an eternity to wait.

I wish he played with a little more of that Steph/Trae swag and confidently jacked up some more off the bounce threes but regardless that stroke is sweet. I think if he has the ball in his hands more at the next level he’s gonna be a better passer than he showed at Stanford.

My new new new :D , #1 pick.

You know what else I buy about Terry? I think he’ll be one of those guards that will annoyingly draw a ton of fouls like Trae Young or Kyle Lowry do off pick and roll. While it’s not my favorite thing to watch when you’re on the other side of it, we really need someone who can do that for us. Gets under the players, coaches, and fans skin.

Heres a interesting comparison of who many believe as the 2 elite bigs in this draft...James Wiseman and Onyeka Okongwu.

Hayes with a resounding win to secure the #4 spot in our Big Board. Poll for #5 is up

This is where it gets interesting to me. Probably will have a lot of variety here. Also Okoro was added to the poll as he was the only write in.

My Dude, I stayed up until 2am watching this complete scouting film. It's not a scouting/grading report as it shows noting but game clips both good and bad plays. No analysis or grades. Seems like it's a film session that pro scouts would use, it's that extensive.

Once I was done, with tired eyes lol, I went to the LaMelo film and you know what, Terry is going to be better. LaMelo is crazy flawed both offensively and especially defensively. Like he has no clue how to play team defense, whereas Tyrell Terry is an elite team defender. OMG, does Terry remind me of Steph with his release and picks/baseline cuts.

Let me go on another limb here, and I will be 'mocked" to no end but, Tyrell Terry is this years Stephon Curry/Donovan Mitchell overlooked draft picks. But I'm super eleated that Tyrell is being overlooked, that means that he may be available when we pick.

Man, I'm putting my money on that Perrin has this kid in his sights. Tyrell Terry if drafted by the Knicks, at the end of his career will be considered one of the Knicks greats. He will in my best Nostrodamus self will be responsible for leading the Knicks to 2 Championships.

Ok, let the blowback commence. :wink:

I like him as well and would love to get him but don't see him making it to the late 1st round and definitely isn't making it out of the 1st round. I'd be good with grabbing one of the top PG's with our lottery pick and trading up to get Poku.

im going by write in's as well as consensus mocks. I wasn't planning on adding Terry before Kira for PG options just becuase consensus wise rankings for guards.

If you truly believe he should be picked this high you can always write him in "other" section and just post in comments.
