Come on give me Markus Howard at least younger than Obi

They really didn't want to roster 3 rookies.....c'mon this team is talent starved, we need young talent

I'm guessing those 4 picks we have next year will be consolidated as well

Knicks didnt even want their 2nd round pick, I doubt they want any undrafteds

We have to deal with the facts. They want vets.

seeing how they drafted a vet that would make sense

I must be missing something if so many of you are so sure about how bad a draft it was. Please share b/c I didn’t do much prep for this year

Did the knicks address creativity and driving from pg or the wings? Real shooting depth? Did they really need a pf? Draft was mediocre

Knicks need everything except a rim running rim protecting C

1 of the reasons I wouldn't have gone w/ Obi is that he isn't really a stretch-4 which is what the ideal fit is next to Mitch

he will be a better shooter than Randle I expect

Howard to Nuggets, dream is dead

it would be a damn shame if they made this a treadmill team

the focus should be the 2021 draft

Frank has another year of development and lets hope DSJ put that work in this off season. The fact we so far haven't traded for a bunch of mediocre vets makes me happy. Develop and play the young guys. Stink another year, draft a stud and keep acquiring assets and if the asset isn't what we like trade it for another asset. Exactly what we did with pick 33.

Quickly is less of a true PG than Frank is.

He was the third of the starting team in number of assists with less than 2 for a game (averaged 33 minutes). Maxey had 3,2 and Hagars 6,4.

I guess it would be nice to have an inside connection with the Kentucky coaching staff to know which player is underrated and perform well in the NBA. Ohhhh wait... I mean seriously, that's why we brought in Kenny Payne. If we were just taking Kentucky guys we would have taken Hagans at 33. But we took Quickley for a reason. I have to believe they know exactly what they have in him.

It was obvious when they hired Thibs

Can not wait until both Thibs and Rose are gone in 3 years
