Re: Immanuel Quickley to the Knicks @ 25
3 & D..i'm happy with it. The 3 part looks great especially with those percentages and combine/drill numbers. Does his defense match up to what he brings shooting the ball?

I never really got the Maxey hype
Nothing really jumped out at me when I watched him. Wouldn't've been mad if we got him, but I didn't see anything special there.

Re: Immanuel Quickley to the Knicks @ 25
Don't know him at all other than the stats and watching floaters but isn't it the case that on a deep college roster, with no finish to the season, it's not very reliable that you'd be able to gauge how good of a point guard he'll be? That seems too thin and too jumbled.

Good broad set of skills and pretty nice frame for the position.
I prefer having someone with a surefire bankable skill though. Especially when that skill is shooting.

I think unless you're very good at everything, having one great skill is better than having a bunch of good skills for role players.

Agreed. It will take some figuring out how to use Maxey.
Even Fizdale would know what to do with Quickley from day 1.

I know it's almost comical to keep talking about FTs lol ... but 144-156! He can beat Mark Price in HORSE.

It's how Coach Cal used him, he's was his best shooter so he used him in that roll. Remember Cal uses his players not to their strengths but to help him win. Remember Quickley was a Passing PG in H.S I think this kid is our steal of the draft. and I love Toppin don't get me started on him, he will electrify the Garden. This Draft gets a A from me both players are high character, not addicted to video games like Knox was and both played at a high level in school. Then Bringing him the NY breed boy I think we are headed I the right direction.
Would love to see a Line up of:
Quickley-PG
Barrett-SG
(We need SF) trade for one or Iggy not high on Knox.
Toppin-PF
Mitch-C

Yeah that's the thing. You cling on to that and hopefully his shooting translates off the bat, and he's useful. Useful is not bad in the late 1st. Especially since we badly need shotmakers.
Seems if he was a couple inches taller he's a Lottery Pick.
But I also get that maybe he won't be in the right places at the right time to be an NBA shooter and he's on the small side. Still doesn't make tons of sense but okay.
If he can get off and make shots, he's ideal because it doesn't seem like he'll be getting in RJ's flight path. Don't sleep on RJ as point 2/3.

And this is the main problem with Knox. He can't get traction because he doesn't do anything well enough yet.

Which bugs me cause coming out he had a floater and could shoot and now it’s like he can’t do anything but I blame fiz for a lot of that too

Also because he can shoot you can play Frank with Quick. Quick Frank.

Douglas was lighting it up as a shooting guard until the Knicks decided he would be their PG for some godforsaken reason. Ruined a productive player. Sometimes the organization sucks so bad they ruin decent players

he shot 5-6 of them a game too so he's not going to be like one of these guards who shoots a high FT% but never actually gets to the line (Jose calderon, Frank)

Very good read
If he is all that then I feel pretty good about this pick
Feel better about this pick after reading that.
Still think the Knicks FO was mediocre on draft night
I'm quite satisfied with this draft actually
The only thing I wish they done was use the 33rd pick, but I'm guessing they already have a deal lined up and know what their roster will be this season so they're banking it for a more loaded draft which is not a bad idea then

Toppin would be spinning like a literal top trying to create his own shot a la Julius Randle in that situation cause...wow...that may be the worst passing team in NBA history.
