Cool. Knicks can pass on him for another Orc or Hunchback with no skills

Jalen Green is a goddamn beast. I think he is the clear pick after Cade/Mobley. Looks like he could average 18PPG shooting 40% from 3PT right now.

Dallas is really f*cking up the dream. They need to get back in the lotto.

Good read on what was going on in the Knicks war room during last years draft and who was pushing for what players.

Just a guy I saw in our range on the Tankathon mocks so I figured I’d post his good game here


Not an efficient player. Yeah he can give you 20 but he’ll shoot a whole bunch of attempts to get there. I do like his FT% though.

I don’t really see anything more than a scoring spark off the bench


Kinda looks slow to me just based on that video. Probably not gonna get to the rim a lot but maybe he can replace Bullock? The late first round doesn’t seem as good as last years draft. Things kinda seem to dramatically fall off after the late lottery. Not really a ton of interesting guys outside of Jared Butler that are mocked in the teens. Granted maybe tankathon’s mock isn’t that great and we’re missing something but I’m kinda leaning towards trading one of our picks.

He’s quietly becoming one of my favorites of this draft. His handle is great, wingspan is huge, lights out shooter, crafty around the rim. Shout out to TerrenceClarke for putting me on.

Realistically the guys I am looking at for the Knicks would be (first round and 2nd round)

Ayo Dosunmo
Jared Butler
Davion Mitchell
Bones Hyland
David Duke
Terrence Clarke

I wanna put Bouknight in there but I think he’ll be picked ahead of our picks.

What is extremely impressive is Green absorbs contact like a multi time all star whos been in the league. He drives at his defender and has the moves and physically ability to get by or around anyone. So not only his jumpshot has looked nasty, Jay can make plays for himself and isn't afraid to slay some bigs in the post. He was giving 905 Raptors trouble the whole game and did what he wanted like an alpha. He's a safe pick and has potential to be the best SG in the league.

You think we're going to be targeting more guards this draft? Our front court is definitely set but we'll most likely have Rose and IQ in house still next season. We probably are going to need to replace Burks and Bullock so I guess hybrid 2/3's are in need. What direction do you guy think we'll go in?

We have one of the toughest schedules to close out the season, there's a decent chance we'll be back in the lotto :lol:

No joke, we might have like 3 or 4 games out of the next 20 that aren't against playoff teams.

IQ-Green/Cade/Suggs/Kuminga/Mobley-Rj-Randle would be a hell of a core going forward!!!!

His upside crazy to me. He looks like he can be the next SGA but with more range.

I think they’ll definitely target at least one guard. Would be great if they can get 2 of the players I posted in one of my previous posts
