Knox is god awful, true... but devil's advocate MPJ had very serious injury concerns. There was a reason he slipped so low and so many teams passed up on him...

The one that kills me is Frank over Donovan Mitchell... Because Phil wanted a "true PG" instead of a combo guard... The Knicks were seriously considering Donovan smfh... I think that pick was parting f*** you to Dolan. Only justification.

SGA equally haunts me from that 2018 draft. We don’t even need to tank.. we just need to make better draft choices :lol:


It's this stupid a** mentality of drafting for team need or fit instead of talent... The Knicks have no talent, every position is a need... Just swing for the fences and draft the player with the highest upside.

At some point it's bound to work out, right?

Cursed fu**ing franchise.

I dont' care that we passed on mpj - not because he is maga or that we would ruin him. I've just accepted we don't deserve nice things. and I blame most of you for it.

IQ the only player on the team with that "sort" of talent and he's not half as talented as MPJ.

Watching these Western Conference teams, you realize how hard Randle and RJ have to work for their points and it doesn't inspire much confidence. At least they're workers so I expect them to come back better next year.

Not saying that either would go off like this, but put them on a team with jokic and either would score a helluva lot easier
