Some facts of life: Knicks will never move up in the lottery and Frank Ntilikina will always be a bust.

Frank was in the draft we passed on D.Mitchell and Bam Adebayo and it was K.Knox that was in the draft we passed on SGA as well as both Bridges and M.Porter.

Exactly Frank got drafted before SGA. I think you’re interpreting that as me saying they were in the same draft but Frank was the already a knick for a whole season before the Knox draft.

World Wide Wes has transformed into World Wide Neck.

Clearly not missing any meals on those Dolan paychecks.

I actually like the thought of a Toppin/Sochan starting frontcourt…

Both big, athletic, and a threat to shoot. You don’t need 7 footers in the league right now as long as your guys are tough and have a high IQ, which Sochan brings.

I think the likeliest candidates for the pick right now are Mathurin, Sochan, Dyson, or Davis if they stay at #11. 2-3 of them should be there at #11

Knicks are 11th correct? I've seen a few things saying they were 12, but maybe they were videos done before the play in got settled or something.

I thought it was 11 right now, but of course, will be bumped to 12 or 13 once a few teams jump ahead.

And even that guy is still very far from being a great ball -handler.

True. He lost his confidence here but he's still young and has a good coach to teach him.


So we're doing this again?! Knicks cant' develop and we're hoping he can? I'm not sh.itting on the guy but we just went through this and people were literally laughing at us for being Frank stans. Come on.

CJ McCollum got revenge on Portland and got the pelicans in the playoffs by winning the Playon which meant that the pick then went to the Hornets and the Clippers missed the playoffs and their better record knocked the Knicks up to 11.

It’s all conjecture, why not let him get some shine. I think they are reading to much into it

He can't shoot though but I could still draft him on the other skills, especially if he's really 6'7-6'8

Thats what they said about LaMelo too. But if Daniels shot well we would have no shot at 11



True that. And people are taking notice. Some mocks have him now going ahead of our pick.

Hopefully he doesn't shoot up like giddey did. And it turned out to be a great pick

Basically how could you say you thought Frank was going to be SGA when he was in the league before SGA? If anything he Knicks avoided SGA because they thought he was going to be like Frankie…. Which is relevant because so many people are immediately overlooking TyTy because they think he is going to just be another IQ. I remember a lot of people here use to say we shouldn’t take Haliburton either because he was just going to be American Frank.

I agree with you and I absolutely think it weighed into their decision making process that they just drafted a wingspan guard a year prior
