I'm waiting patiently for the selfie photo-op of KP with that young crying selfie kid as he hands him a signed jersey and a smile from ear to ear on that kid. You know it's coming and I wonder why it hasn't happened yet, it will be funny.

Man, Porzingis reminds me so much of prime Sabonis,
Shotblocking, shooting, and all.

Even the putbacks, watch the 1:27 mark

Anthony, who has four years left on his contract, recently told confidants about Porzingis: “He’s gonna lead this organization long after I’m retired. Hopefully we can hoist one or two [championship trophies] before that happens.’’

Jackson may have the final nugget for his lofty résumé for taking Porzingis over Winslow, point guard Emmanuel Mudiay, and big man Willie Cauley-Stein.

Instead of jealousy over Porzingis’ sudden fame, Anthony is relishing it, becoming “a big brother’’ as promised in training camp. Anthony is almost always looking for the rookie-of-the-year candidate. And he wants no credit for the kid’s stunning start.

WOwww...This is such a gem. First the music is like out of some rocky film. Secondly and more importantly check :47 mark. If I saw KP do this I would lose my sh*t.

Wow, Gaines suggested Phil take Porzingis #1 if we were to have won the lottery.

Knicks brass was genuinely surprised he measured in during their pre-draft workout at a legit 7-1 without sneakers, and that was a factor in feeling comfortable enough to draft him at No. 4. Knicks advisor Clarence Gaines Jr., after scouting Porzingis in Spain, had recommended to Phil Jackson he select Porzingis with the No. 1 pick if the Knicks won the lottery.

Jackson couldn't pass up KAT if the Knicks had the number 1 pick but I have to wonder if he would have had the balls to take him at 2. That would have brought an even higher level of hysteria from the chuckleheads in the media than it did if he passed up on Jahlil 'sure thing' Okafor and D'Angelo 'second coming' Russell for Kristaps 'euro bust' Porzingis...lol
