Watch an actual game you'd understand where I'm coming from trust me. There's a reason his age is the #1 defense people have and for the last few months no one was discussing him after tons liked him early on.


Meh on D, can shoot the 3 , has a floater what else am I messing?

He shot 34% from 3 that's not good and he used the floater because he was too scared to go hard in the paint. But you aren't missing anything. Meh defender despite great physical tools, meh jumper, good floater, soft as hell, wanted to be Courtney Lee when UK needed him to be Melo, subpar on court IQ, horrible pro day by all accounts, first thing out his mouth when discussing getting booed at the draft was "I'm only 18".

Honestly we could've traded down and still got him. No one was looking out for dude.

He’s lazy and has a low motor

He takes dumb shots too. Why? He doesn’t like contact.

Robinson and Williams are the upside, but major red flags with them.
Evans seems like an ideal fit.
Melton/Milton/Thomas/Spellman would all fit nice.

Knicks should be able to get someone nice with this pick.
Jazz: Under reconstruction, we'll be back.

Meh defender despite great physical tools, meh jumper, good floater, soft as hell, wanted to be Courtney Lee when UK needed him to be Melo, subpar on court IQ, horrible pro day by all accounts, first thing out his mouth when discussing getting booed at the draft was "I'm only 18".

Honestly we could've traded down and still got him. No one was looking out for dude.


We could have called up the Clippers for their picks. Take who they want and let them take who we want. Swap.

He went to UK. Literally the only reason he got it because he wasn't even close to Sexton. You weren't active in the draft thread I already know you weren't tuning in.

I wasn't active in any thread cause I was watching games instead of posting. You don't have to like him but to say he sucked is stupid. What was bridges doing his freshman year? Again I would've gone bridges with our pick but Knox certainly has potential to be a good player and I'm not going to hate on him


Wasn't Bridges a key player on the NCAA champs? That Kansas said they feared the most in the semis? :wink:

Why did I get banned earlier for “tipping picks” when I didn’t tip picks and got pissed at other people for tipping picks?
