i watched McGraw play. he was a "nice" college player but nothing jumped out at me. i dont even believe i derrick jones that much but at least he has way more upside at the pro level. Mcgraw was EHHHH
Knicks should be improved: win about 40 games and maybe sneak into the playoffs. Melo, Rose and even Noah will have some nice moments however this team should be about PORZINGUS. the sooner they make him the primary player, the better

Ill give you one more steal. The center for Villanova --getting him undrafted--that would be a steal. He was a big piece of that team winning a LOT of games for 4 years. Hes big physical athletic and mobile. He can be like our Fetsus Elsie

Wait until you see the influx of players this year---its going to be a 2nd rd draft with kids who are not there--some are and pushed down like Daniel. But we can use a second rim protector for sure.

"ludes"? over 100 underclassmen will probably declare for the draft. the 2nd rd will be fool of players who are looking for a shot. many will be underrated or overseas stashes. will he get a look? sure...hes like 7ft and im sure he can walk & chew gum. but im skeptical of his chances in the NBA. i hope im wrong..seems like a good kid Knicks should be improved: win about 40 games and maybe sneak into the playoffs.

Overall i think its good when you (BRIGGS) and i agree/disagree on a prospect. im sure many folks here watch NCAA ball but we seem to have a good pulse on prospects. so when folks read something you or i say, they can also see the rebuttal (from what you or i reply). they can see two different point of views (like ochefu having poor foot work,stamina and awful hands and you thinking hes an undrafted sleeper). but on the other hand if we BOTH agree on prospect THEN they know that prospect is the real deal
PS another possibility is that no one CARES. ahhhhhhhhhahhahahahaah Knicks should be improved: win about 40 games and maybe sneak into the playoffs.

But if he doesnt hes going to get guaranteed deals from more than 1 club. I look at our club we have two basket protectors but they both play on unit 1--we really do not have rim protection on unit 2. RIP Crushalot😞

Thick in his body/ legs--long arms easy baskets good shot blocker/rebounder. Im not sure he gets drafted--but it would make sense to bring him to SL if he does go undrafted. We need a second/third unit interior rim protector. I dont think Willy G is the guy. RIP Crushalot😞

With zero picks of our own going in and an incredibly limited amount of resources to trade for one, I'd be ECSTATIC if we were able to come away with just one of these solid players projected to go in the 2nd round/undrafted--I'd prefer a PG and have zeroed in on these 3: Yogi Ferrell (could be close to Kyle Lowry), Marcus Paige (I see some Mike Conley Jr./Cameron Payne), Kay Felder (Isaiah Thomas/Damon Stoudamire?). It's a huge position of need for us and there's a limited amount of choices to improve this spot in FA without wildly overspending (which I don't think is advisable, at least not this summer). I have a couple of ideas to improve the position w/o overspending--landing one of these 3 is part of that plan.
The one 'reach' player I'd look to trade for a little earlier in this draft -- Demetrius Jackson. Didn't have as big a year as I thought he'd have but I still think this kid's gonna be a good pro, better than Melo Trimble. It'll be interesting to see where he winds up getting picked -- some mocks have him upper 2nd round, some in the lottery. If there was a scenario out there where we could package Jerian Grant/cash/the rights to Louis Labeyrie to somehow get Jackson, I'd consider that. And I'm not trading Willy Hernangomez. For one thing, he's tight with Porzingis and that's a positive. 2nd positive--from everything I've seen, he's impressive. The man can obviously play. This guy's rebounding and post offense looks NBA ready to me. Plus he can run, he's big (6'11") and he's physical. Just going off video, he looks like an infinitely better option over Kyle O'Quinn as a primary big off the bench. Time will tell how he adapts to the NBA game but if I had to guess, I think worst case we're looking at a much better player than Kyle O'Quinn, probably better than Nick Collison/Mitch McGary. Best case is something close to Enes Kanter, who most people don't like but I consider a good player (Kanter's a damn good rebounder/post scorer). I think the plan should be to bring this dude over and start incorporating him right away and exploiting his strengths. I'm confident we could add some effective/cheap shot-blocking elsewhere if they felt that was also a need. Back to Demetrius Jackson--like I said, I know he's a reach for us and don't expect to get him. I'd be just fine with Ferrell, Paige or Felder. |
