I see nothing has changed in this organization. Tell me what will the Knicks and Gallinari do when Mike D is walking out the door to Chicago after next season. You don't select a player because you thinks he fits a system that early in the lottery.

You're pretty much right on. Don't forget there will be a new scapegoat who "ruined everything"!

oohah

Good luck Mike D'Antoni, 'cause you ain't never seen nothing like this before!

Geez, how far has Bayless's stock fallen after being slotted at #4 for so long.

BTW, Augustin over Bayless makes me believe the NBA really doesn't believe he's a PG.

He was the goat of this draft.

LOL remember when we were discussing the Zach/Philly trade? Remember I told you all players would fall? We're at pick 10 and Bayless, Lopez, Randolph all alive.

Hahahahaha. I can't believe it. Classic Knicks. NY still without an NBA team.
Wishing everyone well. I enjoyed posting here for a while, but as I matured I realized this forum isn't for me. We all evolve. Thanks for the memories everyone.

I am excited that Lee will now be the third worst defender behind Zach and Danilo this guy cant guard anyone. If the knicks dont do anything tonight they get a F

It sounds like Bayless doesn't even believe he's a PG. In one of his interviews, he was asked if he could be a true PG for a team, and he replied that he is going to be more of a scoring guard.

It's gets rough for him since he didn't work out for these teams. Think 1996 John Wallace.

I said last week Felton was a bad fit for LB and we should trade for him

For all those freaking out, wasn't one of the concerns that we were just going for "win now" players?

This means to me that we are not just trying to win ASAP, as goes the rhetoric from some against the D'Antoni hire.

I never understood why by hiring a coach that has a track record for winning and having a real system that was successful is a problem for a team that is "rebuilding." Now, with this pick, that seems like even less of an issue.

We tipped our hand as soon as we hired D'Antonio Mcdyess and we had plenty fans telling those of us who felt it in our veins to not worry have faith in D-Cups.

we have no need for another undersized SG... there must be a reason Bayless fell & i think Walsh did his due diligence considering all these factors as did every other GM that passed on him... if he makes people regret that then all power to him... Donnie got the guy that was next on their list of desirables after Mayo & Westbrooke in all likelihood.

The thing about Bayless is that we have a glut at PG unless we make some trades, which I am all for.

At this point, I'd rather keep Marbury and trade crawford, maybe somehow pickup Bayless to step in once Marbury's contract expires (Or more likely we trade him.)

oohah

Good luck Mike D'Antoni, 'cause you ain't never seen nothing like this before!

This tells me that Mike D is calling the shots on this team. A friend of mine who is a Pacer fan says that is Walsh MO. He let Brown run the team, he let Larry run the team, he let Isiah run the team. As I stated my fear that we pick a guy who we believe works in a certain system under a certain coach what happens when that coach decides to take his ball and run to Chicago because they realize their mistake in not giving him his money.
