winslow = mini jae Crowder. Its easy to take advantage of college 4s when the court is spread. What will he do against quicker, taller, and better 3s on the nba level.

It's like playing Shump at 3.

I think he is a 2. Seems like he transformed his body to play the 2. Maybe for the Knicks. He looks leaner.

looks the same to me and he has a suspect handle for a 3 and that doesnt help if you move to 2.

His handle drastically improved by the end of the season and tournament. He only needs to be an adequate ball haner like Jimmy Butler. Playing in the triangle should help him

Check out Bagleys and also Zwerlings twitter to see the most recent photos of OK4- he's looking svelte. Though as he shares Melo's body type, he will probably plumpen during the season

There is a larger body of work than just the tournament. Thats my point, Towns was not "the man" cuz "the man" gets a piece of the net!

Oka4 was hobbled AND they colapsed on him. The "man" was Jones who executed what Wisc gave them!
The games was not a pre draft combine, this was a game and sometimes you aim to neutralize one player in hopes the others won't execute.
For once Duke had the outside shot going when the bigs were not there.

for the season, Okafor was dukes best player. Jones and Winslow came up big. I don't care who we pick quite frankly. For now how the pick poing balls land is more important.

Either 1st or 2nd!!!

If they get a top 3 pick they will be fine. I think the odds are at 54% for top three.

55.8

so of course my $20 is on top 3.

poker players never choose 45 over 55

so here is what phil is thinking ....

I think they will be in great shape if they get a top 3 pick.

agreed! Unfortunately we have a 45 percent chance of not getting it and that is scary. After the top 3, it seems like a crapshoot.

epiphany: knicks will land karl Anthony towns in the draft. :)
Nixluva is posting triangle screen grabs, even when nobody asks - Fishmike. LOL So are we going to reference that thread like the bible now? "The thread of Wroten Page 14 post 9" - EnySpree

may the church say AMEN! AMEN! AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

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

This is going to be nerve racking.

1st overall: 19.9%
2nd overall: 18.8% - 38.7% Top 2
3rd overall: 17.1% - 55.8% Top 3
4th overall: 31.9% - 87.7% Top 4
5th overall: 12.3% - 100%

5th overall: 12.3% - 100%

If we fall to 3rd or lower, we need the Sixers to fall behind us, and preferably the Lakers to fall out of the top 5- that may then give us the option of trading with the Sixers for 2 picks (not saying we should do it, but it's nice to have options.). If Sixers finish 1 or 2 and we finish 3, I think they will consider trading Embiid for the 3rd so they can draft OK4 and Russell, which would be a killer draft for them. Again, I probably wouldn't do that deal, but it's nice to have options.

usually the second worst team ends up 3 or 4 and it usually flip flops every year.
