I saw this a while back and couldn't remember where it was. This is a perfect example of this kids lateral quickness. This video blew me away when I 1st saw it. |

Holy **** he's fast.
Tymeless - where did you move from and how did you become a Knick fan? Rose is not the answer.

The more I read up on Shumpert, the more he reminds me of Larry Hughes. Both were highly touted, 6'5" combo guards with questionable jump shots and advanced defensive skilled who were probably miscast as point guards early in their careers. Let's hope that Shumpert realizes that his game is better suited to slashing to the rim at this point in his career and he develops a three-point shot down the line. Here's a quick recap of their college stats.

More is better and twice as much is good too. Not enough is bad, and too much is never enough except when it's just about right.

I think the Knicks could have drafted Singleton and then made a run at Malcom Lee. I don't see a big difference between Lee and Shumpert if that was what the Knicks wanted. Singleton was too good to pass up in my opinion.

Singleton was too good to pass up in my opinion. That probably would've been ideal. But it looks like teams didn't want to deal with us, for whatever reason. I really wish we could've bought the rights to Tyler from Charlotte. Maybe Jordan didn't want to help out his old rivals? Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more.

They did not want to deal with us because we had nothing to deal with, I would think. Another result of a certain trade. No man is happy without a delusion of some kind.

I guess if you are a gm and you can't fleece the Knicks in a trade like Morey and Ujiri you don't deal with them. I'm tired,I'm tired, I'm so tired right now......Kristaps Porzingis 1/3/18

I have to say; saw no point guard skills and very little by way of defense. At6'6", he's a big guard, he's an enigma "We are playing a game. We are playing at not playing a game..."
