It will always be natural for the average fan, and young fans especially, to disprove of a lesser-known player. International players tend to be that. Only hardcore fans with extensive basketball knowledge and ability to form their own opinion of a player they have not seen in live action based on scouting reports will possibly approve of this type of pick. Generally speaking, most in this forum will do their homework, but most fans in general won't put in the effort.

My fear is it will be "natural" to selfie your reaction to post on YouTube and/or watch yourself.

Actually, the truly scary part about this is the fact that if KP really does turn out to be a super solid player, these two will still make up a bunch of crap to justify their actions. They'll never admit they were wrong.

C'mon, that wasn't even a genuine moment. That was a made-for-YouTube/ESPN moment. Who know what they were really thinking at that moment other than to draw attention to themselves. They got what they wanted. Giving them more attention and extending their 15 mins will be giving them what they want and they'd say anything to get it.

Once they start looking for more ways to get him great looks things should really heat up for KP. His confidence will increase and we'll really see what this kid can do. It's very exciting having a young stud in development.

Wow. Sorry to hear about your brother in law. That's a touching story. I hope for the best for him and your family. Hope KP gives him more reasons to smile today.

I suspect not- I think it's Michael Rapaport (at least thats who it was accredited too when it first appeared on the net back in June).

Crush, I hope that your brother has a full recovery.

Good luck to your brother-in-law

Hopefully a Knicks' recovery can help his in some little way.
