Two way slots.

I like the Kolek pick. He was at the top of my list based on the late and very little research I did. He plays like a Thibs type and has the skillset with the passing that we needed off the bench.

Did no research on Dadiet, McCullers or Hukporti. But Dadiet's highlights are impressive. He looks as talented as any of the lotto wings. He is a perfect wing to stash away overseas or in Westchester until he is ready. Going up against Hart, OG and Bridges in practice is a great way to learn too.

And the other two guys were picked in the 50s so it's whatever.

All I have is questions. Kolek means we don’t bring over Joku? Then what do we do with Joku?
Dadiet? Need more info.
McCullers defensive SG with no offensive game?
Hukporti?

All those trade backs. Probably should have additional consideration, no? What’s the additional consideration?

Second round exceptions also. My thing is that I'm not sure he's good enough. This isn't the Fizdsle Knicks we're dealing with anymore. Would you say McCullar is slightly below where Dame Dotson was as a prospect when he was drafted?

McCullar was a projected first round pick until the medical concerns with the knee popped up. So it comes down to that. He’s absolutely an nba player but given his age he has a small margin of error if the injury prevents him from getting his career off to a good start. With the Knicks suddenly dealing with tight finances, they are probably hoping he can show enough to be on a second round exception.

It's not just the injury. His shot has been shaky during his career and is likely the swing skill that determines if he sticks. Not really worried about it either way. I'm wishing the kid luck.

Paul Pierce came to mind but more so the way his feet kind of fall on the jump shot Franz Wagner.

Fact is Lebron might have played with some fans tender emotions but wheelchair Donnie and Dolan who made the pitch were dysfunctional then. Leborn is a lot o things but he is also a serious pro who has defined his generation as its best player.
I get some of you hate Lebron and personally would like to have seen it for comedy sake but holding him "hostage" for only hateful reasons is cool internst banter with nothing to gain.

I hate your analysis. Dude literally had his kid only try out for his team and Phoenix. And then told every other team he would play in Australia for the year if he drafted him. I’m fine with this rolling out. But I think he loses some respect for this shenanigans. There is a cost. And yeah, I might knock the kid to the ground for disrespecting the process. Welcome to the NBA, number 2.

You don't get to knock him down.
And yes, he will be tested for his nepotism and have earn his place on the court. His path to getting there was easy.
He disrespected the process? Perhaps so.
But why draft him to spite Lebron if it does not benefit the company/team best interests. Bronny is not that good. HE disrespects the process but he is of little value as a player. If he was, then its a different story.

Sorry, I Root for knicks to succeed and care little of some false fan retribution for another team. This is not a Marvel movie. What is this? "Lebrun thou smite my knicks 14 years ago and I took a blood oath to revenge thou knicks?"

Bronny will get knocked down. Its up to him to get up and prove he belongs the league and stand on his own at some point. If the Lakers wish to grant Lebron his dream and it cost them a 55 pick thats their business.
