All these players can go in virtually anywhere. I wont speculate on who the Knix will pick , but we should be able to get an impact player at #7. This draft differs alot from previous draft where where we knew who was going to be in the lottery. Knicks would be wise to move our early 2nd round pick for a late 1st rounder. Knicks may have to trade Harrington to do this, but its well worth it. This may be one of the deepest drafts ever. Any player can be potentially next years rookie of the year. I dont think Layden will go out on a limb and take a controversial player at #7, but I think he will go out on a limb with 2nd pick and try to get a sleeper pick. The last year draft fiasco just about handcuffed his freedom.

You figure Ming, Williams, and Dunleavy are expected to go 1-2-3. Gooden, Butler, and Wagner should be the next 3 picked, but thats no sure thing. Wilcox, Nene, and Tskitishvili are likely to come next. Then Woods, Borchardt, and Jeffries will round out the lotto. That 13th lotto pick is still in question. I would say Stoudemire, but his stock had dropped since his injury so my best bet now is probably Haislip. The players are predictable, but can be arranged anyway on draft night. My guess is our impact player is either going to be Wilcox or Hilario.
