I have heard the Knicks own his rights and i have heard he was involved in the McDyess trade. Anyone know the deal with him?

I'm pretty sure he belongs to the Knicks.

Yup his rights belong to the Knicks.

The deal was Dice + Frank Williams + 2003 second rounder for Camby + Jax + Nene.

Milos is a good pick though, if he bulks up and works on his D he'll be a very good PG.

I haven't seen him alot but he's a good player with definite NBA potential. A flashy kinda player who really loves the NBA. He's a wannabee Bibby and he actually can get close.

He's flashy but a tad slower and has a really wiry frame which is THE big knock on him. Luckily he plays for a good team in europe and is signed for another year (at least) so he can develop some more.

If he works on his conditiong and strength combined with working alot on his D he'll be a really good sleeper pick as people already compare him as to being a better version of Raul Lopez (just wait and see if Raul will play for the Jazz this season and salivitate on the prospect of getting someone better then Raul).

It's a surprising pick but with luck it could be a golden pick.

I just saw on Sportscenter that he was traded in the deal, but he could very well still be a Knick.

Also, there's a decent player profile on him over at nbadraft.net.

Yeah nbadraft.net is pretty quick with these things. I wonder how many people contribute to that site and what the overall goal is for whoever runs it.

However, milos needs to bulk up alot, not a little as it says right there. I don't know if he's all that clutch like it says right there but he's had a pretty good season and is growing into a better player.

He might be one of those guys who's drafted hoping he can become a first round bound player in next years draft or whenever. The Knicks can keep him overseas for now and maybe he will develop into a solid back-up point guard in a couple of years.

You mean someone who may not have even an incling of a chance to make the roster? Like Weis or Chenowho?

With late first rounders and second rounders you gotta trust Layden.
