There's an overall positive analysis from ESPN on the Knicks draft night.

New York Knicks
Round 1: Frank Williams, 6-3, PG, Illinois (No. 25)
Round 2: Milos Vujanic, 6-2, PG, Yugoslavia (No. 36)
Deals: Obtained Williams and Antonio McDyess for No. 7 pick (Nene Hilario), Mark Jackson and Marcus Camby.
Scott Layden's back was against the wall. He doesn't believe you can rebuild in New York and he's probably right. So instead of grabbing a young Antonio McDyess in Chris Wilcox, he went for the real thing. He immediately added the All-Star power forward the team has coveted for years. Frank Williams may very well be the point guard of the future and the Knicks may not be done. If they figure out a way to move Charlie Ward and Kurt Thomas for Nick Van Exel they're a free agent center away from competing for the Eastern Conference title again. Unbelievable.

I would say A- if they pick up the 2 missing pieces.

I don't know if you caught Angles they interviewed McDyess and Spike asked questions to McDyess about another possible trade the Knicks are trying to complete well the Knicks are working on bringing a big man to NYK McDyess stopped short of answering who that person the Knicks are trying to get.

Dale and Bonzi would be awesome with McDyess Houston and whatever PG we have - possibly Van X? I dunno, I drool over the thought of having Nick here because I think he has a lot of potential in the right situation.
