If the Knicks ever had their eye on this kid Brackins, I think they could make him work as either a replacement for David Lee or as a guy to pair up with Lee. He's more finesse than physical right now and he needs to develop into more of a complete big man but at 6'10" 230 some-odd lbs., he's talented enough offensively right now where he shouldn't have too many problems getting his offense in the NBA. Say they went with Brackins in the draft and had plans to deal Lee off for other assets. I could learn to live with that. I don't care how much Lee has raised his ppg average this year, Lee's not a scorer. This kid Brackins will be an infinitely better scorer and he has the potential to be maybe not as good a rebounder as Lee but a good one (I see 10 rpg potential), and he could develop into at least as good a defender as Lee probably a better one.
As for Teague, I like him a lot, although he's really reckless with the ball and it concerns me. I know Wake had a nice comeback the other night and he played a big part but dude, in that 1st half, he was throwing the ball all over the place. He needs to work on that. But as a scorer, a penetrator, he's top shelf.
