This one cracks me up, we took Fields in the 2nd round over all those studs mentioned!
I love how people made it like we had the 2nd pick.

The Knicks, as always, were the running joke of the draft. With back-to-back picks at No. 38 and No. 39, the Knicks took two players who may not have even been chosen by any other team - Andy Rautins and Landry Fields. At least Rautins is arguably the best long-range shooter in this draft, but why take Fields this early, let alone at all? They could've went for Stephenson, Devin Ebanks, Robinson, Alabi, Gallon, Warren, or plenty of other guys, but no, the Knicks had to frustrate their fans once again.

From ESPN

NEW YORK KNICKS GRADE: D

Round 1: None

Round 2: Andy Rautins (38), Landry Fields (39)

Analysis: The Knicks had a pretty weird draft.

I can understand taking Rautins somewhat. Knicks coach Mike D'Antoni loves shooters and Rautins is the J.J. Redick of the draft.

But drafting Fields is puzzling. Yes, he's a great athlete who was one of the best scorers in the Pac-10 last season. But he was not ranked in our top 100 and I couldn't find another scout who had him in the top 60.

Maybe the Knicks know something that we don't, but with so much talent left on the board, it seems that New York may regret its decisions eventually.
