ESPN and DraftExpress have us taking Tony Mitchell with the 24th pick.

The guy reminds me a little of Wilson Chandler. In an interview with after his workout with Portland, Mitchell said he thinks he is a PF and brings rebounding and defense.

If he can grab boards and defend he might allow us to slide Melo back to SF.

So we play with a C/ PF combo that rebounds and defends and cant score.

I dont know what kind of offensive game Mitchell brings to the table. I wouldnt be upset with Wilson Chandler 2.0

Hes jus a rebounder thats it. No dribble...no shot
Knicks should be improved: win about 40 games and maybe sneak into the playoffs. Melo, Rose and even Noah will have some nice moments however this team should be about PORZINGUS. the sooner they make him the primary player, the better

He is no where near Wilson Chandler--but he does have a really good body and athletic ability. I think Kenyon Martin without the warrior mentality is about right. Now that warrior mentality is a special--and I do not believe this guy has that. Wed be drafting a really nice athlete who does have skills who has upside. He can rebound now in the nBA finish after that he would need work. There are very few 6-9 240 pd guys with 40 i9nch vertical presently living on this world--so he has a lottery body.

+1 he doesn't fit this team as currently constructed.
