His season was also cut short do to injury so the sample is pretty small. Even if he played a full year I would still worry about his shooting because there is a distance adjustment.

I would be perfectly fine if Grant shot 34-36% from 3 but got to the line 7-9 times shooting 80%+.

You know anything about this guy Aleksandar Vezenkov? Seems like a great shooter and rebounder

http://www.draftexpress.com/profile/Aleksandar-Vezenkov-6429/stats/

i don't know much about him but the defensive stats are alarming with him just looking at his statline... not the end of the world usually but it's hard for any prospect to succeed if they're not active on that end...

Also, Grant shoots at an amazing 60% TS in college.

Decker's athleticism and skill is more impressive than Kaminsky. If i had to choose, id draft Decker before taking Kaminsky. His game will translate better in the NBA.

They are both good players. Decker is under rated--reminds me of a slightly bigger Jerome Kersey>very athletic wing but he also has some limitations--will need to be a good fit somewhere. I guarantee there are nBA types who love Kaminsky. The NBA is now a league that gravitates to bigs who can step out and play a mobile position. Hes a reasonable defender--hell be a successful NBA player.

Booker is pretty solid physically-big legs/frame. His shot is not as pure as those guys you mentioned but he should be a fine piece over time.

Undrafted prospects--if someone can get Joshua Smith to lose 40-50 pounds theyd have a nice prospect on their hands for the cost of nothing.

Im going to make a list of players not ranked who could potentially help the Knicks who might be SL undrafted possibilities.

He reminds me of a younger Robert Horry offensively. I he can carve out a nice niche as a combo forward in the league. I also like Kaminsky's in aND out game. He's a legit 4/5 at the NBA level.

Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more. More is better and twice as much is good too. Not enough is bad, and too much is never enough except when it's just about right. - The Tick

Decker reminds me of Keith Van Horn, a smalller version....

He certainly can shoot but defending a position will be tough in the NBA for him

that's just a bad shot by pangos there
knicks win 38-43 games in 16-17. rose MUST shoot no more than 14 shots per game, defer to kp6 + melo, and have a usage rate of less than 25%
