Boy was that a miss.

Also he looks much more modern nBA than Willy G.

He looks really good and is going to be a very good player for a long time, but I'm willing to give Willy G a chance seeing how much Euro prospects are doing and many wonder how Jokic would play and both Willy G and Jokic has similarities.

when i was in vegas to see mudiay, nokic caught my eye. nice future
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

Don't bring facts into rants and mass hysteria over anything Phil Jackson.

Cherry picking times when Knicks missed second rounders, man?

As I recall the Knicks got pick 34 from Dallas about two days before the draft in the Chandler trade, so they didn't have much time to scout.

When was Gaines hired? Also, who says he wasn't telling Phil to pick him.

So the Knicks have to catch every European player on the radar? What about the other 29 teams?

This is just another example of the problem in the "let's just get a whole bunch of picks and be like GS" attitude. Much tougher than most claim it to be. Picking in the Lotto system called the draft is tough, even for the pros. Can you list 10 out of the top 30 players in that years draft that are solid contributors with high impact roles on their current NBA teams. Last I checked most of the top 30 were nobody's.

Where was Gaines when the Mets traded Nolan Ryan for Jim Fregosi???
Where was Gaines when Franklin Roosevelt gave too many consessions to Stalin in the Malta Conference?
Where was Gaines when "New Coke" was introduced?

KP and Willy played in the Spanish league. Presumably Gaines was scouting the ACB. Jokic played in the Adriatic League. The world is a big ass place.
Everything in moderation. Even moderation.
Where was our foreign scout or Gaines with Jokic?
