Have watched both Jazz summer league games and damn --- Mitchell has been impressive in terms of his D, his ability to both attack the basket and shoot long range.

Great energy -- relentless player -- appears to be built for pro game.

I'm watching him and thinking to myself (I love Frankie) but man he is going to have to be very-good to impress me like Mitchell.

On top of Mitchell --- Fultz (scores/moves so easily), Tatum (dear lord -- watching and thinking this kid scores more effortlessly than Durant did coming out of Texas) and one announcer said of Tatum "that body - wow -- what a body".

Tatum doesn't look explosive until he decides he's going to ram the ball down your throat --- and his myriad of offensive moves and the crispness of his fakes/hesitations/jab-steps is something to watch (particularly at 19).

The anxiety/envy post-draft exercise has begun.

not really. This was a talented draft and we know the Knicks took a LONG look at Mitchell so no... I appreciate the intell. I read Tatum looked amazing. Fingers crossed on Ntilikina. I feel good about him as a prospect and watching his game footage. He was playing in a good league. It would have been nice to see Frank play in the SL.

Chris Brickley says Nitty is a beast. I have to trust our scouts. They've been pretty on point with most of their choices.

I came away felling the same about all players mentioned. Even Isaac liked really good before thet shut him down. What are the odds the Knicks found the bust of the lottery? Im rooting for Frank though. Not going to talk until I see him against nba competition

Youngest kid in the draft, a full two years younger than Mitchell, for example, who has a different body, anyway, but yeah, let's continue with the "I wish we had this guy instead of Frenchie" threads.

I can't wait for Knick "fans" to rip him apart if he is not playing like Michael Jordan from day 1.

Yes...this is why I love being a Knicks fan.
