Im not counting on Noah and I think Oquinn is a goner next year--so we need a 4/5 who is 6-9 245 who can play basketball. Also Im not sure about KP's durability.

Were going to need a little more size and skill from the 3 long term. I like Beasley for this years team as a 6th or 7th man--but hes signed to a 1 yr contract and it will be up in the air what he brings.

I think SG were all set unless we find a player who is just dominant in the draft and happens to play 2 guard.

Willy has good court vision and should assert himself more. Noah in limited minutes can distribute, but I agree not to count on him too much. If there is a remote chance of making the playoffs, a relatively healthy Noah would be important. Would rather limit his minutes, even if it doesnt look like he needs it.

As long as the ball keeps moving, they'll be OK.

Since you think the Knicks are winning "25 games tops," one of those players should be available via a good draft pick.

mills doesn't want that type of player, so even there were 10 available, according to him, he would have still picked frank

lol, thank you

I still think it's bS and he's just saying that to not make phil and gains not look like idiots.

Truth be told, Phil never actually went to see frank play, he sent mills and gaines, and some other scouts. Just like kP, phil took their word that this is the kid that would solve our pg problems in the triangle.

Mills and JH keeps saying they will use a little triangle, is basically saving face for phil, out right abandonment would mean nobody was on board with that sht but phil and rambis in the 1st place.

Yet if Frank become a stud. A fews yrs later you will be claiming that the pic was a no brainer and that Frank was "your guy" since the Knicks drafted him.

Ball dominant guards come along every year. Players like Frank are harder to come by. And even if Frank's flaws all becomes real in terms of penitration. He would still be the perfect compliment too any ball dominant guard we would acquire in the future. Jist like Kidd was able to elevate Feltons PG responsibilities.

Franks skill set would allow you to have a Rose and not torpedo your offense. With KP, Willy, Frank. If Frank isnt a stud PG. Any PG we acquire would have a he'll of a cast to play with to make his job easier I will tell you that.

Unless I'm misreading the tweet, it in no way says Mills doesn't want a "player who controls the dribble who can make plays"

Only a moron concludes because he endorses picking Ntilikina this draft that he doesn't want that type of player ever.

The Knicks brought back THJ partly because he can get out on the break and drive in half court too. Penetration shouldn't be a major problem for this team. Nitty isn't a blur type but should be able to get to the rim off screens and cuts. This is still gonna be a Ball and Player Movement Offense. More Dribble Handoffs, Cuts and Down Screens than ISO PG Breakdown offense.

he's not going to be around long enough to see any of these players develop if they don't start winning, like this season

Well, that has nothing whatsoever to do with your claim about what type of players Mills doesn't want. That was still stupid.

THJ could be hitting his stride. There's enough positive going on with this team to be optimistic about the coming season.

Frank is going to be a Kawhi-level star. He might be very good even in his first season. We are blessed to have him.
