Haven't really followed Porter, bit scouting reports say he's a questionable athlete. Have you watched him much? He looks like he needs to work on his body. Do you think that will make a difference with his athleticism? Is he deceptively long like KOQ? I might like him as a possible early second rounder if we can't pick up one of the top bigs in the lottery. 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.

But he can shoot the 3 and put the ball on the floor. If he had all those things you mentioned he would be a top 5 lotto pick. He is a guy with rare combination of skills who Knicks should look to mold to their liking. To me it looks like he has good feet though to guard stretch 4s even while looking pudgy. Not a position less defender but isn't to slow to close out the shooter. Def needs to work on his body. But that is probably the easiest thing to improve. KP is a work in progress passer & post player. Porter looks like an inside outside player who can pass very well & attack a close out which will create more scoring or passing opportunities for him. Only a freshman. Ideally would want a 3 man rotation at PF/C with KP, defensive anchor rebounder finisher, unique inside outside passer like Porter. Which would be 2 strong compliments to KPs game. I like the way Nova molds their players. From Hart last season to Mikal & Brunson. They all form NBA bodies and games. Brunson is also son of former Knicks scrub. Which means he is gonna ball out in the NBA. That's usually how it goes. That Frank/Hardaway, Williams/Hutchinson wing combination could be lethal. The mix of length, gunning, & ball moving. And Hutchinson may be the perfect wing to pair Frank with when the plays PG. Since he has point forward attributes. https://vote.nba.com/en Vote for your Knicks.

Im on board with going after Aaron Holiday--I had him in my priority Chicago pick before but I think hes going late 1. A smart PG with pedigree and a proven 3 point gun from the PG position with toughness.
RIP Crushalot😞

Obviously his play is starting to catch up with people, so he is likely a 1st round pick now, making it unlikely we will have anyway to get him, because we obviously aren't using our lottery pick. |

Aaron Holiday played one of the worst games of basketball I've seen a starting point guard play in the NCAA tournament last night.

Knicks have a decent chance at the 7th or 8th spot IMO. Here are the remaining winnable games. Maybe and outside chance at #6.
9 - NY: 24-44 ( Chicago, Orlando ) Orlando could jump up if with a streak of 6 games in a row against bottom 10 teams. PURE KNICKS LOVE

A smart PG with pedigree and a proven 3 point gun from the PG position with toughness. Holiday has shot up to 16 on ESPN's big board. I was hoping he'd be around in the second-round too. He still might by the time everything is said and done. Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more. More is better and twice as much is good too.
