Fizzdale likes position less bball , so how about Issac bonga in the second round, a 6 '9" pg from Germany. Another ball handler that with training can develop into something good off the bench

Another ball handler that with training can develop into something good off the bench He doesn't fit position less bball at this stage other then being an oversized PG. He has trouble guarding picks, he needs the ball in his hands to be effective. Prefer Vanderbilt as a prospect. I hope for Bates-Diop or Alize Johnson at #36 followed by Vanderbilt if they are gone. Okobo would be a nice surprise if he is there as would Duval. https://vote.nba.com/en Vote for your Knicks.

I'm also leaning toward Miles Bridges with #9.

Another ball handler that with training can develop into something good off the bench 6'9"? Sounds like the next magic Johnson. If we pick up Kevin Heurter we can trade Frank and a top 50 protected second rounder for another pick this year and nab Bonga at pick 47. 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.

I still think that Porter could drop to us. We could end up with possibly the most talented player in the draft.

I think his energy and physicality would mesh well with KP. I want Carter first, but I can live with either Bridges. Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more.

Another ball handler that with training can develop into something good off the bench I do like Bonga a lot... he is very long and young and at this age already has played against grown man for 2 yrs now as a point guard. Please do not mistake him for a SF just due to his size... his game is that of a lead guard. He has a good handle and speed despite his size AND knows how to initiate plays as this is the BASIC for a PG in Europe! Since he will be there mid- to late 2nd round I think he is worth a pick if we buy another one... for 36 I would prefer a big or SF due to our roster setup at PG! |

To me the guy is still Mikal Bridges. I see Mikal, Frank and KP as the core of an elite defensive team. You start with one of the leagues best rim protectors in KP and you surround him with a couple wings who can defend 3-4 positions at a high level. Thats Frank and Mikal. The goal should be to build the best defensive team in the league. Scorers are easy to come by. Guys who can lock down multiple positions are not.

The goal should be to build the best defensive team in the league. Scorers are easy to come by. Guys who can lock down multiple positions are not. I don't watch enough college basketball to know whether the media descriptions are legit are slanted, but the descriptions of Mikal are intriguing and I wouldn't hate the pick My biggest issue is the concern that he's a catch and shoot guy, can't create his own shot -- to me that's more important than simply whether he can creat his own shot but gets to his feel for the game overall (including on D). I want more out of a SF than 3-D at the 9 spot, unless he's phenomenal on D or shooting. Seems like we're selling the slot short. (5)(5)
