I think that is awesome.

We still have a ton of work to do.

Knox hasn’t even scratched the surface of his potential. Already has a sweet stroke and ideal size n length. This pick is about MAX POTENTIAL!!!

Knox has the same potential for stardom as Porter. I like his size with today's positionless ball.

Big 3, 6'9 and hopefully growing since he's 18

All I want from Knox is good man-man/switch defense and the ability to stroke it from deep. Everything else would be gravy if he can bring those 3 things.

The is a good pick. Knox was the kind of guy who probably would have been a top-5 pick next year if he stayed in school. My only concern with him is can he guard opposing 3s but they say his defense is decent.

Hahn saying Fizdale was "giddy" after the Knox workout. "He was absolutely in love with him."

Don't you mean to slam the pick and call him Beasley?

All of these players have question marks. I like his size.

Most of all, I like that our front office picked him.

I refuse to reply to brggs thread about knox and Beasley when we already have a thread on Knox. so I will respond with yes Briggs... Knox does remind me of Beasley....Eventhough I said melo and melo and beas are similar. But yes you are correct. Let's hope he doesn't smoke the same weed as beas. He already looks sleepy....lol

I love this draft pick. Knox is well worth the risk at pick #9. Love his potential upside. Very smooth looking jump shot.

Just watched a bunch of Highlight films and I see some KD tendencies.

Knox is the GOAT until proven otherwise. I'm rooting for him. I love his offensive game but worry about the rest. Hopefully Fiz can motivate him.

A quote from Knox's press conference vis SI...

"They booed Porzingis and look where he's at now ... They can chant 'Michael Porter' all they want, they got Kevin Knox"

I like that attitude.

Knox is going to be a scoring machine for us...Can shoot the 3 and has a nice floater in the lane...Fiz needs to coach him up on the defensive end and I'm confident that he will. Happy with the pick...
