A couple of articles talking about talking about the coaching staff and the Knicks philosophy towards second draft players. https://nypost.com/2019/01/10/benching-behind-mario-hezonjas-sudden-breakthrough/ https://www.reddit.com/r/NYKnicks/comments/aewpiy/ian_begley_can_the_knicks_cash_in_on_other_teams/?st=JQSKWDQB&sh=fc8e0cca

If Mudiay had went to SMU he probably would've been a top five pick and I remember some thought he should have been the #1 overall. This guy has the raw talent to be a star in the league. I think he chose poorly by going to China and hadn't really started to develop himself until recently. I think Mudiay and Fiz work well together. I think we have so much more to gain by retaining him and developing him than we do by letting him walk. It has happened throughout NBA history where teams give up on lotto picks that are PGs and then become stars. i would rather bet on Mudiay than, say, Burke because Mudiay measures well and isn't a shoot first PG (I know they are more fashionable now but I prefer my points be good at distributing the ball instead of shooting it)

we have one legit starter on this roster, and that's KP.
knox has the potential, but he looks more Al harrington, then KD ES
