With limited looks at him he reminds me of Jaren Jackson Jr. I’m not big on drafting a rim runner high but he can shoot, block shots and seems to have a nice offensive package. He could be the compliment to Mitchell Robinson that this team needs. The question becomes do we use a high draft pick on a center. |

The knicks have been superstar hunting for a verry long time, would this front office consider trading up to get the top pick or number 2 to get either Victor or Scoot. A jump to the top two might equal a kitchen sink type package of multiple 1st round picks and young players if the other team has cap space.

And no way Knicks have the assets to trade into the top 5 anyways. But you can’t move a ton of picks for scoot in case he maxes out as a player only as good or slightly better than Brunson. |

I think the top #2 are outside their reach, but #3 going forward could be on the table depending on if a team wants one of the Knicks youth and pick heavy package.

He’s a senior so the drives to the paint and rebounding has to be looked at as him having a physical advantage, but the shooting and creation could be real. He’s been adding to his game every season and is holding up under the pressure of being the team’s star. The algorithm gives and the algorithm takes away

We've seen this scenario play out before with guys like Bane and Hart. 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.

Would it be worth it to move up to #3 to grab Thompson, whose looking like he's the next available prospect after Scoot? I'm leaning Anthony Black at the Knicks current draft slot, tho I think he'll be just beyond their reach. Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more.

Being a wing heavy draft is fine because it’s a wing league. Lots of teams go with lineups with 3-4 wings on the floor at the same time |

Is the dropped off from the #3 pick that huge where it's worth it to give up a load of picks to move up? I think the team will be able to pick up a decent player without needing to move up. Could be wrong,but I'm not sure Amen Thompson, the consensus #3, is worth that investment. Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more. More is better and twice as much is good too.

Really think we need a surefire stud vs adding lots of very good players and hoping one develops in excess to their draft position. We kinda suck at picking 1-10 so the higher up we get the more likely we don't draft another Knox, Frank, etc... why not package our pick 10-14, dallas pick 11-17 and a future pick to move up to #5-7? We don't 3 more pretty good players as much as we need one future star/leader right?

Like, we could trade up anywhere into the top 10 picks and get a really good player |

Brandon Miller fits the bill and is a guy we might be able to realistically trade up for |

Looks a lot better. Before he was just a raw 6'11" with talent. Now he looks like basketball player who plays with purpose
