According to the way all the draft sites say at press time.....

I'm hoping Charlie Villenueva with the Knicks early pick and Channing Frye with the late pick.

Guess: Petro and Sheldon Williams

Or a talented PG...

My picks: Hakim Warrick (if avb.) and Garcia or talented PG.

if we can get garcia we have to take him, be I say keep away from anyone lacking fire regardless of talent. guys like taft. I don't care how talented they look, if they don't have the desire and toughness to play basketball at the lower levels, they don't belong on our team.

dream draft without trading up:

a lot of people are saying now that bogut will drop, cuz the bobcats are taking paul and a lot of the other will be looking for a franchise player regardless of how long they take. so guys like unpronoucable lithuanian and fran vasquez will go aheadof him. I think the only worry we have is from GS who don't need onything BUT a center. I mean were talking about a starting lineup of bdiddy, jrich, dunleavy(who I think is very underrated) murphy and bogut. geez!! but if he gats past GS, it think bogut will fall to us. and if as people are saying, that most gms think that garcia is too raw, hopefully we can pick him up with our late pick. if isiah can do that, I real will start believing in miracles.

I wouldn't mind a SF if he's the best player available but then we'd really have to hope that Ariza can be a starting SG which I don't think he will be because once he bulks up he will definitely be a SF or We better go out and get a real SG like stackhouse. I don't want to see Jamal Crawford and his 6'5'' 185lbs frame as our SG for years. I want him to be the combo guard of the bench for 30mins.

if we dont get the first three picks, ill offer both picks for Curry:>)

If the Knicks keeps their picks then I would like to see either:

1st pick: Taft, Marvin Williams (if he comes out), or Villinueva.

2nd pick: Jarrett Jack (but I don't think he'll fall that far),
Andre Blatche

The Knicks need a power forward

I'm looking at either (without ideally trading up to around 17-20 with those 2 late picks...)

I like Taft, Joey Graham, Wayne Simien, or Petro with the first pick...

Jarret Jack, Gilchrist,or Villanueva with the second pick...

However if Zeke plays the longshot and thinks Hughes or Ray Allen (who I DON'T want) can be ours, I think he may trade down so he can grab a trio of Petro (If Taft doesn't slip to us at 6 or wherever), Simien(or Graham, or Villanueva), and Jarret Jack (or Gilchrist), not necessarily in that order.

Basically I am saying unless a big man worth a middle lotto pick slips to us, Zeke will trade down and acquire another pick to get players that are tough and fit our weaknesses.

I think this might come into play too.....Does Isiah think he can get Hughes or Ray allen? Larry Hughes might be the best shooting guard in the league this year at least. If Isiah feels he can get one of these guys then the Knicks options change.
Looking at Washington they might want to slide Arenas over to the 2 slot and move Steve Blake up....especially if they can get a player that they really want. Stranger things have happened......

Ennyspree Are you insane, seriously you are going to waste a pick a player that isn't even great in college he can't handle the ball has no range from outside, can't great his own shot, is not strong in the post, and is not mature

Jarret Jack would be a nice late pick, because he is gritty and tough and can play some point for us, Villaneuva is not an NBA player, Chris Taft is garbage he is athletic and 7 feet tall and can't dominate anyone.......

I still like Warrick he dominated in the big east and he rebounds the ball, getting 10 boards against the UCONN front line is pretty good, Wayne S, Garcia possible late, Frye reminds me of Loren Woods too much
