What does everyone think about Francisco Garcia? I think he would be a nice player for the Knicks. The kid has a lot of heart and seems to be a great teammate who makes everyone else better. Can also shoot the 3 and a great ball handler and passer. Very versatile. Only question I have is that I'm not sure how strong he is defensively. Definitely better than Crawford though. I like his leadership qualities. Can come in right away and be a nice player. I don't even know if he'll be around by the time we pick at the end of the 1st round.

he looks like another version of trevor but with a better offensive game. i like his nasty side but like you said, i don't he'd be around for our late #1.

I like Garcia. On defense, he looks a little slow to react, and doesn't move his feet well, but on O he can shoot the rock and pass the ball. I don't get the comparison to Trevor...Garcia doesn't wow with his pure athleticism, isn't a good defender, but can actually shoot. I think he goes anywhere between 18 and 25, meaning in no mans land as far as where we pick is concerned.

Ok...I get that. Garcia is even a little skinnier I think, but he's purely an SG.

I love Francisco, he's got excellent game on offense and he plays much bigger then his 6'7 listed height. He plays excellent defense, can block shots, steal, play good perimeter D, shoots the 3ball well, good all around player. I'd love the Knicks to draft him but it looks he's going in the mid to late first round so whether or no the Knicks will have a shot at him we'll have to see.
