I've never wanted to draft a PG as much as I do now.

I love RJ, though so I'm not out here wishing we drafted Ja. Best luck to him and the Grizz.

That being said, if this season continues to flood like the Titanic, my eyes are ONLY gunning for a PG.

We could still pick up a point guard come January.
Let's just put up hope that Dennis Smith Jr. plays like he played the beginning of last year when he had 19 pts, 13 assist against the spurs.

These prospects seem so close in talent level so far. This might be one of those drafts where the best player emerges cause of where he was drafted to and not where on the board he was drafted.

I don't care that we're gonna lose, I just hope RJ and Knox get 20+ points each.

An Edwards/RJ backcourt would be dope

An Edwards/RJ backcourt would be dope

they'd be a rough 1/2 for sure*

Not sure about Edwards as a shooter, but what would be dope and could be an evolution to the game is if we had 2 bully ass backcourt guys and shooters in the front court, so Knox and a shooter for a 4 to spread the court ands one big, bully ass guards on the perimeter. That's be tough to guard and our bigs being shooters would open up the lanes for bully ball by our guards.

I like it.

Took 2 blowout losses out of 6 games before the majority gave up on this team. I remember when we used to be a better fanbase.

No Blake, Jackson or Rose. Morris and Kennard will be the keys to the Pistons offense. Fiz needs to win this game. Say what you want about the talent but we're facing the Pistons' 4th string PG as a starter and the star Forward they run their offense through is out too.

Nobody paying u no mind storyteller. They saw the 3-5 record and chalked this up as a loss already



I'll give up if Fiz either is still running this Morris/Randle starting lineup for months even after we've been losing (which I don't anticipate) or if he runs a starting lineup with only one of them and we are still losing games badly. Does this team still need more pieces? Absolutely. But they also still need to work on their chemistry because half of them are new to the team. We need to stop forgetting that

I admit, I feel like a Debbie Downer ass Knicks in regards to my optimism.

I'll try to be a better Knick fam.

I think it could work

1) Edwards has said he sees himself as a PG and that's the position he is playing this season
2) Edwards' jumper looks wet and his ability to get to the rim is explosive. Check out his college debut highlights



If Edwards' jumper is legit, an Edwards/RJ back court could be special
Complete bully ball against other back courts

Nice pass from Morris to Mitch

Randle still looks like poor man's Kanter out there

 

[ikbm]

I dont mind randle barrelling into mismatches. my problem is him barrelling into 7 footers and double teams

Offensive rebounds and soft touch
