The main reason I was completely fine reaching for Kira Lewis at 8 was because there wouldn't be guarantees at PG any other way. Trade demands were too crazy and FA contracts got wild, so we're getting Elfrid Payton back (albeit on a more reasonable contract). I still don't mind the Obi pick, but I'm a little annoyed we passed on Cassius Winston and other options with 33.

I actually don't hate the move for Noel at all. It's a one year deal for a serviceable back-up without an overpay. Maybe you get a second rounder for him at the deadline.

One thing to keep in mind is that the Knicks still have a lot of cap to spend before they even hit the salary floor. I'm not saying they'll do something dramatic, since this offseason looks like a punt. But the roster's about to be full, so it'll be interesting to see what Rose has in mind.

Kira nor Winston will be starting games we would still need to sign a veteran PG.

Also brehs we drafted Immanuel Quickley :mjlol:
