Start at 2:00 of this video showing Darko Milicic's drafting by the Pistons.

The confidence level is strikingly different between Darko & Pro Z...

Darko definitely had the tools, but if you are attempting to get into the NBA and fukk shyt up...That mental state needs to be strong.

Prozingas seems to have that. I'm just hoping. I CAN NOT wait until summer league. :lupe:

So right now the roster is
Starters:
Calderon
?
Melo
Porzingas
?
Bench:
Grant/Galloway/Larkin
Antetokoumpo
Early/Wear
Labeyrie
Amundson/Aldrich

We have the money to fill two holes with good players and if Kristaps can bulk up and not get hurt this year...we have a potential playoff team brehs

I think the fact that the Knicks were able to get Grant actually makes Porzingis a good pick. You picked up the player with the highest upside in the draft at that point and you were still able to pick up one of the top point guards in the draft too. And let's be real, outside of the top 3, the rest of the draft is really a crap shoot. Even the top 3 isn't guaranteed. Look at the best young players in the league now. Most of them weren't the most highly touted in the draft anyway.

Nah, they Shump & Hardaway both had real solid rookie seasons, which gave a lot of Knicks fans some hope. Then for whatever reason, they never developed. I still think we gave up a little to quickly on Tim though.

Which is why I don't understand people drinking the Porzingis juice. Ya'll didn't have the patience to let Tim develop, but ya'll expect to have the patience with Porzingis who is obviously a project.

I don't understand. THjr was showing no signs of improvement, no signs of bettering his defense. He had some hops but couldn't finish for shyt, couldn't get to the line and didn't even try, and was content with being nothing more than a chucker. He's garbage. AND we upgraded his spot. Porzingis is a gamble but if we didn't pick him he would have been gone before 6, guaranteed, and E.M. and Winslow fell some spots, there's something there we don't know. Nobody is drinking the juice, just saying it wasn't a bad pickat the end of the day so we have no reason to be upset.

SAS says Melo is pissed at the pick because its clearly a "post Melo" pick. Also while SAS didn't say Melo wanted a trade it might be a possibility. SAS also said Monroe isn't sure he wants to come to NY (probably because it looks like they are transitioning to post Melo).

If Melo wants Out.....fukk him lets go full rebuild:camby:
