So I’m guessing knicks vs nets on Christmas day for the next 3-4yrs?
We had to tank last year cause we needed one more piece for our young core (hoping it was Zion but got a solid consolation in RJ).
lmao bro did you really compare zions level of talent to flight white and gerald greenWe will soon see if the Knciks truly are the losers in this draft.
Let's see if Zion can dribble and shoot.
Again, extraordinary leaping ability does not guarantee success in the NBA. Otherwise James White, Gerald Green, and that dude that be on You-Tube with the crazy dunks would be dominating the league.
We have to see if Zion is the better player before conceding we lost in the draft.
Julius Randle could be Zion with a shot and post-up game. Think about it.
It would be amazing if Zion has a complete game though.
Let's see how he does on Friday.lmao bro did you really compare zions level of talent to flight white and gerald green
you realize he jumps just as high or maybe higher than them with 70 more pounds of muscle on his frame while still being a teenager
he already is a better passer and ball handler than either of them.
zion's body will literally have the self destruct for him to not be successful.
I'm fine with rj barrett. 3 level scorer/playmaker potential. generally the mold of most dominant players in the league.
I’ll say this I wanted Zion but I’ve gotten more comfortable with RJ As the pick and have some expectations as well.We will soon see if the Knciks truly are the losers in this draft.

I think the media is kind of coming around on the moves and not getting the stars . First I feel like they realized that they most likely had a hand in this . And after what happened with the Celtics they have to watch this play out with kyrie and the young guysIt’s fukking wild to listen to people kill us in one breath, for not being in as good a situation as the Nets and losing out on big free agents, and in another breath, getting killed for literally doing what the nets did to better their situation. The Nets sucked for years, slowly acquiring picks and pieces. Created a young core of Russell, Levert and Allen. Signed and acquired guys like Crabbe, Dinwiddie, Harris, Dudley and Ed Davis to compliment them. And instead of tanking last season, they felt they had enough to go out and try and win some games. They literally sold Kyrie on “look what we did with Russell, imagine what we could do with you and this roster. That’s it. That’s how they beat us. And because of that, Kyrie convinced KD that that’s wear they needed to be.
We are were they were 2 years ago when they got D Lo. We had to tank last year cause we needed one more piece for our young core (hoping it was Zion but got a solid consolation in RJ). Our young core is now Barrett, Knox and Mitch. We brought in Randle to be our D Lo, a player we can go to other 4s that might be available in the future (Giannis or KAT hypothetically) and say, look what we did with him, imagine what we can do with you. But in order to win games we need to go get guys that can help us win. We went out and got our Ed davis in Bobby Portis, our Joe Harris in Reggie Bullock, our Jared Dudley in Taj Gibson. We’re hoping that one of Frank, DSJ or Eldrid Payton can be our Spencer Dinwiddie. So we can try and improve this team and get these guys a taste of the playoffs in 2 years.
Yet we’re getting killed. Mind you, if we don’t do that and put up another 20 win season, every last one of the people killing us for our signings would kill us for not making the team somewhere people want to come and play.... LIKE THE NETS.
Speechless...
This will be another circus that people will say started with delusional fans...

fam, he's a way more explosive athlete than blake....and blakes athleticism declined but he still developed to a 25 ppg scorer despite that.Let's see how he does on Friday.
Let me stress it again, it would be amazing to witness Zion be a mega-star with skills.
What do you think of Blake Griffin? After jumping over cars, he realized that jumping over players would only go so far.
We will soon see if the Knciks truly are the losers in this draft.

zion is WAY more defensively inclined, crazy motor as well.
zion weighs more right now than peak blake griffin did....
his ceiling is much higher cause he has the capability to be a more well rounded player
Nah he’s the real deal fam. Only question mark is his longevity. But at worst he’s gonna be a Uber athletic rebounder. Right away. He has great instincts and feel for the game.
As far as us losing this draft i don’t think that’s the case. I’m just talking about the perception we can sell. RJ could very well be better than Zion in 10 years. But how well we fair in the next 2 is more tied to how good he can be right away, than anybody else on this roster.
