Last 18/19 NY Knicks season transmission: "F*** all the haters from you to SAS" See y'all in '20

[Lucha Vandross]

Thank the basketball Gods. We now have a competent organization. Knox and Mitch will be great picks.

Dumbass Lil cacs were just trying to get on camera chanting for that frail back nikka. Prolly don't know shyt about the game for real.

I Know This Season Is A Wash As Far As Wins But I’m Tired Of Losing Brehs, Why Can’t We Have Nice Things?

It’s almost over breh...

 

[RickyGQ]

The Front Office Eye creator was at summerleague and didn't give us any deep intel but his "I'm allowed to say" word on Frank was that the kid is pretty much liked league wide as a modern NBA player who can fit multiple positions. The dude just retired from modding the knicks board and I'd be surprised if he's not working for a front office at some point. As much as fans are impatient with Frank, he's the type of player GM's covet right now because you can fit him into a lot of different line-ups. He's a plug and play guy the minute he adjusts to NBA range and there's not a scout out there who sees his form and thinks his jumper won't improve. Add some weight and he'll be reasonably big enough to guard 1-3 (even some switches on 4's off wingspan); that's a big get from someone who was one of the better perimeter defenders in the league at 18/19 years old. I'm worried that he'll be the player teams demand if we want to move THJ to make the necessary space for two Max players but I really just want to watch this kid develop in blue and orange. I'd go future first over giving up Frank for a capspace move personally.

And that’s all we’ve been hearing fron Fiz on the positionless basketball he wants to play. Frank never has to be an nba all star. As long as he has a long career and is someone you know you can have on the floor in the crunchtime of a big game, he was a great pick.

Hot Takes from 2018 NBA Summer League

Bleacher Report really showing our draft love. Two of the hot takes are

Mitch will be better than Bagley and Bamba

Mitchell Robinson skipped college and the NBA combine. He didn't play organized ball for a year, and scouts hadn't seen him outside workout settings since the 2017 Jordan Brand Classic (15 points, 7-of-7 FG). They should have rolled the dice anyway.

He led all of summer league in player efficiency rating (minimum four games), and now the question is, just how big of a steal did the New York Knicks get?

Hot take: He'll be better than two Top Six bigs in Marvin Bagley III and Mohamed Bamba.

Despite missing a season's worth of action, Robinson proved his athleticism and timing haven't gone anywhere. He set a record dating back to 2004, blocking 4.0 shots per game in just 24.7 minutes, per RealGM.com.

We've already established that Bagley will have trouble in the pros. And while Bamba has the chance to be special, Robinson brings a whole new level of explosiveness, power and energy in the paint.

His 14.0 percent block rate and 21.3 rebounding percentage blew away Bamba's (9.4 percent BLK, 14.1 percent REB). He didn't take jumpers in Las Vegas, but Robinson still averaged 13.0 points on 66.7 percent from the field.

Robinson has a better chance to be Clint Capela 2.0 than Bamba does to be the next Rudy Gobert.

Knox shoulda gone top five

It looks like Kevin Knox was misused at Kentucky based on what he showed during summer league, where he averaged 21.3 points.

It became clear that he's far more threatening off the dribble than initially expected. Knox went from an off-ball role to the Knicks' featured player, and it helped illuminate strengths that were masked in college.

At 6'9", 212 pounds, Knox blends power forward size with guard skills, specifically the ability to face up and attack, shoot off the dribble and knock down threes. He's big and athletic, loaded with scoring versatility that hints at a combo-forward mismatch down the road.

And he hasn't turned 19 years old yet.

Knox went No. 9, and there will still be a handful of teams in the top eight who'll regret overlooking him as an option.

A Rookie of the Year sleeper, the Knicks' newest cornerstone is going to emerge as one of the draft's top players over others who received far more hype prior to the 2018 draft.

We talking about Frank or Timmy
