I don't trust Scott Perry though :manny:

Coming from Orlando and Sacramento is nothing to brag about. And it's pretty obvious he was the one that got Mudiay here and moved Frank to SG. He was trying to get Elfrid Payton first :hhh:
:gucci: Are you serious?





:mjcry: Don’t be scaring me, mane. My mind, body, and soul can’t take this.

Kings got lucky with that top two pick. Signing George Hill, Z-Bo and Vince Carter to nearly $100 million dollar contracts combined on a rebuilding team, because you got a hard on for washed up vets is beyond comprehension.

Bear in mind that this is coming from Marc Berman but it makes perfect sense.
How the Knicks landed Emmanuel Mudiay over GM’s favorite

TORONTO — In the end, the Knicks were intrigued by a lottery-pick point guard the franchise passed on in 2015 and a lottery-pick point guard GM Scott Perry once selected in Orlando.

The Knicks were in the ballgame for both Emmanuel Mudiay and Elfrid Payton, the athletic penetrator with the high-rise hair. The Knicks wound up with Mudiay before Thursday’s trade deadline. Why not Payton?

The Knicks could never come to an agreement with Orlando that made sense. The Suns traded a 2018 second-round pick to land Payton, who immediately becomes the Suns’ starting point guard, and the deal has been hailed as a steal.

The Knicks gave whichever is the less favorable of their two 2018 second-round picks in the three-team package and Doug McDermott, whom sources say the Mavericks plan to re-sign this summer.

According to sources, Ntilikina’s skill as a pure point guard is something Mills and Perry have debated. Mills was part of the Phil Jackson braintrust that drafted Ntilikina eighth — ostensibly as a perfect Euro fit for the triangle offense that has been disbanded.

According to a source, Mills was adamant Ntilkina being untouchable at Feb. 8’s trade deadline. But Perry, concerned about Ntilikina’s penetrating prowess, pushed to add Mudiay.

At the 2017 draft, Perry was with Sacramento as assistant GM, picking fifth, and Ntilikina was not on his radar. Perry lobbied for point guard De’Aaron Fox, and the jury is out if that pick was a reach.

Looks like Frank won't spend the whole off-season in France, he's coming back May 21st.
Ntilikina was amid a series of workouts at INSEP, France’s premier performance academy. Working with him was one of the Knicks’ trainers.

Holed up in France since the season ended in mid-April, their prized 2017 lottery pick is working out daily — whether it be in his hometown Strasbourg or taking the three-hour train to Paris.

Two weeks ago, his French League team, Strasbourg, retired his No. 22 jersey in a ceremony. Not bad for a guy turning 20 in July and who played just two seasons there.

After a rookie season was met with mixed reviews, Ntilikina will make his return to the U.S. on May 21 and finally meet Fizdale. Ntilikina will play July’s summer league in Las Vegas and remain in New York the rest of the offseason, according to a source.
Meanwhile Porzingis' trainer might post on the Coli as @the taxman or @A.R.

Porzingis has conducted much of his offseason rehab in Madrid at its training facility that houses its superpower basketball and soccer clubs.

After his exit meeting, Porzingis flew to his hometown of Leipaja, Latvia, but believes he’s in good hands in Spain, where he played three seasons in the Spanish League and speaks the language fluently.

“KP is doing great in Madrid,’’ said Carlon Colker, Porzingis’ performance doctor based in Greenwich, Conn. “His aggressive rehab is at a jaw-dropping rate. In conjunction, his body is already looking beastly. By September, he’ll be almost non-recognizable with his shirt off. We’re working on increasing his lean muscle mass and also training for a functionality and ruggedness to compliment his game.’’
