If the rumors are true I'm not mad at them for targeting Knox. Knox always came off as a bigger Kelly Oubre. Oubre is lowkey a nice player that any team could use, he's just stuck behind Porter who works better besides Beal/Wall as a 3&D player.

Also at 6'9 and 7'0 wingspan, Knox has Legit SF size, which has been an issue at the spot since Melo left. Plus due to his age he has room to grow.

I’m coming around to it. Hopefully Fiz can light a fire under his ass and make him reach his potential...
My main concerns with Knox is that i don’t feel he has an elite skill at all. I don’t see “Elite Scorer” when i look at him. Mikal has the potential to have elite defense. Miles has elite athleticism and an nba body already. If Knox was a bit more athletic/explosive or was a better rebounder to be a stretch four i’d be a lot more comfortable with the pick. Him still being 18 is the most intriguing thing about him honestly.
Exactly how I feel about Knox, I was initially bullish on him (Pause) but he has that Wiggins passiveness about him. I'm not sure if that's his temperament or if that's something he'll grow out of but yeah, the Knicks can't go wrong with either of the 3. For me, it's between Miles and Knox.

I'm on the phone and just about to go into the gym... But would one of y'all niiggas please hit up Fiz's wife's IG and check her latest post... I'll try to post it later if it hasn't been put up yet... :shaq:

My bad, Knickas.... I just went to her page, and I think Fiz made her take down the second pic :russ: it was a pic of her bent over backing that thang up on him at a Manhattan restaurant (his birthday was yesterday)

Let's relive history.


I wonder who that was. :troll:

Draft night

My Posse's On Broadway: Official NY Knicks 2016-2017 Season Thread

It was a mix between Isaac, Monk or Frank.

Some cringe worthy replies in that thread.

frank is 100% the right pick - malik monk is gonna be trevor ariza.. we good for real... lets just pray phil does not sign any rotational players and doesnt trade porzingis and we good...

lets tank hard and ill see u all next year... no one said this would be easy

He's not lazy. He just doesn't know what to do sometimes.

A few of us had Mitchell as our second and third favorite prospect at the time. I think @storyteller and someone else wanted Phil to trade Melo for some a pick and draft Mitchell. I liked Mitchell too, his floor was an athletic 3 and d guy who was an okay ball handler and okay at creating his own offense. None of us predicted him breaking out like he did last year, but we saw value in him.

My dream draft was Frank at 8 and then acquire Detroit's pick (12) to draft Mitchell and pair the two. It was based on getting Detroit to take Lee which was unrealistically overvaluing that contract to be fair. We def had a crew that saw Mitchell as the second guy on the list though. DSJ's medical weirdness turned a lot of heads off and the next player talked about was Monk who a good chunk of us pegged as not worth it (SG in a PG's body).
