:ehh: Breh is spitting facts. You want a guy that fits thisteams drafting modus operandi check out Jalen Wilson.

At some point, if these guys want to draft a star, they can't pass up talent over character concerns. Especially with those low-risk late picks. They got Mitch by ignoring character concerns and a complete lack of tape.

To be fair Mitch’s character concern was he was really loyal to his family. They drafted him to the second round on a four year team contract with only two years guaranteed. He was arguably the best contract based on cont to production for the final two years of his contract whenever he was healthy.

Edmoni’s character concerns implies he likes to look for trouble. If he does that in NY trouble will find him. So the question is, is he talented enough to risk him causing trouble, and I don’t think he is. If the Knicks were to grab him I think it would be in the second round on a contract similar to what they gave Mitch.

I have one. They're more talented than us?
That's not an excuse. That's just a fact. I just want them to play competitively and not roll over...especially on defense.

That's basically what I'm advocating for. Bring the kid in low risk and see what Johnnie Bryant can do with him.
