Funny thing about Squid is that all of his players would have been drafted without 1 second of coaching from him.

I'm catching up on DVR and just saw this interview. I'm not sure anyone could come across any less authentic. He's so full of it it's amazing. Wish she held strong and didn't say she believed him.

i've said that for years and i get so much for it... not so much just drafted but lottery picks... no one has developed

At least they rebound. You saw how WCS averaged like 6 over 40 minutes

But hey they'll need his PNR defense in the West.

I'm not a WCS fan, but he averaged 10.2/40 in college. No idea where you're getting 6 from.
 
That's why Harrell should have declared after last year when he was a near lock for lottery. The Harrison twins were in better position after their freshmen year as well.

The guy is just the worst.

He is just so full of . After the Camby situation erupted, I watched a Squid press conference where he was asked "Didn't you notice Camby wearing all that gold?" And Squid said something like how was he to know it was real and "I thought it was...whaddya call it...zirconia!" And no one calls him on it.
 
Draft over. Surprised Frazier and Alexander didn't get drafted.


What a fall from grace for Alexander. From top 5 high school recruit, to disappointing year at Kansas, to undrafted one and done.

DeAndre Jordan and Tyson Chandler don't have an offensive game aside from dunks, either.

I'm too lazy to look it up right now, but how do WCS's measurables compare to those guys? I think your point is valid, though, because it seems to me center is the one position you can get away with using exclusively as a rim-runner.

It's just that I've seen Stein billed as a four, and if you're a four, I think you need more to your game if for no other reason than that you're catch radius is - theoretically - less.
 
3 things I took away from draft....
1)Knicks continue to break my heart
2)Coach Cal proves he can't coach w the talent he gets
3)Kansas amazes me how few players it sends and develop for NBA with all the high recruiting classes
 
As a Knicks fan, I personally love the Porzingis pick. Kid can be an absolute stud. Best talent available at that point. Didn't expect Phil to do it, but was happy he did. Getting Grant for Hardaway Jr. was a nice move as well.
 
Am I missing something on D'Angelo Russell? Turns the ball over a lot, doesn't shoot well from the field, isn't crazy athletic...

Knicks need to commit to a full rebuild if they are drafting a project at #4. Porzingis is at least 2-3 years away from putting on proper PF/C weight to defend the post. I wonder if this pick signals an upcoming trade of Melo for future draft picks. I can only hope - I've grown tired of being forced to root for this Syraloser.

I hope this is the case. He is a one dimensional role player (scoring). Granted the team sucked, but if he was a true superstar, they wouldn't have had the worst record in the pethotic east.

What kind of analysis is that? The guy missed 42 games with an injury and was playing injured in most of the games that he did play. Plus he didn't play any games after the all-star break.

I don't understand all the Kaminsky love. Don't get me wrong, I like him and hope he'll be a solid pro. But he's also the kind of over-celebrated college guy that people have hated in the past. Is he more likable because of his throwback style game or his improvement story or because he looks like a chump but plays like a champ?
I don't think he'll be an all star, but I see solid 12yr career, a winner.

He's kind of the opposite of the guys who come out of Duke. Wisconsin is a good program, but is still seen as kind of an underdog. Everyone was rooting for them vs UK, and Duke, thus, they were pulling for Frank. If we had just gotten 4 years of constantly hearing about him, because he was playing for Duke, or Carolina, we'd hate him too.

Not a Knicks fan, and the Porzingis pick was bad. You don't pick a project there, because you can't afford to miss. There are much safer picks there, including a guy like Mudiay who still is a super high-ceiling player. Porzingis is not an NBA-level starter right now. Maybe he is later, but maybe he isn't.

The move for Grant was good, but I don't know if he's athletic enough to be a full-time PG in the NBA. We'll see.
