Anthony Jet Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 I don’t follow the draft, haven’t really watch the nba in 15 years maybe 20. But didn’t they change the draft lottery this year? I remember reading that if they used last years strategy the knicks would’ve had a much better shot at the 1st pick or am I making this up 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonderboy Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 This is why you don’t send a former number one pick who didn’t win a championship his entire career to be your representative in the draft lottery. They would’ve been better off sending some guy who won lotto . 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prime21 Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 Zion obviously #1 but the draft is 3 deep. The Knicks will get a stud in Morant or Barrett. Sent from my iPhone using JetNation.com mobile app 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Harris Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 Third overall pick worked out for us Maybe they package that #3 to the Pels for AD. But everybody is saying that KD and Kyrie are a lock to the Knicks. Put RJ Barrett at SG. PG: kyrie irving SG RJ Barrett SF: Kevin Knox PF: KD C : Mitchell Robinson top bench: Dennis Smith jr, frank nkitilinka - thats solid AF, easily the best knicks team since Ewing and maybe ever 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think he’s anything special offensively, saw him miss a key free throw with their last game on the line.

The best NBA talent was 2 deep in this draft, it’s poetic that the Knicks land the 3rd pick Yep. Coach K turned to Barrett, not Zion, in crunch time again and again. And Barrett was something like 0/9 from the field in those situations. And I don't get why he projects to be a shooting guard coming off a season where he shot .308 from the perimeter despite tons of open looks provided by Zion. He's a worthy # 3 pick but he's not a special talent like Zion or Morant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonehands Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 Most Knick fans are not very good at math. The way the odds were stacked, we were very fortunate to get a top 3 pick in a three person draft. 14% chance of the number 1 pick is basically a 1 in 8 chance or the same chance as a starting pitcher getting a hit in a big spot in a national league baseball game.

In an era of "positionless basketball", where a 280 lbs. guy has the handles of a top-end PG, Zion isn't a match for the NBA? Zion's skills are absolutely what the NBA looks for. He'll probably lose some weight to get down to 265 or 260 and end up a point-forward rather than a point-center. Barrett is a shooting guard who can't make 3's. Good luck with that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
