Was a likely top 3 pick if he had been healthy last season.


Can't you say the same thing about Skal a couple of years ago? Or like Cliff Alexander? Or even Jahlil Okafor. Okafor was considered a better prospect going into HS than KAT was.


Was health the ONLY reason MPJ struggled?

2.5, and he came off the bench as a precaution, I'm guessing

None of those guys had health issues. And none of those guys could shoot 3s, are all were centers that can't defend the rim.
I think Chicago

is in love with Porter and is hoping he drops to them.

Fair. Interestingly enough, I think I've seen some comparisons to Gallinari with Porter Jr.

I think the Knicks will end up with Mikal Bridges when all is said and done.
Very very early  
nygiants16 : 5/18/2018 12:21 pm : link
But some reports are saying Memphis is willing to trade down...

They are right in the middle of where all the centers should go and we already know all of their decisions are made based on gasol..
Knicks fans love to shit on Gallo  
giantsfan44ab : 5/18/2018 12:21 pm : link
but getting someone who'll average ~20 PPG at #9 is a less than likely outcome. But I dont think Gallo is comparable to Porter athletically.
ANd HS rankings are  
giantsfan44ab : 5/18/2018 12:23 pm : link
intended as a projection for college, not NBA. Okafor had a better college season than KAT.
The reason porter would slide  
nygiants16 : 5/18/2018 12:23 pm : link
Is teams would be nervous to take him because they have not seen him play in a while...

He is not going to workout at the combine and my guess he only does individuals...

Teams may side with guys they have seen play recently rather than the guy who they haven't seen..

I love gallinari coming out, what hurt him was the injuries...

Knicks get a gallo type at 9 I am good
Would Jerry West trade his 2 picks for the Knicks 1?

That would be a dumb move and Jerry West usually makes smart ones.
He might really like someone.

Hey, dammit, why can't the Knicks get over on someone once every 30 years?

Problem for clippers is they are hard capped, they might want to consolidate the 1striund picks

Because they're the Knicks and they have the reverse Midas touch.

1,16, 31 for kp, do you do it?

Do you think Ayton or Doncic can be a KP level talent? Or do you think KP will face injury issues? Personally I keep KP.

Do you offer that for Kawhi if your phoenix? Maybe Josh Jackson too.

Me personally before I give kp a max contract I try to see what at least is out there
I absolutely think ayrton can be a face of the franchise  
nygiants16 : 5/18/2018 5:41 pm : link
And yes I think kp will always be hurt...

With KP coming off an injury and staring down a big contract, I might take just #1 for him....
I'd take a top 5 pick for Porzingis  
ghost718 : 5/18/2018 7:58 pm : link
Maybe less

But if you're the owner of a top 5 selection,you won't know that.
I'd do it. This injury just makes me less confident  
shockeyisthebest8056 : 5/19/2018 6:36 am : link
in the Knicks ability to keep KP long-term.

KP for basically Ayton, Lonnie Walker, and Jalen Brunson (my picks)? I'd have to pull the trigger.

No I don’t. KP has shown ability to be 2 way superstar. Unique rare talent.
