Draft is only 3 days away. Might not be the most eventful night for the knicks as #3 should be a lock and we dont pick again until #55. Id love to see us grab an extra pick or two and thats probably doable in the 2nd round.
Also a positive article about how the knicks handled the AD situation.

And it does seem the knicks do have interest in Randle, although im curious if that was started by BBI cause this was def the first place i saw it, lol.
have they officially waived Lance yet? If not, it's still him. He's like the Jared Jeffries of this era...
Lakers-Bucks 2019-20 NBA Finals.
Write it down.
Literally zero chance of this happening

is the longest tenured Knick. Wow.

There was a report that the knicks planned to waive him, but nothing official
I'm not sure Frank makes it thru Thursday.
RJ Barrett's per-game averages in the six games Zion Williamson missed last season:

They, of course, did not get the No. 1 pick in the draft the New Orleans Pelicans landed it in a stunning jump in the lottery. The Knicks got the third overall pick.
Durant so heavily rumored to be joining the Knicks that Newsday's Steve Popper described the feeling among league executives as "fait accompli" tore his Achilles in the Finals, likely keeping him out of the entire 2019-20 season.
Irving now seems more interested in joining the Brooklyn Nets, according to various reports. He recently changed his representation to Roc Nation, an agency with ties to the Nets.
Davis was traded to the Los Angeles Lakers on Saturday. According to The Athletic's Shams Charania, the Knicks did not include second-year players Kevin Knox and Mitchell Robinson, two of their best assets, in offers to the Pelicans.

I'm not sure but he shot 50% from the field despite a higher usage rate.

Barrett has that alpha mentality which will compensate for whatever deficiencies he has now at 18. I just wish he was a little more twitchy and explosive.
I am sick of watching Frenchie whos afraid to do anything and Knox who played like he was in a rec league game last year.

Darius Garland will conduct a last-minute workout in Tarrytown with the New York Knicks tomorrow, a source told ESPN. Garland is in serious consideration for the No. 3 pick. Minnesota, Boston, Chicago are teams looking at potentially trading up to No. 4 with Garland in mind.
Seems late in the game for a smokescreen. Probably for due diligence should someone come in with a great offer.

Yes, but you can put the bet in multiple times and at different books. They set limits low on bets like this because it becomes apparent right away when someone has inside info. So yeh I would read a lot into this.
I realize a lot of fans have already walked RJ down the aisle, but I wouldnt hang up the phone given the Pels war chest.
I would think. A pick in the 11-20 range?
Barrett not working out for any other team tells me that the Knicks have given some signal that they're taking him at 3 if he's there and this happening at the last minutes means it likely has something to do with whatever New Orleans is up to.

Source: The Atlanta Hawks have been aggressive exploring trades packaging the No. 8 and 10 picks to move up in the draft. Their offer to the Knicks for the No. 3 pick was apparently rebuffed. The Pelicans are considering the possibility of trading the No. 4 pick for 8+10.

What do you do with DSJ if you draft Garland? Flip him for another pick?
I would think. A pick in the 11-20 range?
DSJ's trade value may be even lower than that right now.
If true,sounds like you can expect a very safe selection from the Knicks.Maybe someone will sense it and jump ahead of them,just like what used to happen to the Giants.
Plus small guys are generally a defensive liability in the era of positionless basketball.
The Atlanta Hawks have been aggressively trying to move up in the draft by offering a trade package including the No. 8 and 10 picks, according to ESPNs Jonathan Givony.
The Knicks apparently rebuffed the offer for the No. 3 pick, per Givony, but the Pelicans are considering the possibility of trading the No. 4 pick for the Hawkstwo top-10 picks.

Not surprising. The Draft falls off a cliff from the top-3 (4, if you count Garland)
side note: I really despise that the draft is before FA.

We've seen this movie before. Mozgov got 64Mil!
I really like Culver but it would take a lot for me to move down to 4. And 8/10/17 isnt cutting it to get to 3.
Im starting to get excited about Barrett. And hes on the next Boardroom with Kleiman and Jay Williams...
