NFT: NBA Draft Lottery.

SFGFNCGiantsFan : 5/17/2022 7:59 pm
Anak started a thread earlier, but I searched & couldn't find it. Anyways, Rockets, Magic, & Pistons all have 14% odds of getting #1 pick.

Knicks have 2%-ish odds of jumping up to 1, 2, 3, or 4. They have a 77% chance of staying @ #11. There's also a 13%-ish chance they fall back to #12, which would be so Knicks like.

Are we still paying the price for getting Ewing in '85? You'd think one year we'd move up significantly.

Kendrick Perkins is pretty good on

Watch Knicks end up at like 13th  
Mike in NY : 5/17/2022 8:06 pm : link
With 2 teams behind us picking 1 and 2 so if we were only a smidge better we’d have one of those picks
Bilas just compared Smith to KD

Lebron and his friends lover. Strokes him too much for extending his career.

We stay at 11.

Of course. FML.
So who are the players that will be there at 11

Traded when we go star hunting.
Any time the Knicks don't move down in the lottery I call it a win

Another #1 pick for Orlando.  
bceagle05 : 5/17/2022 8:25 pm : link
Must be nice.
Magic win #1 pick...  
SFGFNCGiantsFan : 5/17/2022 8:26 pm : link
4th time. They've been around since when, 88? 89? Meanwhile we haven't won it since 85. UFB.
Magic should look to trade  
GNewGiants : 5/17/2022 8:27 pm : link
Carter and Mamba and even Anthony.

Build around Suggs, Wagner, and Holgrem.

Traded but most likely for future assets, maybe a team trying to trade 11 and their own pick this year for a top pick. I don't see the Knicks trading it all for a star this year, would rather have future assets
Smith should go

If they do, don't wait until the last second to take a shit deal.

For the Knicks. Also likes Duren (if he falls to 11) and Jovic.

SF, how good is Smith? I’m not that familiar with him. From what I’ve seen he seems to be a great passer and can sink 3’s like crazy. Great shooting form.

Smith Jr. is a stud. I would take him #1.

I really hope so. I think this is the best path for the Knicks. They’d have competition though.
Yes, a bold move is needed.

East is already loaded, and Detroit and Orlando are stockpiling young talent that could soon leave us in the dust, too.
At 11????  
Carl in CT : 5/17/2022 9:56 pm : link
Well I guess get 11 names and you will get one correct?
Off top of my head….. (in no order!
1) smith
2) Banchero
3) Holmgren
(Tier)
4) Ivey
5) sharpe (kid from Kentucky)
6) Murray
(tier)
7) mathiurin
8) Daniel’s
9) Davis
10) Duren (Mepmphis)
11) Griffin (Duke)

Anyone else have a guy who belongs and who should get knocked out? Not a bad 11. We could get someone decent.
Maybe  
Carl in CT : 5/17/2022 9:59 pm : link
Agbaji or TY TY (who has been dropping)? After that (other than UConn) I can’t think of anyone.
Not sure if

Seeing the talent on display in these playoffs has been eye-opening for me.

Once the smoke clears on this draft, you could argue the Knicks have less talent than anyone team in the East outside of maybe Washington.

We need to nail about five tough decisions this summer - Randle, Mitchell Robinson and this draft pick at the top of the list.

A long time ago, I came to the conclusion that the Knicks were never going to win a championship in my lifetime. Game 6 in Houston, like 2 weeks after my hs graduation, will likely be the closest they ever come.

Knicks need that main guy, they have good young pieces and they have cap flexibility and drsft picks but they need that main guy..

They lost so many games last year because they didnt have a closer...

If the Knicks can get a top guy and keep 2 of Iq, Rj or Toppin and they will be fine
The knicks have too many young players and picks now  
Heisenberg : 5/18/2022 9:03 am : link
Basically have to make a trade soon. I'm expecting Donovan Mitchell, tbh.

Mitchell and on a slightly smaller scale Ayton..

Also i am keeping my eye on Lavine, i think at the end of the day hr resigns with Chicago BUT i think he can be had with a good pitch
I kinda feel like Lavine may head to the lakers

They're going to need a bunch of help making that happen and they don't really have much that other teams want. Not saying it can't happen, but someone is going to have to value a couple of Laker picks in a decade or so.

I love the its Dolan's fault answer, so what did Dolan do now that it is his fault?

It is not always Dolans fault, you can blame him for hating the media and being a sensitive scumbag, but he spends money and willing to spend money, he has stayed out of the way which everyone wanted...this is on Rose, Wes, Aller and Perrin..its on them to get it right
Dolan  
Carl in CT : 5/18/2022 10:04 am : link
Has always been the excuse. I believed it before not now looking back. We traded most picks for washed up vets. When we did draft we didn’t draft well. We let so many all stars passed us bye and we got garbage. We never attracted free agents. Look at Presti in OKC 17 first rounders in 5 years? We never tore it down like we needed to. That being said we also have had no luck! Is Dolan an asshole? Yup. I don’t recall him ever not spending money to help win. I like our CAP guy I just don’t see enough out of this (suppose dream team front office) to make stuff happen. We need to do something!!!!!
Just get Randle out of here, please.

It starts on ends with the GM/President of Basketball operations. If you want to blame Dolan it's where or if he's receiving advice on who to head up the Knicks operations and then, being able to stay out of player transactions (e.g., the Melo trade). From Scott Layden to Isiah Thomas, to Glen Grunwald, to Steve Mills to Phil Jackson to Steve Mills to Scott Perry. Not a bunch of winners in that group as far as GM operations goes.
