Knicks · Knicks wanted Reggie Jackson (page 1)

They are hating on our pick (watch the video please and check original article for further links) and I think they are misinformed with our pick but it is very interesting regarding Reggie Jackson's knee. For sure if he worked out for other teams he would have gone top 20 in my opinion.

Katz doesn’t elaborate here, but did here. Of course it makes sense to me seeing he’s the other player I would have drafted. The Thunder guaranteed Jackson as did the Celtics, as we reported weeks ago, although the Celts backed off after finding out that he wouldn’t fall to 25. That’s when they started shopping.

Interesting that Jackson’s camp and Knicks brass couldn’t come together on the information on his knee.

ps - I see OKC potentially shopping their other "pg" and Jackson being their starter, sooner than most would think. Steal.

They are not high on Iman. Their most salient point was that Iman didn't do much for improving his team. They were mediocre and he was their PG/SG leader. Sure Iman has great athletic tools, but is he a winner is the question? That is why I voted undecided in the other thread , will wait and see how he does.

They (the panel) sure get paid a lot to know nothing. I think we are all in the wrong business.

Seriously, I do agree with your underlying idea that the press isn't the final word. They are in the entertainment field and get paid to make presentations, be interesting or controversial, so people will watch/read their shows/articles.

Not right at first, but I don't doubt it. Jackson is a well seasoned PG. He is ready to give 10-15 mins on that team no problem. Westbrook just isn't that smart up stairs and it showed in the playoffs. Yeah, he is young but.

they got to the conference finals in westbrooks third season. that's pretty good. i agree it looked like westbrook and durant weren't always on the same page, but... i think it'll take a little more before they trade him, or even consider it...

though if maynor is on the block, i wouldn't mind taking a look at him.

As big of a bonehead as Westbrook was in the playoffs, they aren't letting him go.

Yeah you have to give it time to see if he sees the light. He's so talented and that team is so close. They gave the Mavs everything they could handle as a very young team.
