I'll take him. That's going right along with my thread saying we needed a Deadeye SG who can catch and shoot and doesn't have to hold and then dribble the ball just the score. No more breaking the play and only going ISO with JR. We needed a real SG. Legit 6-6, with length and NBA ready body.
dont like the name, but phuckit. Was that our one and only draft pick or did we purchase any 2nds? What about our point guard need for speed? or our ever injured frontline?
maybe this pick is for insurance for JR and we don't have to throw money at him. I guess we gotta wait and see

Do we have a 2nd rounder this year?
We could use Mitchell, Amare is toast
Could've just as easily been Reggie Bullock. We're at the crap shoot portion of the draft.

I'm tired of the analysts harping on Amare and Melo not being able to play with eachother on offense. That's not the problem. The problem with them playing together is their D and that's negated if Amare is coming off the bench
Well to be fair our frontcourt that is the most expensive in history is under .500 when they play together
Knicks at 24 and dont go BPA.
I guess Melo can show Grunnie better than he can tell him.

Talent wise, Mitchell should've been nabbed in the lows 20s or high teens. There must be some shady stuff in his background.
Haha!I love it when th Knicks crap on armchair draft experts! Welcome to team Timmah Jr!!!
Every young player can't handle NYC , when are you guys gonna believe that ?

True, but it has nothing to do with this tired Rhetoric of Melo stealing Amare's real estate. The results are what they are, I just get tired of these lazy analysts.
I like the Tim Hardaway Jr. pick in a vacuum but the pick solves nothing for us in terms of landscape but it feels good bringing in young blood. I hope the kid does well.
He will be a Garden Favorite and Melo better get ready because I believe he may end up with a Lin like love affair with him

Roberson is a slightly less talented version of Mitchell if that tells you anything and he was selected in the first round.
Rudy Gobert is the next pick.

Please no bad related humor about hardsanity....
Would like to see a trade now. Need to get Muscala
That would make draft good.
No more having to live with whatever JR shows up. Hopefully, woody can get the guts to go away from him when JR hits the clubs next season.

Me to, now I can go to bed happy! Thanks to the Knicks FO for not F'in this up!
very "meh" pick.
This was my assessment on Hardaway Jr before the draft:
Tim Hardaway Jr. - nice player but seems to be getting hyped off his father's name. He takes really dumb shots and often settles for shots or forces the shot in traffic. He's not a good decision maker and he's pretty inconsistent. He also can't seem to create for himself consistently because of the poor shot selection, which doesn't really fit with the team. Not a good defender. Plays SG, a position I think we are not in dire need for.
