Can't wait for Willy and KP to tear up some ho's in NYC:
You can't teach hand stand skills like that to a 7 footer. KP and Willy gonna rain train on chicks all over Gotham. Derek Fisher better watch his stable, they gonna rummage it! Phil might even extend a 10 day contract to that other dude to form the trinity.
Can't wait until 2016-2017! 
I can't believe I even opened this thread and watched that ......... but I am glad I did
good stuff
Well hopefully he will provide us with a legit back up Center at worst and at best he lets us trade Rolo for Guard help.
Some things you just wish you can un-see
I think some should temper expectations with willy at first. Im not trying to be negative because im a fan of willy too. However dont expect him to do what KP has done which has surprised almost everyone. Obviously willy doesnt have that same upside but even if he did it would be a tough adjustment at first. The point is even if he comes next year i dont expect much in his rookie year

Come on Starks, you don't see that athleticism and natural freak ability with that hand stand!
Guy can make a heart beat with his hands, what can't he do?
He'll be what some thought KOQ was going to be.
He is NOT super athletic, but more of a grinder, and it sounds like he has a good base. Seems to have a more fluid interior game, but limited range at this point, although I've read that his J might be something he can add range to.
Looking forward to him being with us next year, and believe that if he did not have an obligation to his Spanish team, he would have been a mid-20's pick last year.
We get him after another year of seasoning and maturation playing with, and against, very good players, and he hasn't had any tremendous wear and tear on his legs, either.

Man..Sevilla has a lot of bigs in their roster. Who is #12? He is almost the same height as KP.

Yea, Ondrej Balvin is 7'2 Czech monster. Something in that European water I guess.
Temper the expectations and root for the kid to make it. Might take a few years, my god imagine such a thing.
Fans will be calling for us trade him as Dolan used to use these guys as throw in's.
You want to emulate SAS, then we can't trade these guys. let them run their course. There is a price to pay for rebuilding and Jose as our starting guard is one of them.
It was him, or Felton. Jose is not a lot of things but he alone is not the cause of our 10 game slide. Melo's ankle and Fish's Penis were more damaging than Jose's defense.
I'll be happy to see Willy be a solid back up. BTW, a team can win a chip with Rolo as their starting center. he is not dominant, but he can hold his own. At 27 he is a better bargan than Marc Gasol has been with his broken foot this year, and better than Tyson. Jose is better than Felton and the wild card that is Clearanthony is just not known. The "Steal" of the second round has not shown it prior to his knee incident. Im ok with Phil swinging for the fences with picks.

You simply don't get it Starks! Willy is a star in the making. He and KP should have a reality show as soon as he touches down in JFK. It'd put the Andy and Landry show to shame.
Real Madrid big man Willy Hernangomez stated today that his will is too stick around with his current team rather than going to the NBA next summer, when his contract expires. “I’ve read some stuff in the media and I’d like to say I’m happy where I am right now. I’ve said it a lot of times: I’d love to stay at Real Madrid to be able to win championships and improve as a player”, Hernangomez said
Despite having limited minutes at Real Madrid and Kristaps Porzingis PR campaign, the 21-year-old center seems inclined to renew his expiring contract. Nothing’s set in stone, though. “We’re gonna start negotiating. Right now I’m focused in the games ahead of us, but I do wish to say I am a ‘madridista’ and I’d like to stay”, he said. – via El Juego de Naismith

I believe that if guys stay in europe for a certain number of years after they are drafted they can sign a bigger contract when they come over. I don't know if that is just for first round picks or all picks. I think that is partially why Dario Saric hasn't come over. I might be mistaken.

Having a Milos Vujanic flashback. If he stays beyond another season, I'm not interested. Dont want the Knicks playing the waiting game with this kid.

If the Knicks took Christmas instead would they have kept Schved?

LOL Crush. IDK, thought this kid was coming here this summer. Never saw the fascination with a PG
whose errant passes sometimes ended up in the blue seats.
Man look at KP move.
Haha never figured he was a dancer.
I'm also interested in seeing what Gomez can do next year. Should take Seraphin's spot on the team.
