OK, Ok, I got this.......

YOu saying we should drop down because if you don't know who to draft, then neither does Gaines, and thus, we can take more picks and perhaps we should take the Duke white guy that reminds you of the other white guy who is good and plays for the heat? Am I warm????

Different players. Dragic is a quick slasher and good finisher who has worked to make his jumper respectable. The other guy is a good shooter with mediocre, at best, speed who struggles shooting close to the Tim.. JJ Reddick would be a better comparison with Kennard, and that comparison doesn't really fit. Kennard is to slow to play lead guard in the NBA. I think he'll be a nice player, but not someone worth trading down for.

Drag ic early in his career was a faster slasher no doubt. But if you look at film of him now he's lost a step and relies on both his outside shot with his driving skills. I'm not sure today that drag ic is any much better of an athlete. Now can Kennard play lead guard?

I think it's smart to keep eyes open and looking around --I realize watching the finals you better score a lot of points

I was trying to guess what the thread would be about. I was thinking: "Breaking news: Derrick Rose's knee may be a concern"

Absolutely not. We saw the treatment KP got this year, and he improved.

Laughing at a 6-6 guard who can play 1-2 who avg 20 points and 44% from 3? Dont be a dork. Hes one of the best skilled players in the draft.


Kennard really improved with his ability to initiate offense this season, partially out of necessity on a Duke team with no point guard on the roster. He was very functional operating out of the pick and roll, in no small part due to his shot-making prowess, but also because of his ability to find the open man. Kennard sees over the top of the defense at 6'6 and is a very willing facilitator who almost never turns the ball over. He makes quick reads and decisions within the flow of the offense, seeing things evolving on the court and adjusting on the fly with a very high basketball IQ. There are some NBA people that feel he has legit combo guard potential with his strong handle, impressive vision, and ability to make shots off the bounce, something that would certainly boost his NBA prospects. - Source: http://www.draftexpress.com/profile/Luke-Kennard-72914/ ©DraftExpress

sometimes the wave of emotion perpetuated by the mob mentality can spill over and control our emotions.

Nope just another guy Briggs like in the draft. I think we're up to about 20 players now that he wants the Knicks to draft. Still got a couple of weeks to go to get to his normal number....lol
