The Knicks and Hezonja close out a tough recruitment, where several teams -- including Portland, Sacramento and Memphis -- competed for a fifth overall pick from the 2015 NBA Draft. Hezonja was drawn to coach David Fizdale, after going thru several coaching changes in Orlando.

Nice. He first tweeted Mario to the blazers.
Love this move. Kid is only 23 years old
Well, this might be the first move of Mills-Perry that I liked. With some floor-spacing around him, I think Hezonja might pleasantly surprise many. I just hope they don't waste this opportunity and understand that Hezonja is a 4 and not a 2.
This signing signals the end for Michael Beasley.
See ya!
nice signing. I like Luke too.
The talent is there, now can they get Fizz to put it together enough to attract top talent next summer?
Decent signing, looki.g forward to seeing him play
Yessss hate to say good bye to Beasley, but herzonja still has star potential.
High potential and a new "Fix Kid"........
Knicks identity has changed a lot in one year. Triangle chaos with half in, half out Hornacek to full out youth under Mills with a well regarded young coach!
I like what Mills is doing!!!
Coach drawing players. Nice

Personally I think Perry has been EXCELLENT since coming on board. He's totally upgraded the teams youth and athleticism. This is a completely different vibe since this new regime has taken over. Smarter moves and more Front Office synergy. I like it all. The drafts and acquisitions that Perry has made are all moving in the right direction. He's not even done yet.

Its just a matter of time before he's coach and president
Another well executed move by Perry. Now how he juggles Trier, Hicks, Robinson etal remains to be seen.
More 3 point shooting is always a good thing and I'm glad that's the only type of players we're looking at
Still more moves to make, but Perry has been very judicious about the deals he's giving out. More cautious than Mills. Which shows independence. Collectively they're not biting on overpaid retreads. Which has been a problem with almost every regime, not to single any out.
They're taking a chance on younger, unproven players, not going for the you know what. Leaving themselves room to go after legit FA targets when an opportunity presents itself. Not being busy just for the sake of it.

You think everything the Knicks do is "EXCELLENT", ever since I joined this board. I don't mean to be rude but it's clear you're biased to the point where you can't be objective. As a fan, I always find myself hoping you'd be right but I doubt it will happen with this front office.
I will say that I find myself liking the image/reasoning of the Fizdale hire. He's really the only thing about Perry-Mills that I have a more positive opinion of. But there is too little a track record to even be sure if Fizdale's hype is justified.
Question is will Hezonja start?

Agreed...
