Rockets beat bucksI still wish we took that flyer on KPJr. He was probably a head case but the talent was clear. Not tripping tho as I think we can snatch our own KPJ in this draft.
The top 4 in this year’s draft I think are pretty much set. In some order, Cade, Suggs, Mobley, Green/ Kuminga.
But I do think that there is opportunity to pick up under the radar quality. Scouting / FO been producing lately.
Kpjr was the 30th pick in a crap draft so it’s definitely possible. I’m also making a direct reference to James Bouknight

Yeah, but Porter's drop was due to his "issues." I think our part of the draft is the part where it's acceptable to make gambles like that. It's one of the few people things, maybe the only, thing Isaiah excelled at as GM.

Yeah we need a guy who is in strip clubs in the early morning hours, with his teammate who is covered in blood after getting a bottle smashed on his head, and then arguing with police.
No boneheads please.

Wonder what impact that club incident has on him, I think his dad died in a similar situation (trying to help someone who was being beaten up in a bar):
Porter Sr. grew up hard. In 1993, he was charged with first-degree murder at 19 in the point-blank shooting death of a 14-year-old girl. The lone witness later recanted a statement that the shooting was intentional, and Porter Sr. was sentenced to four and a half years in prison for first-degree manslaughter. He served his sentence and became a young father, but tragedy struck again in 2004. According to Porter Jr.’s mom, Ayanna, his father was trying to help someone who was getting beat up at a bar when he was shot five times and killed. Porter Jr. was just 4 years old when it happened, which is why he wears no. 4. Soon after he arrived at USC on a basketball scholarship, one of the assistant coaches, Martin Bahar, referred to him as just “Kevin Porter” in conversation. Porter Jr. immediately cut him off: “Junior.” His Instagram captions often end with the hashtag “#RIPBIGKP.”

That's why it's acceptable to gamble late in the first-round and second-round. If the guy continues to be a bonehead, you just right it off. Kinda like the Dotson situation. Personally, I don't have a problem with the Knicks not wanting to go after Porter when he was in Cleveland. But I could understand their rationale if they did.

Chemistry and commitment seem to have everything to do with the Knicks' surprising success. I understand the concept of taking a flyer, but I appreciate it if management is being conscious of what they have.
