Why is an NFL insider tweeting about the Knicks. I am just hoping we don't get back any slots. We will never move up so no reason to ever expect that.

We will move back. Someone behind us will jump into the top 4. Lakers will probably get the number 1 pick because god forbid they don't get a top 5 pick

The Lakers do not have a pick in the 2022 NBA Draft.

The Lakers gave up their 2022 first-round pick in the deal that brought Davis to Los Angeles. The Pelicans then included that pick in the Steven Adams-Jonas Valanciunas trade with a top-10 protection. That means if the Lakers' pick lands in the top-10, it'll go to the Pelicans. (The Grizzlies would instead get two second-round picks.) If it falls outside of the top-10, it'll go to the Grizzlies.

Of course- there would have been a sure fire way to land in the top 4- trade our pick for a washed up NBA star.

Briggs, you need to take that energy from the Rangers game and offer it to the basketball lottery gods as a tribute

Better yet, offer to buy UK tickets for opening night if the Knicks land the #1 pick That is one sure fire way to change the fate of the Knick franchise!

And the jets aren’t making the playoffs for another 10+ years

you should watch that kid play... he's everything you would have hoped KP would be and has a great attitude. Good passer, fantastic rebounder, shot blocker, hits 3s... he would be an amazing piece to add

I'll admit I haven't watched him play - I just can't get past how skinny he is. The trauma of Fredrick Weiss & KP is still strong.

We lose all our cap space and our pick.

So you are saying the Knicks really have a 33% chance of getting a top pick? NICE

I don't understand why they do it behind closed doors and then make announcements later.

I'm guessing the raw mechanics of the actual lottery is boring and they put on a show of the lottery representatives to sell advert $$?

And the simulator I played with yesterday, confirms your prediction. I was shocked how many times Washington moved up. It only took about 8-10 draft sims for the knicks to reach top 4. But the simulator tells me the knicks will stay put.

And it's just so 'Knicks' that two meaningless wins would cost us a top 4 pick.
