Some guys just want to be right too. A bit of confirmation bias on KOC’s part

Knicks can never have enough PF’s 
I don’t see us trading up. Makes no sense in this draft and we’re not giving up assets but trying to acquire them through using our cap space to take bad $
With that said, I’m just fine with any of the top 3. Give me Edwards at this point. I’d gladly welcome Deni but we haven’t met with him.
hornets have met with or worked out Ball, Wiseman, Edwards, Onyeka, Scrubb from what I can gather

Hornets might get their guy (Wiseman) by just staying pat.
Wild how John Hollinger said he'd strongly consider and lean towards doing RJ + Mitch + #8 for Lamelo.

RJ gets a really bad rep unfairly. Sure he has his flaws, but during his best games as a 19 year old rookie, he outperformed legit all stars. At his best he looked really good.

I’ll take Mitch or RJ +8 for 3 in a heartbeat.

Anyone would take that deal. Knicks would be dumb to trade either of those two plus a pick to move up in the draft.

That might be honestly too gracious to RJ. If RJ don’t learn how to pass fast, he’s going to be in China sooner than later.
Good luck to whoever takes LaMelo first lol.

RJ would be top 5 in next years draft too. I see what time it is today though

I really don’t think that’s a lot.
The name of the game is getting a star. Lamelo has a better chance than either of those guys to become one. One of those guys plus that pick in a weak draft IF you believe in Melo is not crazy.

RJ basically put up the same numbers as Brandon Ingram did in his rookie year in a similarly bad situation. He showed enough flashes for me to believe he'll be on an upward trajectory. I'd rather have him than anybody in this draft.

I never said it was crazy but I guess I’m not sold on any of these kids becoming sure fire all stars or having a great chance at thatI really don’t think that’s a lot.
There’s so many things to like about these kids but the cons are all pretty glaring

Yea, I think they all have glaring weaknesses. But Mitchell Robinson is unlikely to be a star. RJ Barrett ehhh. If you think LaMelo has a shot and you can trade Mitch and 8 for him then I’d do that in a heartbeat.

I'd just take Killian Hayes if I were the Knicks. Don't really see much difference between him and LCW and it wouldn't cost you a piece of your "core". If he's not there, go Haliburton or Lewis or whatever other guard they like. Should be able to grab a decent role player at 27 too.

His ceiling isn’t much higher (if at all) than Ant’s and Ant is way more likely to reach his

I don't think we're really in a position to trade Barrett or Robinson. They may not be high level assets but putting all your eggs into the Melo basket isn't a good idea.
If we got #1 & wanted to draft him, then sure.
