Following Potential 2018 Draftees

It's just strange. EVERYONE knows Huerter is going to be gone by #21, and yet he's saying we'll pass on him and he'll get picked #24.

It's like he's been living in a cave somewhere.

I agree, it's very strange. I'm not sure what to think about it.

Damn, you're right.

BTW - who's your homer pick this year? I'll add you to the list.

I'm gonna wait until I see where they're picked. One year I picked Elfrid Payton when he was mocked at like 30, and then he was picked 10th and that was no bueno lol.

I don't know what Memphis would want from New York that could make a trade for #4 work.

#4 and Parsons for #9, Hardaway Jr and filler? Doesn't sound attractive to me if I'm in charge of Memphis.

My mind is in idea overload. Bear with me...

Grizz get Courtney Lee (valuable vet) and #9
Knicks get Burks and #4
Jazz get Parsons, Nkilitina, #32

We actually use the Joe Johnson trade exception to get Nkilitina prior to July 1. The rest of the trade gets completed after the July Moratorium. We would have to renounce Thabo, Jerekbo and Udoh (unless Memphis or New York wants one of those guys which would actually make the trade easier for us). .

Yeah I'd be torn too.. I can see arguments from both sides. Bagley's the safer pick. He'll give you 20 and 10 for the next 10 years. Doncic is the Home Run pick. He could help your team reach new heights.

Again, you’re wrong.

People think he could be gone by 21. Nobody (with the exception of a team or two) knows for sure that he will be gone at 21.

Doncic > Bagley each and every day. Bagley sucks at defense and I just like Doncic more.

I don't like this trade at all. I wouldn't want to take on two years of Parson's toxic contract just for Nkilitina and #32.

So basically the smart decision makers in the room want Doncic but Vivek has a man crush on Bagley

Bamba and Porzingis in NY would be insane....

EPIC

How exactly would that happen?

i quoted someone else that the quote didnt post

Yeah, I'm not sold either. I just can't see the Knicks taking on Parsons' contract just to move up 4 spots in the draft.

It would take a late lottery pick to shed Parsons' contract.

 

[Park Bites]

If we draft him, we need a fanbase-wide PSA that it is Hutchison not HutchiNson. Even Tony and his editor missed it lol.

i never paid close enough attention thanks
