That's a good sign.. also coupled with the fact that he's already got a decent shot and a hard worker.. he should develop pretty nicely..

I'm leaning towards knight, but I have to admit I 'd be nervous about this kid snapping like a twig in the NBA. The combination of quickness and stick-like build make me think of racing a schwinn 80 mph downhill into a traffic jam at the bottom. Walker looks like he could handle getting smacked around a little more.
I can't really say I'd much rather have one than the other, but I honestly just haven't watched then both near as much as a lot of people. For what it's worth, right now Draftexpress has Walker ranked 7th and Knight ranked 8th among top top 100 prospects.

walker's ceiling is kyle lowry
knight's is westbrook
and knight is more tending to involve his teammates(that is what a real pg should do) while walker tries to score himself
with 5'11'' u can score 20 a game in college, but not in nba
he can be a starter in teams like la or miami, but knight can be an important piece in any team, at least he has that potential
we will see what happens, but i hope we wont waste our pick on kemba walker since we dont have wade lebron or kobe

Agree with this, but would you spend your 6th pick on him? I'm sure he'll be gone by 12th...
Just looked up past year's 6th pick.. not exactly the who's who of the NBA.. I would actually gladly take Knight with my 6th pick..

Knight.
No question. Knight.
Has the potential to be a Tony Parker type player. A guy that can get into the lane and score. However, is he really that much different than Harris?
Besides, I doubt Knight gets many wins next year. Unless we draft a SG/SF or are able to trade Harris for a wing, we're doomed to lose at least 45 games next year. We could have Shaq and Malone in their primes right now and still miss the playoffs with our crappy wings bricking shots. We need 2s and 3s that can shoot (and make) shots.

i would spend 6 on a better one (maybe enes or perry jones), but trade to move up from 12 to get knight additionally
the funny thing is, the best guy here is roy imo and that year was the first draft year i have ever seen
Yeah and ROY dropped to 6th purely because of the injury concern which is plaguing him right now..
It's crazy, Knight was projected to be there at #12 a month ago. Someone may bite on him before #6 now.
