Maybe we should have drafted Dalton Knecht. Lol

Living in Tennessee now, saw a ton of his last season. Dude was special, and basically because he's a white dude, everyone sort of just wrote him off as a shooter with no on-ball game. Just plays with supreme confidence and a nasty streak. Was one of my favorite prospects in this draft and had him basically tied with Carter overall

I’ll eat crow already. He was one of my least intriguing guys come our pick. I have a funny habit of bouncing between being enamored by lesser athletic skill guys (Sup Luka and Sengun) and being completely off their wagon (Franz Wagoner and Knecht)

I was all for Luka and Wagner but wanted nothing to do with Sengun or Knecht so I can't be throwing out any I told you so's either if Carter doesn't develop into much.

On Christmas Day, the network and the league will continue the trend of presenting alternative broadcasts when the New York Knicks face the San Antonio Spurs...

While the traditional broadcast will be available on places like ESPN and ABC, ESPN2 will have what is being dubbed as “Dunk The Halls,” the first animated game in NBA history....

The presentation will utilize Sony’s “Beyond Sports Technology” by recreating the game action of stars like Victor Wembanyama and Jalen Brunson on Magic Kingdom’s “Main Street USA.” Mickey and Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Pluto, Goofy and Chip and Dale will cheer on the players and deliver pretend pre-game and half-time speeches.

I mean, having the NBA cup during the heat of the playoff chase is one way to have these games be competitive

I think the knockout rounds were all taken pretty seriously if that was part of the concern.

These new media deals are crap. I do get why they want to dictate the terms of their investments but ...

Hey I had knecht rated very highly, can't blame me. Carter and him were basically a tie for me.

But I thought you said you would have drafted Ware, not knecht?

actually I think I pussed out and didn’t pick one.

The only I knew for sure is I would not have drafted Carter and gone for some kind of forward. I hated the Damion pick and the Carter pick. I think the Damion pick has shown to be awful. We shall see about Carter.

Yup, I thought it was going to be Knecht when he was still there at #13. I would had taken him, but Monte seems to think Carter will be a stud. Although I think not drafting a SF at #13 helped us in landing DeRozan in free agency.
