wow, samardo samuels?
i went to school with that guy! granted, i think he was only in 9th grade then but still.
back then he was a lazy bum but who knows? maybe pitino made him get his act together. either way, he’s definitely not a center so i wouldn’t get too excited about seeing him in a Knicks uniform.

the more i hear of hobson
the more i fear a chandler or walker trade to get into the first round trenches. i dont like it, but maybe im being sentimental. Would you guys do a chandler for eric beldsoe trade? or chandler for solomon alabi? We lose a guy on the threshold of being really good, but the team gets better and more complete. Everyone loves a legit pg or C.

especially FAs
and I dont want shaq in a NYK uniform. Ever.

I know it would be nice to think of every draft pick the Knicks have
as being a sure thing, but I really hope they’re not thinking like that.
Hobson may be a SF, but if anything it give Chan or Bully some competition for whatever spot they’re gonna have with the Knicks.
If the Knicks are actually making a draft board, and have Hobson at #1…well, why skip over him if he’s the best player for them?
It doesn’t have to mean a trade of Chan or Walker either. Hobson has to prove that he’s gonna make the team first.
Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeit

loving all the draft profiles and coverage
we don’t get any college basketball over in the uk so its really great. however, from my position of pure ignorance never having seen him play, darington hobson has too many of the same letters in his name as al harrington. this is of great concern.

i hope we get lance
n i kno most people dont want him but shit we need defense and we need some ny spirit on that damn team, straight hard nose in your face basketball thats wat he brings at the sg position
In Donnie We Trust!
Stephenson said he wouldn't mind potentially dropping out of the first round,
As long as he is drafted by the Knicks.

Hard nosed hoops is good
but we don’t have room for hard-heads and dudes that already have an oversized ego before they even play an NBA game.
He should have stayed at Cincy at least another year too.

Big time.
I wanna like this dude, he’s got the tools, and even if he won the POY or whatever in the BE, he still seemed underwhelming and definately needed another year. He didn’t look in great condition and he should be playing guard but didn’t seem thebest conditioned for that position, and if yer gonna get to the line alot, you might wanna take aim first. I’ll say he to anyone he’s got a great upside, he just needs to frow into it first. He took a good step taking Cincy over Sj’s, but another year with commitment and working on the little things and he coulda been lottery. And yeah, hard-nosed is good which is why I won’t cry if we do get him (I prefer Dominique Jones if we take a SG).
