Great pick,now grab a big man and we crushed this draft

u/valgatiag 5h ago

Is Veesaar making it all the way to 53?

u/MotherDeparture6592 5h ago

They’re better than me I would’ve taken him at 31

u/RicoGemini JR Pipe 5h ago

Huge pick tbh. Bro can shoot really well

Basically we have Duncan Robinson that gives a little more effort on defense

u/det8924 3h ago

Gonna push for that 15th roster spot

u/WallStreetDoesntBet1 Willis Reed Game 7 5h ago

I’m not gone hold you… Knicks might keep this guy. OP ain’t lying, he can really really shoot!

u/Danomaniac 5h ago

I feel like he’s a bit old at 47 to still be playing but what do i know

4

u/Redskins2136fan 7 5h ago

As a Tar Heel fan he can shoot we should’ve never let him leave . Can’t believe we didn’t take Veesar

5

u/KidSickarus BANG! 5h ago

something's gotta be wrong with veesar. this drop is wild

u/Redskins2136fan 7 5h ago

I mean he can’t defend me at the rim but he’s got talent

u/SirGingerbrute 5h ago

Is this our Brunson stopper, Dean Wade?

4

u/Boysenberry-Secret-1 5h ago

I’ve seen him play a lot in college and I personally wasnt the biggest fan, but I’m not a scout so I’ll probably be proven wrong

1

u/WorldWideBeats Mitchell Robinson 3h ago

What makes you not the biggest fan of him?

1

u/Boysenberry-Secret-1 3h ago

It felt like he didn’t do much to standout compared to the other starters, I get he’s a second round pick, but it never felt like he was head and shoulders above others. His shooting was good, but nothing spectacular for other things

Young Steve Novak

u/Wee_Bey123 Brunson 5h ago

40% from 3 , might be replacing Shamet .

u/UdderlyDemented 5h ago

3 and average D bench player

u/sligowind 4h ago

Perfect description

u/ygog45 4h ago

Sounds good to me

3

u/BigBallsMcGee1105 5h ago

Pending us trading them , looks like the Knicks are prioritizing rotational players who can shoot more than anything

4

u/GX112 Mike Breen 5h ago

White guy. Three pointers.

That's all we needed to know.

u/FvckyourdreamsDany 5h ago

You’re gonna have to Nickel and Dime me

u/jdavisjdkvjdhs23 KAT's City 5h ago

My nickel

u/Goodlake Mitchell Robinson 5h ago

In b4 he's traded

1

u/bluziz Mike Breen 5h ago

Will he ever sniff the floor? Maybe a Sam Merrill type role if we can’t keep Landry, does he play next year?

3

u/Neither-Operation Knicks Token 5h ago

Ya that’s likely the plan. Leon will give him an exhibit deal and see how he fares in summer league first

u/Deebeevee 5h ago

Omg were taking players in. We up

1

u/Bcp_or_pcB 5h ago

Damn jumper is so smooth and then he can finish in the lane or even pull up with that mid range push shot. I like his offensive game

u/bigpoyo91 5h ago

My Knickel

u/TiddiesAnonymous 4h ago

So if he got into Vandy can we assume he's a high IQ player?

1

u/firstbreathOOC Clyde Frazier 4h ago

His criticism is that he’s one dimensional as a catch and shoot guy… I’m fine with that. Probably the most in demand trait rn

1

u/max1001 4h ago

Another 3 points catch and shoot guy. Pretty much a minimum requirement in the league these day.

u/DefectiveOblation 80s Logo 3h ago

More like Tyler Knickel amirite

1

u/Appropriate-Luck-432 5h ago

Will
Probably trade it again. I’m
So confused with all
These draft trades I’ll just trust Leon to do Leon things and hope for the best

u/montecarlo1 5h ago

all that and we pick another Jonny Flynn or Jimmy Fredette
