I was watching it, got bored. Reddick, Williams, and Gay are gone, along with a couple few international players. Picks 15-60 should be a hoot.

Knicks Suck. I was hoping they would get williams, but now. What a dumb fucking team man. Honestly, they might as well have drafted me. Fucking stupid ass team man, what a bunch of shitbags. I need to get rich and buy that team.

Don't blame Isiah. He just wants to make sure that the Bulls get the top pick next year (by swapping picks with New York, since they'll have the worst record)

Neato. Bulls pack their 2nd pick (FROM DA KNICKS...THANKS!!! ) to the Blazers for Thomas. And they get Viktor Khryapa for letting Portland move up.

I thought you're a Chicago fan? With each Isiah decision, the Bulls get closer to getting the top pick next year.

Alright, Knicks up next. Let's see how Isiah can help the Bulls again.

They have the rights to swap picks. So when Chicago wins the championship () and New York finishes with the worst record (), Chicago can still end up with the first pick. Next years draft should be much better.

That's right. So, here's hoping the Knicks play like a CBA team again next year.

Bunch of money stealing losers + no Larry Brown + Isiah Thomas = #1 pick

Well, lessee...Curry can't play D...and he won't help score since Marbury and Francis will be fighting up and down the court/showers/lockers for the ball.......yup, first overall.

Hey, he's the Knicks' loss and the Bulls' gain.

The sad thing is, if only he'd develop a mean-streak. Good guy supposedly...but, clueless when it comes to getting the ball and defense. And ultimately lazy...



Anyhoo, anyone got info on Viktor Khryapa other than he was a 2004 first rounder?

I think he averaged around 5 ppg and 5 rpg last year. Nothing impressive, but should help Chandler and on defense.

Yes, I heard this also. We shall see how he recovers from surgery, and whatever else his freshman year will throw at him.

He'll most likely be the first pick. He probably would have been the first pick this year if HS players were eligible for the draft.

David Stern should reset all roster and salary caps and start a "fantasy" draft to shake things up.

That is the only way the Knicks have a decent chance in being what they were a decade ago.

Not really. I'm not chiming about Chicago because I'm a Bulls fan...but, Paxson inherited a giant mess after Krause was gone from GM.

The Knicks just need a smarter GM...

^ Also, I must add that it's sad to see Isiah ruin his legacy and reputation as a player by being such a sorry executive.


Great running the basketball floor...but clueless when it comes to running team. Too bad...

Let's just change the whole league around just to benefit the Knicks

Chicago was in an even worse spot 6 years ago.

I agree, fuck new york.

The Bulls couldn't have been any worse than when they castrated the whole team several years back.

Franchises can pull themselves out of the gutter with some good planning...at the end of the day, if Isiah was smart, he'd TNT the morons on his roster (i.e. Francis, Marbury). I'm sure some other executive would drool for any of those "stars"...so, for NY, eat up some of the $$$ owed and take on players on the last year of their contracts (i.e. what Paxson did)...and within a year or two, the team will be competitive again.
