    13th pick: Donatas Motiejunas
    23rd Pick: Tyler Honeycutt
    38th Pick: Keith Benson

    This I think is the best scenerio for us without trading up. The lithuanian PF has the shooting ability and size to be the next Dirk. Tyler Honeycutt isn't flashy but he is a defensive, athletic SF that fills that need. Benson is a true center that may pan out and be an anchor.

    Thoughts?

    Looks good to me. If Motiejunas is there at #14, we should grab him. Like I've said before, I can't believe the mock drafts that have the Rockets taking someone else with him available.

    Wrong thread, sorry.

    Best case scenario is we trade up and draft Valanciunas.

    Not a fan of any of the players you listed.

    Now that's interesting considering the Rockets have the rights to just swap picks with the Knicks though no incentive to do so.

    Interesting

    Pick swap for Fields?

    *edit*

    Actual quote from a Knick fan

    It can't happen. I personally think Biyombo will be a flop, but teams are loving him for some reason. I don't see it.
