    It is sad that we are fighting for who to take in the middle of round two - like drunks digging in the garbage can hoping they find a few drops of liquid gold in a crushed can.

    This is where we are at......

    Count down to being told that the draft went exactly how Stone and Udoka wanted it to go.

    Apparently we are now fighting over who to take at the very top of round 2. We get the absolute cream of the dumpster diving crop!

    Honestly it’s been terrible, yesterday for every pick they zoomed in on the face of the guy about to be picked for 50 seconds straight every time, nothing was a surprise.

    Also what an elite pick if true, a rockets legend in the making

    I’ll take it. Smells like a reaction to fan outrage. But I’ll take it. Certainly didn’t give up much if there is a first round caliber player at #31.

    The Knicks are winning and giving.....unlike the Spurs.....sharing the wealth around.

    Mark Tatum instead of Adam Silver!
