stinky finger Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEACH 716257[/snapback] Whitner is a legit 1st rounder. Isn't he? McCargo we can argue, but even he is an early 2nd rounder. Balkman could have been had as a FA by most accounts. Isaiah's reach seems to be deeper, IMO.

MadBuffaloDisease Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 The Rams were going to take Whitner at #11. They lost SS Adam Archuleta (who was overrated anyway), and after the Bills took Whitner and their turn came up, they traded-down with the Broncos. Same thing happened with the Giants and McCargo. IOW, it was only a reach to the so-called "draft gurus." Not that any of them ever have any accountability for their draft projections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fewell733 Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 Admittedly I know hardly anything about the guy the Knicks drafted- but this whole draft seemed pretty weak. The guy apparently is a high energy defender who they compared to Artest (doubt he has that kind of offensive skill) and Rodman. If he turns into anything like them (on the court) then it will have been a great pick for a team that plays with such little enthusiasm. Isiah certainly has no track record to trust though and as a Knicks fan, I can't wait till he's gone. I like who the Bills drafted. Whitner, I believe, will be a better player than Huff - way more aggressive and actually plays faster, and McCargo, well, I'm eager to see what he can do.

All I know, is the guy played like his life was on the line in the NIT. It might have been a reach, but it couldn't hurt to have someone with that attitude around jackasses like Steve Francis.

bartshan-83 Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 He is such a dumbass. Watching Isaiah continually out-do himself with terrible organizational moves is something I will cherish forever. It never gets old. Unfortunately, Dolan has given him a 1 year lease on the Knicks. So this comedy may finally be coming to an end... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the long run it won't even matter. Isaiah is gone next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has been one great move after another. Let's just be thankful that we have one more year to watch him pace the sidelines wondering what kind of idiot would put that squad together. Then he'll stop and think, "Oh yeah, I did." Over/under time: 22.5 wins for the Knicks, over or under? I'll go under, 20-62. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
