    Hukporti is a mix between Hartenstein and Robinson. He's way more active and fluid on the court with a great measure of intensity that makes him more reliable than Sims. He should definitely be Robinson's back-up.

      Sims been with team for past 4 years. Knicks has seen growth of IQ, RJ, IHart, Grimes, McBride and Obi. They have all done great and Sims is still languishing on bench as 3rd string 5 with no potential of going beyond his ceiling. If Huk plays well remaining pre season games, Knicks should definitely start him as the back up C so they don’t need to search the trade market so desperately for a back up 5

    I told you all about Hukporti, is a euro vet, at only 22 yrs old. He has the fundamentals down. Hukporti actually is slower from where he was three years ago before the ACL. He looks fast because he understands the fundamentals and keeps moving his feet. … Dmytro, who he played with in SL is good also, hope we can get him back. We should let 22yr old Hukporti develop slowly. Would love Nnaji on a two way also. These late rd picks need to hit because we trade all of first rounders.

    I know this is more of a rookie vid, but I have to give some love to Mikal. There's a reason they gave up so much for Bridges, he basically does everything really well. He caught some flak because he wasn't able to be a #1 scoring option for the Nets. Actually, he did well for the half season he was traded, but then couldn't maintain that level of play the next season. He's the #3 option now, has elite D, a high B ball IQ, doesn't miss games. I see great things for him this season

    Pacome Dadiet has not played in 2 preseason games. 19 yr old probably headed to G League or back to France/overseas for further developments. Should play him at the 3-4 spots with his height and skills. Develop him into that 3-4 where there is a logjam at guard positions with Brunson, McBride, Kolek, Payne, Landry, Hart, Bridges. Knicks need more SFs/PFs players to round out bench depth and rotation
