@Bxnchero Melo - but needs to lean into his inner LeBron/Giannis more to reach his ceiling. Middies should be his counter, not his bread & butter.

@TheDunkCentral The Knicks have Donte Divincenzo already as their shooting guard who (deep breath): Averaged more rebounds, more assists, more steals, a higher FG%, higher 3P%, defended his ass off, is 7 years younger and made almost 25% Klay’s salary this year. 😮‍💨

Especially in a weaker draft, how the hell is Pacome Dadiet not in everyone's lottery? 6'9" 18 year-olds are not supposed to create shots with such ease. Jumper is clean, easy and consistent on the move. Flashes a dynamic handle, legit vision and defensive tools. All on a small

@NBA_University Comp'd him to a bigger Manu Ginobili coming out of college because of his scoring/passing creativity. He and Chet should both have a real shot at All-Star berths this year. His comp now may be closer to... Paul Pierce? Jimmy Butler? He's got such a unique offensive package.
