Kira y Maxey, pintan más como opciones de trade down. Veremos que traman los Soprano, en cualquier caso, ambos, son guards muy del gusto de Thibs.Yes, the Knicks are serious about Lewis, the 6-foot-3 speed demon who has climbed up draft boards during the pandemic. Under new NBA guidelines, the Knicks are allowed 10 in-person workouts. Lewis became one of them.
Whether the Knicks are looking at Lewis with the No. 8-overall pick if Killian Hayes is off the board or — more likely — in a trade back, still is unclear with the draft not until Nov. 18.

NBA Insiders Fear Knicks Could Become 'Kentucky Pipeline Team'
The New York Knicks hired Leon Rose, who was a longtime agent with CAA, to run their front office earlier this year and Bill Simmons of The Ringer suggests people around the league are monitoring the possibility of former Kentucky players could be funneled to the franchise.
Rose also hired William Wesley for a role in the front office, who was his colleague at CAA.
"There's also a real fear in the NBA," said Bill Simmons. "I'm fine talking about this. It's rumor, heresy stuff. But it's just a fact. Kentucky, Worldwide Wes had a great relationship with John Calipari. CAA's got multiple Kentucky guys and there's a real fear in the league that the Knicks are going to become the Kentucky pipeline team.
"Devin Booker is a great example of that, right? Even though he's on a big deal right now, at some point if he wanted to move out of there...
"The league is kind of watching the Kentucky factor with that team.
"I think even [Anthony] Davis, if the Lakers hadn't won the title this year, who knows? Right? Are we positive he would have stayed? I don't know. All of the signs, all of the dialogue was like 'LeBron and him love each other'. But who knows what would have happened?
"That Knicks thing is intriguing," replied Kevin O'Connor.
"Also, if you're the Kentucky pipeline team, that's a good thing because that's the one true pipeline we have right now. All the Kentucky guys know each other, like each other. Every year they have top dudes."
Kentucky has the most former players currently in the NBA.
"All this stuff, follow the breadcrumbs. Rich Paul and Klutch, the same thing. The agents carry a lot more sway than people think."

No sé si era por los mocks iniciales o qué pero tengo la impresión que Maxey es mejor que Kira. Ojalá consigamos un pick medio.
No les gusta nada pero la afición de NY suele ser bastante subnormal así que ningún problema en que no les guste.Spree85 escribió:Y eso por qué? lo de caer mal Maxey.
Va, todavía hay plazas (todas) en el #teamKira para que nos pasemos el año tirándonos palos unos a otros
En el 20 o más no va a salir, está subiendo mucho en el proceso como es lógico. Si no se puede bajar porque nadie te ofrece nada, no me parece mal usar el 8 en él si creen que es su hombrefabidocs escribió:¿Qué tal está Kyra en defensa, asistencias y tiro?
Lo pregunto porque todo lo que circula son videos donde rompe y ataca el aro. Si es solamente ese su argumento no vamos muy bien...
Además si vamos por él seguro será con un tradedown porque todos lo dan abajo del puesto 20, hasta se podría pillar con la primera ronda baja que tenemos.

Puto Rich Paul y Lebron el show que montaron ayer.
Parece que Maxey gustoMaxey conducted a 20-minute, solo workout at a Los Angeles gym filled with shooting and dribbling drills. His shot mechanics came into question at Kentucky, but he’s changed his release to a higher point, as the workout showed. At one juncture, Maxey sank five straight 3-pointers.
“I was able to show I can knock down my outside shot consistently — catch-and-shoot, off the move — and I was able to show my conditioning because nobody has seen me because of COVID-19,’’ Maxey said on ESPN.
One of Maxey’s attributes is a rabid work ethic. Maxey said he was up at 4:50 a.m. Thursday to head to the gym when his agent told him to sleep in. He didn’t. “I love the grind,’’ Maxey said.
Ignas Brazdeikis looks to prove he can be part of Knicks’ rebuild
“I was definitely looking forward for an opportunity to actually play in the NBA, play for the Knicks and get a good amount of time because I definitely feel I belong,’’ Brazdeikis said. “I feel I’m an NBA player. I can compete and really impact a game. That’s what I want to be — an impact player who can help a team win. I feel I can do that.
“It was definitely disappointing. At the same time, I focused on getting better and making the most out of the situation, which obviously wasn’t the best situation.”
By June, Brazdeikis and his trainer had started working out at the arena in which the Toronto Raptors’ G-League squad plays.
“I still definitely gained from it,’’ Brazdeikis said. “It was the first time I had that much time to work on my game and I got in productive workouts.’’
During the pandemic, he has performed a slew of shooting-form drills. Brazdeikis has worked on balance and footwork, gliding into his jump shot to make all attempts “consistent every time I shoot it,’’ he said.
Brazdeikis averaged a team-high 14.8 points for Michigan in 2018-19. But coming out of the draft, scouts touted his defense as the element that would hamper his NBA transition.
“There are people who have said my defense isn’t as strong, which I disagree with,’’ Brazdeikis said. “I’m going to make sure and prove to everyone that no one can call that a weakness.’’
