I might be wrong and he makes this team as a hustle player, but you're talking about Jorts will have to play Center. I dont see how a guy who only played due to Kentucky having only 2 guys over 6'9 is somehow NBA ready by any means.
We need impact players, someone with the potential to be a starter down the line. Not a guy who is at best a bench guy.
Thats my only issue with the pick.
The Knicks don't need a potential starter down the line in this second round. They have zero depth at center so they just need anyone at this point. They are going after chris Paul and/or Dwight Howard, so they probably won't spend much this offseason. They need to get cheap hustle guys like haralson who are willing to do the dirty work. Haralson will do this, plus they only paid 750k to get the pick.
The best news is they didn't go after a point guard. Leaving open the posibility for cp3.
i stopped watching a little bit after Cleveland selected Tristan Thompson....i still cant believe that
Chad Ford was hearing something from a really good source because he said in his latest mock draft that Tristan Thompson was a dark horse for Cleveland at #4.

But another serious dark horse here is Tristan Thompson. As I reported on Wednesday, Thompson met with owner Dan Gilbert in Cleveland on Monday, and the Cavs are intrigued.
