The Knicks make THEIR pick in the Draft, not yours

There were only four moments during the entire NBA Draft night where the crowd showed life: First was the Jan Vesely kiss from his hot blonde companion, second and third were the selections of New York's own Kemba Walker and Jimmer Fredette back to back selections at the 9th and 10th spot. But most importantly to the hundreds on Knicks fans in attendance was the 17th selection, with the highly touted Chris Singleton and Kenneth Faried available, the Knicks went their own route and choose Iman Shumpert, the 6'6 all-around guard from Georgia Tech.

During the course of the evening I ran into a few of Chris Singletons family members(Brooklyn Residents) and they were extremely excited of the possibility of Chris falling into the Knicks lap, they expressed to how much Chris would "love to play with Stat and Melo" and could add "exactly what they needed to the team". Ironically Singletons talents were taken by the Wizards with the very next pick(18th).

Most Knicks fans barely seen Shumperts game, and to boot he wasnt at the Draft, it was definitely a Air out of the balloon feeling in the Prudential Center after that selection. Iman Shumpert may very well turn into a great selection for the Knicks in the future but the most opinionated NBA fans(New Yorkers) were not agreement with Donnie Walsh's selection at that time. Only time can tell the stories of Shumpert, Faried, Singleton and the rest of the draftees, but if you watched the Knicks in the last three seasons then you already know what parts of the system is missing, rebounding and defense. Did they improve on that last night?


*Notable Mention: The Knicks traded cash considerations to the Hornets for their 2nd round 45th overall draft selection Josh Harrellson*

Knicks Are First Choice For Jimmer

We all know the knocks on Jimmer's game: no defense, undersized, one-dimensional, etc. But if you listen closely this kid is totally aware of his deficiencies and all of the criticisms that come with it and he seems prepared to work hard to prove everyone wrong, including myself.

Will Jimmer become another Adam Morrison, or can he mold himself into a great complimentary player on a very good team(e.g. JJ Barea.)?

Donnie Walsh out as Knicks GM

Here's the statement from James Dolan:

"Following a long series of discussions regarding his future role with the New York Knicks, Donnie Walsh and I have mutually agreed that he will be leaving his position as president, basketball operations of the Knicks at the end of June. Donnie will remain with the team as a consultant for the 2011-12 season. In a relatively short time with the Knicks, Donnie made a tremendous impact, which will be felt for many years to come. We thank Donnie for his leadership, hard work and many contributions to the revitalization of the team.


"We will now begin an immediate search for a new president and general manager, but do not have a timetable for the decision. Glen Grunwald, the Knicks' senior vice president, basketball operations, will serve as interim general manager beginning in July, overseeing all player transactions. With some of the NBA's premier players, an outstanding coach and one of the league's most passionate and loyal fanbases, we are extremely confident about the future of the Knicks franchise."
