After the Warriors took Stephen Curry, the New York Knicks adjusted to take Arizona forward Jordan Hill, who gives the club much-needed rebounding help and insurance should restricted free agent David Lee leave. Hill is a skilled player who should help bolster New York's post game and has the ability to run the floor in Mike D'Antoni's offense. The Knicks obviously were relishing the opportunity to take Curry (as were the fans in attendance, who greeted Hill with a round of boos), but Hill would be a solid starter or key reserve. Hill could become the best player in the lottery in a few years -- behind Blake Griffin.

Another disappointing draft for the game's Most Embarrassing Arena to play in. New York fans are disgusted with ownership and ashamed of the talent that is representing this city. THE PLACE THAT BROUGHT THE GAME TO WHERE IT WAS AND THE PLACE THAT WILL BRING THE GAME DOWN because of lack of interest and continual disappointment for NY fans. I gave up my season tickets 3 years ago and I think I went to 2 games last year. 2010 will be the year the NBA really feels it and it's demise will start when THE WORLDS MOST FINNICKY AND CHAMPIONSHIP STARVED ARENA WINDS UP EMPTY EVERY NIGHT NEXT YEAR!! GOOD BYE NBA!! GOOD BYE MR. DOLAN!!

Knicks fans are jackasses. Booing a draft pick is just pathetic.
