Right now anyone is better than who they have. Good news when you hit rock bottom you can only go up.........unless they have a shovel.

McClinton looked good in the NCAA tournament but will he really make a difference in the NBA?

Don't know anything about him- but that picture makes him look like a power forward

Given Nate Robinson's bonehead - y'd think the Knicks will learn and draft players with appropriate height...

Who??

June 9, 2009  10:57 AM ET

Why????

He can flat-out shoot the basketball. I can see him contributing a little bit in NYC.

ive seen him play a couple times...impressive shooting but undersized for an NBA guard.

Question: why does D'Antoni think it's neccessary to "buy" a pick to get this guy? He should be around in the 2nd round. His best bet is Europe.

Ahh HELLO! Are all of you effed in your heads??? The section is called "Truth and Rumors". Nobody knows what D'Antoni and the Knicks have done. You fools are so preoccupied with your love of Knick bashing, you've lost your ability to reason.

stop bashing the knick bashers...lol

I agree with the first post- once you hit rock bottom, you can only go up. Lets see the Knicks do something since they actually hame some picks this year and then go out and win some games. Made for TV drama type of stuff there... lol

The Knicks are so devoid of talent, anyone with a pulse looks good to them.

kneejerk, you a bad man. Call them the way you see them bro.

In the last week, I have read that the Knicks will move up to take Curry, draft Flynn as their starting point guard of the future and now they are eying McClinton. Is it possible to take three players with one pick? Why not just say they are eying every guard in the draft? What a waste of a thread...

Chances are, he'll go undrafted. Just sign him then...
