Welcome to the Knicks, Jordan Hill. Certainly not the first draft pick by the Knicks to be booed, Hill didn't exactly get a standing ovation once his name was announced.

New York fans were and probably still are very bitter at the fact that they were just one pick away from Stephen Curry. Meanwhile, I think the Timberwolves just drafted ANOTHER guard. Interesting draft to say the least. Tonight, it is the NHL's turn.

The Knicks have reportedly bought the Lakers' first-round pick (29th overall) for close to $3 million. The Knicks had been actively pursuing picks late in the first round. Expect a VERY busy day in the NBA. Another rumor that has begun swirling around the league as we head into tonight's draft is the Rockets sending Tracy McGrady, Aaron Brooks and Carl Landry to the Suns for Amare Stoudemire and Leandro Barbosa.

One of Patrick Ewing's guarantees finally came true as the Magic beat the Celtics last night in game 7 of their Eastern Conference Semi-Final series. Ewing, back in 2000, guaranteed that the Knicks would win game 6 of their Eastern Conference Final against the Indiana Pacers and send it back to Indiana for a seventh and deciding game. Yeah, didn't happen.


Now, 99% of the time, the guarantees that come true are the ones that are remembered, and most forget about those that failed. Patrick's guarantee nine years ago still stings to this day for Knicks' fans as it serves as the last glimmer of any kind of success that the team has had, (I dont count getting swept by the Nets in the first round of the 2002-03 playoffs).
