I fricking hate these rookies who try and demand where they play. Playing in the NBA is a blessing. Shut your trap and you can pick where you play in 5 years.

I think its about time that we make these draftees get basically nothing if they leave after 5 years. This has gotten out of hand and it is making the league unwatchable and unfair for the small markets.

Is he gonna be any better than Rodney Hood?

this is the arse-hat that was boo'ing and making all the faces when the Pels got the first pick, right?

Happens in baseball all the time.
I get it, wouldn't you rather make the decision where you work rather than have it be dictated to you?

ESPN has started this mess with essentially telling a prospect where to go before he even gets drafted.

Didn’t he just say the opposite in an interview?

He was in New York and visiting the Knicks while saying this. He might actually mean it but his just catering to the fan base and starting to build the relationship. If he went somewhere else, he’s not gonna cry about it

So I guess the Knicks are not a trading partner. Good to know. Thanks Barrett.

Right, the other day he was on the Jump and said he'd be happy to play wherever he was drafted.

How'd that work out for Kristaps?

Idk why y'all care about him so much. Cameron Reddish was the second best player on that team anyway. Barrett is overrated IMO.

The difference between being picked 3rd and 4th is $20.5 million vs $18.5 million over the first 3 years. The $2 million difference should be a drop in the bucket compared to his career earnings, but I don't blame him for trying to maximize his early earnings.

I'm not the biggest fan of Barrett's game but Reddish was not good last yr.
Reddish was the 3rd best prospect coming into the yr and look how he fell. Reddish is the classic looks the part but his bball IQ isn't there.

Really meaningless. If NY passes and Lakers or another team takes him, he’ll be just fine and dandy.
