  • Analysis:

    The Knicks have a new regime in place, and they have a lot of work to do. It's going to take a while, but Donnie Walsh and Mike D'Antoni have a plan that begins with becoming more flexible financially. Priority No. 1 on the court has to be finding a floor leader, one that can run D'Antoni's system and bring all the talent on the roster together.

    From The Media:

    "Walsh acknowledged that he will consider all options with the pick, which includes trading it. With Stephon Marbury headed into the final year of his contract, the Knicks might be more inclined to draft a point guard, and there are several in this draft to consider. Also, last year's first-round pick, Wilson Chandler, plays the same position as Gallinari. Chandler showed signs late in the season of having the kind of tools - athleticism, shooting ability - D'Antoni loves to use in his system."
