Back in ‘99, we took the “French pastry”, so what should we call Danilo Gallinari? The f@#king Calzone? I guess some people are saying this kid’s the next Toni Kukoc. Awesome. So he looks like a Poindexter and he’d be a great 5th option on a championship team. Would’ve been a great pick if we were the freaking Celtics. Didn’t Isiah tell Donnie Walsh during his exit interview that we lost, not won, 59 games last year? As a Knick fan, I have no choice other than to try to find the silver lining in everything, so two thoughts: 1) if this kid really is the reincarnation of Kukoc, then Donnie Walsh will look like a genius two years down the line if we really do pair him with another #23– LeBron James. We kinda put the cart before the horse, but at least there seems to be some semblance of a plan at work here; 2) the last time a coach did a favor for a family friend in the draft, it resulted in Mike Piazza being taken with the last pick in the ‘88 MLB draft. Here’s hoping history repeats itself…
