Brayden Burries = Kobe Bufkin 2.0

With the Hawks projected to take one of the talented guards in this deep class, I think it's important to understand what some of these archetypes are.

Burries in particular is giving me PTSD. He's another one of those "plays the right way, swiss army knife" guards, with comps like Derrick White and Jalen Suggs. And honestly, he's not really a point guard at all, he's more of an off-guard.

What do yall think? I personally would rather take Mara than a low-ceiling guard like Burries.

To be clear, I'm not saying Bufkin nor Burries are bad players, obv Kobe was derailed by injuries. But at the same time, Bufkin wasn't able to adapt to the PG role in the NBA.

This series is far from over, and I hope we can show some life in Game 6... but with that being said, I think some of us need a reminder about just how young this roster is.

For reference, there's not a single Knicks starter who's younger than ANY OF: JJ, Dyson, NAW, OO, Kuminga, ZR etc.

This team has greatly exceeded expectations and has shown to have multiple young studs destined to blossom into top tier talent in this league. I know we all want them to start winning right away but good teams follow a schedule and being too ahead of schedule fux things up (i.e. the Trae Young Hawks).

We may not win a championship this year.. but just know we have bright days ahead!
