I like Obi Toppin as a player but I always worry about kids going to play in their home city. Hopefully that's not an issue for him.

I think the Knicks went with the best player that would make highlight reels because I'm not sure they needed a forward

I would have taken him at 6 if our guy hadn’t been there. He’s dynamic. -- nm - David Nov 18, 18:06 6
- He's exciting and I enjoyed seeing him play. But the Knicks just love forwards and he's 22 so on the old side for a draft pick. - Krusty Nov 18, 18:09 5
  - Dayton was 29-2. It's like when Kawhi Leonard elevated San Diego State. -- nm - David Nov 18, 18:33
  - That’s hysterical to me that 22 is a bad thing. Duncan, Jordan, Olajuwon, David Robinson, Shaq...all were Juniors or older. - Will Hunting Nov 18, 18:21 1
    - In the last 20 years guys drafted at 22 or later haven't done all that great. I'm not saying it will be an issue for him but it is - Krusty Nov 18, 18:25
  - I hope he becomes your new favorite Jedi -- nm - crash davis Nov 18, 18:18 1
    - I really root for Brooklyn but I want the Knicks to do well and I'm always happy when a NY team is winning. -- nm - Krusty Nov 18, 18:25
