i felt he should’ve been a late 1st round pick…

You mean, 39th pick… Landry Fields was the 39th pick.. the 43rd pick was Devin Ebanks…

Fields has been really impressive… People were right when they said "don’t sleep on this kid"…LOL…

lots of people were criticizing the pick when it was made. FIelds was one of the most slept on players in america last year. I dont care how down the pac was, 22 and 9 while putting a mediocre team on your back every night is impressive. He was the best player in the conference last year but didnt get the recognition or the conference mvp becasue his team was bad.

Rudeboy, you say you felt he should have gone 1st round last year, but i dont remember anybody stepping up and saying that before the draft. ANd i just checked your 2010 mock and you had him going undrafted.

perez, I was one of those guys who laughed at the pick and how the crazy Knicks fans reacted to it… They were happy to get Rautins but booed a little bit when they drafted Fields… The turn of the tide has come… Fields has been way more impressive so far compared to Rautins… I thought they’d be bringing another Luke Jackson type but clearly, he’s IQ is awesome not to mention he’s very coachable out there… good pick for the Knicks… I was wrong..

the thing i found funny was that out of 30 players picked in the second round including andy rautins who went ahead of him to the knicks. Nobody got the negative response on this site that fields did. I guess thats becasue aran didnt include him any mocks and he didnt play in the big east.

I cannot recall either Fields or Rautins being on any of the major mock drafts run by sites like these pre-draft and when NY took them both, a lot of people including myself were surprised as several well touted prospects were still on board then. But Donnie Walsh and his scouts must have seen something and for Landry to crack Mike D’Antoni’s roster let alone get a starting role is a major achievement as Coach D’Antoni is well known for only using guys he considers NBA ready.

Whilst a lot of fans look at the Knicks major signings picking up hidden gems like Fields and Mosgov could be just as important long term as they add roster depth.

I did not knock on Fields but I did wish they would have picked up Ebanks or Stephenson.  I did not know who he was originally even though I saw him play as a freshmen randomly so once i found out who he was, I was not as off on the pick but I was wondering what New York was doing.

I think he is alot like Anthony Parker of the Cavs. Seems like he could easily average 15ppg or more with a bad percentage, but he uses his skills and effort on both ends of the floor, makes smart decisions, and plays within himself. High percantage shots, good athletisism, and solid defense is what every team wants from thier role playing SG.

I personally think he can be a starting wing on a championship team

Yea I remember arguing for him because alot of people on here said he wasn’t athletic enough and he only put up
Good numbers because he was on a bad team. But if you really watches him you could see that he was a underrated athlete and he had a high basketball IQ. Even I didn’t think he would start in year one but I kept saying he’s gonna beat out Billy walker and get alot of time

I like the Anthony Parker comparision and I can see the Battier comparision in so far as Landry makes the very most of his ability and whilst he may not be the most gifted athlete he knows he has to rely on his good basketball IQ and so will make the very most of his available skillset.

I wonder how many people thought that the Knicks would have two rookies in their starting 5 let alone so early in the season!
