Knicks Draft: Looking for Role Players

So, Word on the Tweet, says that the Knicks will be looking for a role player with the 24th pick in the first round of tonight's NBA draft.  I understand that they want to go for a title this year before blowing it up again next summer, but in the Knicks current roster position, they should be looking for another Shumpert pick with both now skills and athletic upside.   They should be finding their role players in the D-league, and over seas, like they have been doing, and not using a rare number 1 pick to draft an eventual trade throw-in.   NBA rosters are too small and too select to aiming for floors instead of ceilings in the draft.   Especially for a team that never has #1 picks, like the Knicks.   So let's hope they do something a little more bad ass than get a role player with their only pick tonight.  Go Knicks?

Get me a guy who can drill 3 pointers, yet still create a bit off the dribble.

And figure out a way to keep Copeland, even if it means bye-bye to JR.
