How New York let this burgeoning post scorer go, at any price, we'll never understand. Butler's defense won't remind anyone of David Robinson, but he averaged 5.3 points in 13.5 minutes as a 20-year-old last season and has an array of promising moves in the low block. The youngster's biggest issue? Foul trouble -- he averaged 6.3 for every 40 minutes he played last year. Yet the player the Knicks chose over him (beleaguered big man Jerome James) averaged an even 10 for the same time frame. Go figure.
