It's an easy sell...
Blue chip prospect... you can claim he worships Zeke to give old school diehards a "way in"
Give him a facebook page and a twitter account so the new school kids can "get to know him" on a "personal" level
Have him put up videos of him playing whatever NBA game is the popular choice on Xbox/PS3 these days and sit down interviews conducted by Joe Dumars himself where Knight comes across as a humble, well spoken young man that respects veterans and loves the game and is "living the dream"
In other words he gets a Zach Ryder push - which allows the fans to accept him for who he is...
As opposed to giving him the John Cena push that Stuckey got. Stuckey was pushed on to a pedestal he didn't deserve and fans turned on him
There is your Piston Main Event for 2012-2013: Knight v Stuckey...
Also on that show is Jason Maxiell v Ben Wallace - the younger often lazy beast vs the mentor he refused to listen to or follow
Plus we'll have a match up between Austin Daye and Tayshaun Prince. One guy worked hard to get respected and the other seems content to waste all the potential in the world.
Behind the scenes though change is coming... a new suit holds all the keys while the Fat Man is on the clock: Fix it or else Fat Man
Mmmm someone get me Jeff Katz - I smell a sitcom
