    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Q: Any thoughts about Milwaukee having the eighth pick?

    Hinrich: There’s so much speculation. I’ll just have to wait and see. I think they’re interested, but anything can happen. I worked out there and had a pretty good workout.

    Q: Would that be an okay fit for you?

    Hinrich: Yeah, I could play in Milwaukee. I’m confident that wherever I go, I feel like I’m adjustable and coachable, and I’ll go in and make any situation turn out okay for me.

    Q: Do you feel like you’ll be able to play the one or the two?

    Hinrich: I think so, but I think I’m a natural point guard, and that’s the position I’ll play most of the time. I’m versatile enough to guard a two, but I know I’m a point guard.

    Q: Where do you think the Knicks are with you?

    Hinrich: I don’t know. I went in there, things went pretty well. I really have no clue to be honest.

    Q: How did things go with Pat Riley in Miami?

    Hinrich: It went real well. They told me they still weren’t sure what they were going to do, but that’s what everybody says. They’re not just going to come out and tell you what they’re thinking.

    Q: What has the workout process been like?

    Hinrich: I’ve worked out for nine teams. It’s definitely an interesting process. You’re in and out of all these cities, constantly getting questions thrown at you, with teams wanting to learn everything they can about you. It’s an interesting process.

    Q: Do you feel like you’ve had to convince teams that you are a point guard?

    Hinrich: That’s a question I get a lot, because I’ve had to play off the ball the last couple of seasons, but I think going into these workouts, it was a no-brainer. I showed them I could play the point.

    Q: Is it fitting that you and Nick Collison are going through this process together?

    Hinrich: I’m real happy for him. I’m glad that he’s going to be a high pick, and whatever team takes him is going to be lucky. They’re going to get a great player who’s not going to cause any problems and is going to contribute.

    Kirk is a very good PG....

    i think he would best fit with the New York Knicks.

    I think they should go after a big man first, and they got Milos Vujanic from last years draft.

    Seems Milos Vujanic has signed for a team in spain for 3 years...so he won't be joining them for a while
