I guess the question is: Who would you rather have? Ramon Sessions or Hakim Warrick?

i'd prefer warrick over dlee.

I'd rather have sessions but if Lee falls through Warrick is a good fall back and he can slam dunk it good.

why does everyone love sessions so much?

because he's so good and on the Knicks he would put up 15/8.3/3.9 on 47 fg% and run us into the play offs.

He averaged 15/8/4 as a starter last year. And that was his FIRST full season in the league.

Sessions: 17% from down town.

Is that a good fit for us? No, it's not, and it's not a fit for any guard.

In this offense any player who is on the perimeter and can't shoot from there is a liability. They're a Malik Rose or Jared Jeffries offensively.

What happens is the opponent knows they can't shoot and figures out which player to double team that they want to pass it to.

It ends in failure.

No thanks.

Sessions may be an 18% shooter from 3point land but his overall shooting number is 45% which is not too bad, and his 3-point shooting was only 4% of his total shots (6-34 for the total year while taking a total 775 shots). Does it mean he is a player who plays within his own game (for a young player that's pretty smart) or is it someone whose shot is so broken from distance that he just can't do it (Rajon Rondo anyone? numbers: 2007-08 reg season 3-points: 5-17 (29%), 2008-09 reg season 3-points: 15-48 (31%)).

Lots of similarities in Sessions and Rondo's shooting % numbers.

No.

I hope we get Sessions. I think Bucks going to match any offers for him even a full mle. I like Warrick and think he will be a sicko player who can help Knicks with all around type play.

"Does it mean he is a player who plays within his own game" Good point! Never thought of it like that. It is another plus for Sessions as a prof player. His lifetime (2 seasons - 96 games) from 3 pt is 22% but also he only takes .4 attempts/game from the 3 pt range. And probably many of them are at the buzzer to end the half or game, etc. So he does know his limitations.

His FG% is 44.4% - but many of his shots are driving to the basket. I think the league will wise up to him - they won't play him close and just wait for him to try to drive in for a lay up.

Still his lack of ability to shoot from beyond the arc which is a crucial part of the MDA offense will hurt our game. So unless we sign 2 other guards who can hit 40% from 3 pt, then I vote No to signing Sessions.
