Gallo has proven that good things happen when he gets the ball!!

He killed it in the post yesterday and yet was just the first time he got passes down low!!

Started when Fishlips found him cutting!! Too bad our PG's have yet to find him!!

Our guards don't give the ball cause they are jealous that the only player on our team
with a secure future is GALLO!!!!

Lee has proven he can handle the post quite well on the offensive end!! Gallo can handle the rest of the floor
just needs the ball to go through him A LOT MORE!!!!

Why people can't recieve that Briggs boggles my mind.

The Raptor game was for all the marbles , all of Italy was watching.

Bargs for Toronto came out to perform as such and Gallup was nervous and confused

I think he needs to go down into the post early in the game to get into it. Games where we are down 25 and he is getting superior looks are somewhat tainted. He's young and getting better--he just needs to get his head into the game earlier and work inside out. When we get down quite a bit Gallo is usually 1-6 or something and Jefferies and Duhon arent scoring. What he has to do is use his size to get easy looks at the bucket early--maybe get fouled a bit and then work the full game.

If not first option then he should be 2nd option only to Lee.

so for those of you who dont understand these stats (FACTS) let me explain. If you took Gallo's clutch #s (explained above) and computed them over 48 minutes he would be..
He would be +15 in points
His FG% would be 50%, is EFG% (even MORE important) an amazing 64%
The Knicks would outscore opponents 129 to 110

So for those of you who claim Gallo pads his stats in meaningless games or blowout scores you are so far from the truth its just silly.

LOL... why can't we receive what? an unproven claim by briggs?

And all the marbles? what was on the line? when I checked, gallo was equally as good as bargs... being down by double digits doesn't mitigate a persons performance.. there was no garbage time in a game that saw a lead cut from 23 to 9 with plenty of time left..

Bargs for Toronto came out to perform as such and Gallup was nervous and confused

why make it so obvious, your agenda here?

the only one confused is you. It boggles my mind as well as others I'm sure, why you can't see that..

The game was heralded the Italian NIGHT showdown at MSG Bargs vs Gallanari , why do you think all of the Italian media Hype was at the game from Italy ?

Why do you think the 3 Italians playing for each team took PICTURES at Center court? Even the announcers hyped it up .

Why do you think when Bargs jumped up and down after the facial over Lee it caused D. Lee get out of character and bump bargs and receive a tech.

WHAT GAME WERE YOU GUYS WATCHING ?

Like Briggs stated I think gallo needs to get knocked around a bit early to get his head into the game, because he obviously wasn't ready.

Later on he was the gallanari we have grown to depend on, but early this kid couldn't knock down shots or finish in close.

After he made a layup, then he got into the game.
