Bill Walker is a sick athlete. I just realized who he is. I saw him a few times w/ KState playing w/ Beasley. If he stays healthy and gets those hops back he would be a nice role player at the least here

The issues with him are entirely health related... not ability related DLeethal wrote:

Bill Walker can easily be our backup SF next season and beyond. He has all the tools to be a productive rotation player. I love how he always tries to dunk everything.

Nobody Plays Don Corleone Like The Answer Man
Q. franco12 - the question is do we & can we keep him? A. Yes and yes. Donnie knows the Knicks need toughness and that city edge to move the crowd. Bill Walker inherits the Latrell Sprewell Memorial Chair as a valuable reserve and crowd favorite. Rumble young man, rumble! once a knick always a knick

djsunyc - Qyntel was a cult favorite who finished high school by the skin of his teeth.
Bill Walker played for an elite college program and ran next to a certified stud in Beasley. He practiced against Paul Pierce. The Nate Robinson trade is the steal of the century. once a knick always a knick

I like him- I have to look at his D a little more closely, and you want consistency on his outside shot, but he seems to play with confidence and knows how to get to the basket. Seems like he is more of a scorer than a shooter, but he finishes well, has some creativity, and having come over from a team like the Celtics means he had some pretty good players to learn from. Could be a steal for us, though with out luck, both his knees go out of commission next game. No man is happy without a delusion of some kind.

"if I didn't have bad luck, I wouldn't have no luck at all" - unknown
Palladin55 - wash your mouth out with soap. Donnie didn't do all this heavy lifting of contracts to have us squealing like sorority girls at the sight of a mouse. Toughen up dude. Strap it up, buckle up and get back on defense! You want tough players but you act a like a panty-waisted, limp-wristed and "ooh, he touched me..." third grader afraid of his own shadow at the mere hint of an MRI. Are you an Ameri-CAN or an Ameri-CAN'T? Then again, I'm holding my breath on both of McGrady's knees for each of the next 30 days. once a knick always a knick

I hope he stays healthy. He seems like a kid with a good attitude and a world of talent. The Knicks are due some good luck.

if Walker and T-Mac stay healthy they'd be awesome at bargain basement prices to round out the roster.

He kind of looks like Eddie Curry on the court. Thankfully he plays with MUCH more passion.

If he works on his jumper, defense, and ballhandling this summer, he could really help us next year. I hope he continues to improve. We need more kids that know how to play team ball.
