- were 20mill over the cap, so we cant sign any big free agents
- we only have one 3mill midlevel exception - here are a list of players that (i think) would sign in the 3mil range PG AJ price/jose calderon Knicks should be improved: win about 40 games and maybe sneak into the playoffs. Melo, Rose and even Noah will have some nice moments however this team should be about PORZINGUS. the sooner they make him the primary player, the better

I think this is ageism. I think we should try an older PG. Get Clyde out there. I'd rather watch him play than announce the game. And I think he'd do it too.

I am starting to think the Knicks either take a point or a big in the draft. Can't wait for those rumors to start.

Look at the age of the PG's on other teams? Deron Williams and Chris Paul would be nice but we arent getting those guys. NY Knicks - Retirement home for players and GMs

Nah I disagree I think Jennings is trash. He's a better version of Toney Douglas.

Well, if we're not going to contend for a championship, we might as well have comedic/entertainment value. Let's hope the Bucks don't extend a QO and let's go for it!

AnubisADL wrote:Knicks need a young PG to pair with Shumpert. How do you want Brandon Jennings but not Rajon Rondo? As for Jennings, I have no idea how to feel about him. I'm put off by his shooting percentage but a lot of that is a byproduct of the Bucks kicking it to him with 5 seconds on the clock and him having to create a shot in that period of time. Because of that I have no idea of what kind of shooter he is or can truly be if put on a real team. I also don't care for his turnovers but that happens with any quality PG, so I can't judge him too harshly for it. At this point, we need a guy who can consistently get into the paint and kick to the open man which Jennings does in spades so maybe we should role the dice on a sign and trade. Personally, I'd prefer Rondo and would try to orchestra 3 team deal sending Jennings and filler to BOS for Rondo. |

Smart Money Says....
"I hate that I really value efficiency. Because I look around the league sometimes and I see a guy shooting 41, 42 percent from the field and I'm like, 'Wow, they're just hoisting up shots and they don't care.' I guess that's that freedom, but I don't have that mindset. I want to be as efficient as possible." 39 PACENT.....NO! |

He's awful! That game, several years ago where he scored a lot of points in his rookie year seems to have fooled people into thinking he's a great PG. He's not- bad skills, bad game, low bball IQ and lousy attitude. No thanks.

i agree. BJennings is awful. besides we dont have the money to sign him

We need a Tashwan Taylor type, a second round guy with low cost and develop. Not everyone has to be a "brand name" proven commodity (aka: OLD!) somtimes. Fewer starphuch names.
Players with upside. Young legs. |

Hhhmmmmmm. I wonder why. Jennings is no Chris Paul but he is above average for sure. NY Knicks - Retirement home for players and GMs

Not sure if he is worth the headache. |

They only qualified for the playoffs, because the other eastern teams were so bad- they were terrible down the stretch and didn't deserve to make the playoffs. 38-44 record is an achievement nowadays and the mark of a good player? Really? |
