knicks are desperate for perimeter depth. this guy's got an NBA body and can obviously score the ball. bring him into camp and see what he can do. like the signing a lot; love that we are going over to EUR and scouting these guys. prigioni (spanish league), flight white (italian), and copeland (belgium) all could be strong, cheap pickups.

grunwald is savvy.

I am not very bright, can you give your review without the sarcasm and speak regularly.

just making sure, I get the impression you think he sucks right?

We needed someone behind Melo and this guy is a SF with a similar style of play. No complaints about him not having a well rounded offensive game. Inside and outside game looks decent so it's a good move IMO. The thing I like is that since this is a NOW team, Glen has done the right thing going with players that should be hungry after playing in Europe and with the playing experience they have it should make for some really solid performances off the bench.

Basically Glen is following the San Antonio model of really mining the Euro Leagues for talented role players and prospects. If you don't have draft picks this is one way to find players that can fill needs. You don't always have to look for stars when a solid role player can help so much.

I think Nalod just got laid and was just doing his cigarette after-thing whilst checking some ultimateknicks. Now he's back to his woman.

Prob wore his Jorts outfit to spice things up tonight

John Wallace might be another good comparison. I would like them to sign more of physical banger type, but whatever. This don't will probably spend most of the season on the inactive list anyway.

it is a non guaranteed contract, just to get a better look at him.

Anthony Tolliver
Deshaun Stevenson
Delonte West

Louis Amudson *backup PF on Pacers*
Kenyon Martin

Tolliver has the size to play both Forward spots and he iss a good rebounder.

I think these are all steals at vet min.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

But glad to see the Knicks are looking in all areas in improving the team.
Most importantly, with an UNGUARANTEED contract to get a better look evaluating him in the summer league.

Hollis Thompson is a 6'8 SG/SF was just signed by OKC that I really wanted to grab with Alex Young 6'6.

Undrafted Players
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jacob Pullen, Tony Mitchel, and Alex Young are players that were undrafted.
Pullen was last year's undrafted and played in D League that Briggs brought up, currently on Utah's summer league I think

On our Summer League Roster, I would like to take a good look at
============================================================================
Mustapha Farrakhan G 6-4, 181

Artsiom Parakhouski C 6-9 207

Wesley Witherspoon F 6-9 207

Ahmad Nivins F 6-9 207

lol... You are hyped up, bruh!

Raef LaFrenz. Yes, he took it there.


I observed the same "Sprewell-esque" similarities, too. Talent and Fire. We'll soon see if he has the lethal combination on a consistent basis like Spree did, too.

Another season, and more adversity to persevere through. We will get the job done, even BETTER than last year. GO KNICKS!

If he can hit a shot Kidd will find him.

Plus he is a seasoned vet. Cant complain about this pickup.

I might be going out on a limb here, but these are numbers from ....Belgium? Wily vet or no, is Belgium really that close to the NBA? Something might be lost in translation.

As long as he is more consistent than Billy Walker he will be o.k. Also, lets not forget that he will just play a role here and not be a star. Defense, threes, and rebound plus post up maybe.

peep it yourself....the talent isn't the nba but skill does translate everywhere....there will be a certain issues like confidence and rules, but the dude is american.....born in orange, new jersey. Shouldn't be so bad. We're not gonna ask him to drop 20 pts a game for us....he'll be looked at to backup Melo....he also has to earn trust over a guy like Novak, with James White also here with something to prove.

Fun!!!!

Good point, I was thinking Spanish league. Must have confused where he was from.
