I would take both

Brown reminds of a poor mans Baron Davis/Bayless/bigger JJ Barea
Tourre reminds me of a poor mans Jarret Jack before he learned to become a legit PG
Murry has very good defensive instincts to go with his size, length, and decent combination of speed/quickness/athleticism
He has the ability to defend PG, SG, and maybe even some SF like Iman, and should make the team because he has decent "potential" in addition to the injury status of JR Smith

Like Copeland, neither are REAL ROOKIES and have played around Europe/D League for some time to increase maturity, develop their games, and gain confidence
I hope this time, we at least get a 2nd year TEAM option, and would give them a 2 year partial guarantees vs just a 1 year vet min deal

Rather would have used the rest of the MLE to have partial guarantees on 1st year, team options on 3 year deals for low risk/high reward
At worse we cut them and if they become rotational players, they are locked in for 3 years at a cheap salary had we went this route
And we would have full bird rights in the summer after the 2015 FA class where we are looking to rebuild through UFA's

I think this guy needs to be signed. If he wants to take what we can offer then sign him. The knicks platters will love his game. Woodson will try to bench him at first but he will eventually breakout done Linsanity on that as by December.

I like this dude so much i would trade Felton if we signed him and keep Murry as the 3rd pg.

I get the feeling that if both players are signed, somebody is getting traded. Whether it be Shumpert or Felton. They"re looking to keep one roster spot vacant for any late pickup, and they need front court help to do battle in the playoffs. It's just a mattere of time.

Zwerling also reported that the Knicks worked out Austin Daye. Would love to add Daye to the Knicks.

They better assure this dude that he would be the primary backup behind/playing with Felton. Also, they might want to guarantee him 20 mins a night. This could be why they lost Brooks -- Prigioni needs to be relegated to 3rd PG on the depth chart imo.

Brooks said that he really considered NY but didn't want to move his kids again.

I'm really bad at scouting talent- what does BRIGGS think of him?

He seems to want the Knicks, if you look at his twitter. But then again, maybe he was just using us to drive up his value, like every other FA in NBA history!

I'm glad brooks is back with the rockets.

Bobby brown is good enough to beat Felton for minutes. I think he's good enough to trade Felton especially since we have priggy

Zwerling said in his chat that he thinks Brown is better than Udrih for the Knicks.

Interesting, Brown has actual minutes played in the nba and the numbers he put do not look so great.

The deal with him is that he stunk the first time in the nba, and even last summer league he was over dribbling. However apparently he's sorting his game out while playing in Italy, and has corrected most of his flaws. Genuinely have no idea if he has- I'm a bit wary that he's supposedly fixed everything in the past year while abroad, but I've no idea.

want to say that I read an article over the past few days that said the same but that he has also made some great strides in Europe this past year.
