I couldn't agree with you more. You can see that his body is twisted and crooked. His hips are way out of whack, which then causes his back, neck, and shoulders to be out of line. A good chiropractor is needed but most adjust the hips wrong and make it worse. I know a good chiropractor who deals with this very successfully. I will try to ask him. Unfortunately, he is in the mid-west.

I would love to see a picture of Danilo standing when he played in Italy and compare it to the Knicks photo. If he stood straight in Italy, then it WAS the Knicks training routine that threw his back out.

I think that people are overanalyzing his appearance.

He does need to get stronger, however, his quickness/speed seems ok to me, and will get better as he matures. He seemed faster yesterday in terms of transition to the fast break, and he will be faster as the season progresses.

He is also becoming one of the better help defenders on the Knicks.

I will say, however, that of all the people in the draft, including those drafted before we picked, B. Lopez might have been best addition to this team other than Derrick Rose, or perhaps Westbrook, in my opinion. I don't know what MDA wants in a center, but Lopez has a much more complete game than I thought he had, and would have made this team better with his presence in the middle.

By the end of their careers, assuming that injuries don't have an influence, I think Gallinari will be better than Gordon or Bayless because he has a more complete game. Physically, they are a year or two ahead of Gallinari, but when he catches up (assuming the back is not an issue)I think he will be a more valuable player than either of those guys.


The Rooster does, however, have a stance similar to this guy:

Forget Brook Lopez
I think 90% of Knick fans would trade Gallinari for any one of Javalle Mcgee Maresse Speights Deandre Jordan Kosta Koufus in a nanosecond. We need a C more than we need Gallinari.

The way some of you talk about him, you'd expect him to look like Gheorge Muresan:

Looking kinda straightthere. Maybe it was the Knicks' weight training?

Actually it looks like he's struggling to stand up straight.

The guy is damaged goods.

This thread should be made sticky to see how Galo will progress.
Somebody will be busted for sure...

have him break out the three ring socks and old school shorts and then lets see if he looks funny

Man, two pages on a kid with bad posture. What's the point? It was talked about in his draft write-up. There are many items to break down on how his game will translate to the NBA, his bad posture is not one of them. What's next go after his lazy eye.

And what if he likes pizza and spagetty too much?

This has become a very strange thread.

One can imagine Briggy yelling at the TV:

"gosh darnnit! I'd have taken 10 players over him!"

"Who daddy who?"

" That tall Eye Taliian kid!" The one who looks like Benjamin Button"

" Daddy, he looks like a movie star, he is cute!!"

" No girl, look at him! He is not standing up straight!"

" Daddy, what about the bald on with the towel and Tatoo on his head?"

" Thats Starbury, he is not on the floor"

"Or the fat one daddy, the one Fat one, what about him?"

" No honey, they are funny too, but this one is standing crooked!"

" Daddy, he is walking!"

" Oh!"

" Daddy?"

"yes pumpkin"

" Who is Rodney White?"

" Go to bed honey, its late"

" I love you daddy!"

" I love you too sweety!"
