If they say he can shoot, I trust that. In certain close game situations it is nice to have someone who can shoot put in there.

Nate Robinson, or maybe gallo, hell even acrwford or Duhon, should be shooting in game ending situations light-years before Roberson.

Roberson better be a hell of a lot better than he looked even in summer league!

I wasn't clear. What I'm saying is that at the end of the game or in a close game situation they are going to put guys out there who can shoot. You are correct, first it goes to Nate, Gallo, etc but then... Roberson. I'm not saying I like having him. I'm just saying he probably is a good shooter. I'd rather have Ewing as a 15th man, Roberson as 14th and James at home.

EMS,

You're assuming Roberson will be dressed for the games.

I think he will be inactive.

lol @ being BANNED by Martin since 11/07/10 (for asking if Mr. Earl had a point). Really, Martin? C'mon. This is the internet. I've seen much worse on this site. By Earl himself. Drop the hypocrisy.

This reminds me of the time the Knicks cut Demetris Nichols about a year ago. People were upset because we lost a great talent who happened to be picked in the second round. I rather we kept Ewing than Roberson, but neither of them will ever be that good.

i agree, i don't think it'll effect the franchise much 1 way or the other, but speaking for myself i'm just questioning the logic behind the move... this isn't even much of a question of saving money either so u can't use that as a reason for it... just doesn't make much sense to me.
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.

However, I did understand your point and here is what I am saying: At the end of a game, Roberson is not taking any big shots. He is not on the floor. His use is for blowouts. I'd rather see baby ewing cramming it than Roberson chucking it when I watch me some blowout!


oohah

Yes, oohah, I would have to agree. During garbage time, I would have rather seen Patrick Ewing Jr. make an exciting play or two, or even look lost, than watch Roberson who has absolutely no use to this team!
