But just from videos of practice and college I really really like him to have a rondo type of game
With a much better jumper and much more athletic ability ...

With scorers like Amare and Melo and Tyson on the block I believe Iman will be a perfect
Starting PG

My opinion

While I think he still has game in him, can play the PnR probably better than anyone except in the near future of Iman, IF HES HEALTHY.
I wouldn't offer him a contract till hes ready to practice.
If he truly has intentions of coming, he will sit back, recover, and rehab then prove he is ready while getting in shape.
If he is just looking for another contract while he is already making good money and is hurt, I want no part of it.
We are limited on roster spots as is, we can't pray he will recover, and then contribute...the injury sounds serious to me, for anyone whoever had a herniated back/disc b4...

Jorts could be an option at b/u PF. Liked what i saw at the practice. A bench of Douglas, Iman, Jorts, JEfries could score rebound and defend

He will likely be ready in 2-3 weeks, which is fine because we need to give Douglas and Iman some run now anyway. But when playoff time hits, a guy like Davis can push you over the top. Knicks need to go after him hard.

Just don't see Outlaw clearing waivers. That kid that GS released might actually work out. He can definitely score and with TD, Iman, Jeffries and jorts the D could be a good mix of scoring and defense

Maybe Toney looks better today but from what I saw the most pressing need might be Davis.

I just think that Melo is going to be more of a facilitator. He's not Kobe or MJ, but I think the Knicks see this roster like some of those teams or like Miami. What we need to really separate us though is strengthening the bench. Outlaw or Pietrus would work.

The Heat still want a point guard, too. I'm sure they'll be one of the finalists for Baron's services.

Considering our four failures to date in trying to secure a player for the room exception,
it would not surprise me if Baron chooses the Heat over us. I HATE to say this, BUT with the addition of Shane Battier to their Big Three, they have to be the favorites to come out of the East. Diddy is playing it coy....he's in no rush to jump....he'll probably watch the early part of the season unfold and then make a choice. I can't blame him...he's got his money guaranteed from the Cavs and he wants a ring.
