Why Couldn"t gallo have let loose and done his thing? i've seen Wilson look lost too... neither of these kids are consistent yet, they're both still young & still figuring out how to be a consistent player at the NBA level... it's easy to praise Wilson for his awesome game the other night, he was unconscious, but we've also seen Gallo put up a 30 pt. game as well this season & this is his rookie season pretty essentially... i wouldn't trade either of these kids unless we got back a real nice player or a high ceiling prospect like Rubio in return. After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.

I want to see more of both guys. They both look good so far considering the lack of a PG or Leader on the floor. We have some issues but to me they aren't the problem, so why even worry about them. Let's develop Hill and try to get some more talent in here and see how they develop. Why make any kind of final judgements based off this horrid roster?
I want to see what these kids do when we have a more balanced and talented core with a lead player added to the mix. |

Before the season started Coach and Donnie Walsh said that this season is about the development of both Gallo
& Chandler.... So far nothing has changed nor have I read or heard neither one even mention that Chandler is available. Not even the Rumors have Chandler going anywhere.. So WTF?....... Why are we talking bout a non-subject!! Chandler the last game looked unstoppable and his game has evolved this year even with the worst PG in the Gallo by far is my Favorite Knick hands down!!...... He has had as good a year as Chandler I would like to keep both players but if the plan is Lebron Chandler will have no home here! So if we can get say Rubio for Chandler I am all for it! If it's to trade him for nothing I say NO!! KNICKS on the way UP!!!

Gallo isn't a guard or breakdown penetration artist. He could develope his one on one moves to be a bit more of a crunchtime threat but let's give him a chance to develop. He hasn't even played 82 NBA games yet!!!!

It's as if someone has to smack him up side the head to get any fire from him. When a defender plays you in such a manner as to take away your primary weapon(the 3 ball) then high IQ kicks in to bring on your secondary move. We are challenged to name that move. His defense, while adequate at times, is a half step slow. This enables him to block shots on help defense, but lets him be beat man on man. The arguement that this is his rookie season does not hold water. He has been playing starter minutes for a large portion of the season. If, at the beginning of the next season, or after the expected trade of Harrington we do not see a significant jump in productivity, then i'm afraid that some of the shine will be off of this pick.

It is funny because some people say it is a strength and I remember reading different scouting reports on him pre-draft where some scouts called it a strength and others called it a weakness. Gallo has a high dribble and looks for the ball when he is dribbling. I think he will be a crunchtime threat like Reggie Miller was eventually.

I don't think any of the gallo fans are... we are just not blinded by hate where we have to accentuate his defeciencies in order to prove that gallo is human and to somehow try to mitigate his popularity within the knick fanbase... If people are looking for a flawless player, then I am sorry, the are in the wrong universe.. that guy doesn't exist.... Every single player in this league has flaws, what I don't get is how some people feel the need to keep bringing up his flaws everytime they see a thread where gallanari receives some sort of praise.. Anyone who sits around and waits for the lottery to better themselves, either in real life or in sports, Is a Loser...............

To me the real is simple: The top three players we are targeting are wing players. Bron, Wade, Joe J
Only if we end up getting Bosh does Wil Chan become valuable. So trying to give him up in trade to dump Jeffries is a higher percentage move. TKF on Melo ::....he is a punk, a jerk, a self absorbed out of shape, self aggrandizing, unprofessional, volume chucking coach killing playoff loser!!
