He seems like the new fan favorite, but there is definitely a lot to like about the guy. Looks like hes a great influence on the team I mean just look at this interview with the guy.. http://video.msg.com/Home/Ronny-Turiaf-at-World-Basketball
I don't think there will be a problem unless somebody wants to make a problem, ... If they really want to make a problem, they're going to have to make a decision about how they want to spend their adult life in terms of playing in the NBA or not.

We'll see, NY fans dont take a liking to players who play hard and dumb.
Like getting a steal, then turning it over, or getting a dunk (that would have sealed a victory) then hanging on the rim and recieving a tech... ES

kniks1248 - so now, according to you, Turiaf plays, "hard and dumb?"
Please explain the relevance of Al Harrington to this discussion of Ronny Turiaf as a leader who has taken the initiative to unite teammates this Summer. Please once a knick always a knick

Malik was a no talent bum who was too small to play PF.

Turiaf will have a nice impact on this team, but there is no way I see him staying past the trade deadline.
If he exercises his player option for the following year at about 4.5mil, we won't have the cap space for Melo and be able to retain Chandler. I really hope it does not come down to a choice between the two, because most people would pick Chandler. He has more upside and is a 2 way player. I could see him getting traded for a future 1st to Lakers, Mavs, Magic, or Celtics at the deadline. |

I think Anthony Randolph will be the fan favorite.
If you are still following the team and reading sites like this, there is nothing, short of your own demise, that is going to throw you off this train.

"but then malik rose use to say and do the same things.."
Malik Rose? Why would you select the worst possible example of a community-minded former Knicks player to make your wacky comparison? knicks1248 - Why didn't you choose a 6'9 Knicks player, acquired via trade, who was a leader in the mold of Terry Cummings, Len Elmore, Jerry Lucas or Neal Walk? Did you ever watch Turiaf with the Lakers or Warriors? once a knick always a knick

(and wanting the coach to start him.) i like turiaf a lot, but he is not on the same level as JYD. we saw a pale shadow of JYD here. jerome williams on the raptors was one of the best energy bigs in the league for a few years. turiaf can be a solid role player, but he's no JYD. ¿ △ ?
