NEW YORK -- Whether it’s a spontaneous chat with Phil Jackson or the opportunity to showcase his game in the triangle, Jason Smith is downright giddy about being a Knick this coming season. Now this is what I want to hear and read..not some non funny joke about a guy name Jason smith ES

Better overall player -- Andrea Bargnani or Jason Smith?

Well, Jason Smith is on track to be the next Pete Chilcutt, and AB is going to be the new Derek Strong.

Had to dig a little on youtube for these:
One word keeps coming to mind when I think about this guy's game -- QUALITY. I'm sorry but 7' Jason Smith over a K-Mart running on fumes is a HUGE UPGRADE. Can't stop thinking about an Aldrich/Jason Smith/Melo frontcourt trio...I wanna see that configuation operate together A LOT. Everything we need -- big-time rebounding (out on a limb -- I think Cole Aldrich is an automatic double-double guy and possibly a league top-5 rebounder if he played enough), legit rim protection from the 2 bigs (twin towers effect), all-around solid/underrated play from Smith complementing possibly the best scorer in the league in Carmelo Anthony. What else do you really need? That frontcourt alignment could absolutely own it for long stretches at a time...Sprinkle in a healthy dose of Amar'e as the 3rd big with some Bargnani as needed (Bargs and Dalembert might be my odd men out to start off the season), our entire frontcourt as a whole is PLENTY GOOD when you think about it. Aldrich and Smith will need to be retained long-term. Foregone conclusion if there ever was one.. Question -- do we make a strategic effort to surpress both Aldrich and Smith this year somewhat in the hopes of keeping the pirce tag down for next summer? Or do we commit to playing both of these guys a lot this year and then cross that bridge when we get to it? |
