Sam D at 34% and 2 points and 4 rebounds---the guy has fallen off the NBA ledge. Jason Smith can still be valuable as a 10-15 minute spot jump shooter but almost everything else he brings is value less. Its probably in the Knicks best interests to play Acy Early and Cole A. Also further--while Early's body is a 3--play him at back up stretch 4. That was his pos in college--this league is different now. You dont desperately need a 245 pd 4.The veterans we brought in have been a nightmare. We wouldve done better by buying 4 2nd rounders to find two guys who could play and saved money.
I'm shocked Dalembart is even able to lace up.
I agree 100% - lets see what Cole can give you for extended minutes- 20-30 every night.
If we're losing games, lets at least build for the future.
Does Dalembart even have trade value beyond filler category? Would a playoff bound team with need for a backup/situational center like him even give us a second rounder?
