Dont be surprised if he is the Knicks third string C. From watching Knick tendencies I can tell they like their big men if they can shoot it. Kirk would cost 1/5 of what Jason Smith cost in a year where they are going to be cheap with the 11-15 guys to conserve cap space.

A limited athlete, though. Poor man's Kaman, perhaps.

Like to see what kind of shape he is in now.

Maybe we catch a break.

Also working out with Memphis' SL team.

I think Jordan Bachynski is in play for a roster spot next season.

More the merrier.

They are also looking at Vitor Faverani, I think.

Wonder if our Frenchman will be around this year.

Shotgun approach- aim and hope a few pellets hit the target.

When he coached the Bulls, he had a bunch of bigs who were not prime athletes, but they could bang the boards a bit, pass, set screens, hit a short to midrange J, and in one memorable instance, take 3 steps without a dribble and make a big shot at the basket against the Knicks.

this guy isnt an NBA athlete.

Knicks should be improved: win about 40 games and maybe sneak into the playoffs. Melo, Rose and even Noah will have some nice moments however this team should be about PORZINGUS. the sooner they make him the primary player, the better

Hurt last year, but in the pre-injury clips I watched he didn't play with the authority and size you expect from a 7 foot center.

Not counting on him doing much, but you can't get hurt giving him a look.
