Seems like a good rebounder, shot blocker, athletic, also gets some ast. Can't hit free throws though. Does he have a mid range shot? In his draft scouting report it said he had a solid post game and a jumper out to 10 feet.

His numbers and analytics always look good which makes it odd how he has struggled to get playing time. I would take a risk with him if he came cheap and depending on who our C is.

I always liked him personally. I thought he did a little bit of everything.

he could develop into a triangle type center. his on court personality is very likable.
Nixluva is posting triangle screen grabs, even when nobody asks - Fishmike. LOL So are we going to reference that thread like the bible now? "The thread of Wroten Page 14 post 9" - EnySpree

You're right. His #s look excellent. It reminds me of brandan wright having excellent analytics but never getting playing time.

love him but he loves the lakers more
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

I watched him quite a bit last year. Very good player. He is like a shorter DeAndre Jordan

5 years in the league and still no breakout year. Have not watched him much at all, and some here are saying that his numbers seem OK...then why is he still on the bench, for the most part.

Not comfortable arguing against him, because no image of his game comes up when I think about him, but it seems that if he is as good as some are saying, he should have done something more by now.

If he is not a player you could see as an integral player in the teams future 5 years down the line, I would take a pass unless we get him for a minimal amount of $$.

EnySpree: Can we agree to agree not to mention Phil Jackson and triangle for the rest of our lives?

As you say, the price would have to be right...

What would YOU be looking at for a contract.


I would say both Wright and Davis were busts, more so Wright, who was picked 8th in his draft- one spot ahead of Noah, I might add. The fact that he's been on 5 teams tells you something, I would think.

Neither have lived up to expectations.

4-5 per year, 3 years with a player option for year 4
