I agree. I didn't think he looked that good in Vegas.
He is playing with actual NBA players that have had more time in the offense. I am not surprise at all. If his shot is on he is an above average player.
Wasn't so great last season. Looks much more polished, confident.
How soon we forget that Gallo was one of the better rookies and showed a lot last year. All Rookie 2nd Team after coming from the D League.
Didnt finish the season that way, thats why Im surprised he looks so sharp so soon.
Gallo had a VERY good rookie year after coming from the D League. Not sure what criteria guys are using to judge a rookie that played well compared with other rookies.
He needs to play better than last yr
That goes without saying, but if Gallo had played any better he would've been All Rookie 1st Team, so you need to have some F'n perspective about how he played.All-Rookie 2nd Team 2015
PLAYER POS TEAM FG% PPG RPG APG BLKPG
Bojan Bogdanovic F Brooklyn Nets .453 9.0 2.7 0.9 0.1
Langston Galloway G New York Knicks .399 11.8 4.2 3.3 0.3
Marcus Smart G Boston Celtics .367 7.8 3.3 3.1 0.3
Zach LaVine G Minnesota Timberwolves .422 10.1 2.8 3.6 0.1
Jusuf Nurkic C Denver Nuggets .446 6.9 6.2 0.8 1.1
Gallo played badly offensively last season I don't care how many PPG he got.
Whatever man! Kid played hard and of course he needed to improve his game but it's not fair to say he had a bad rookie season. As rookies go he had a good season. Wasn't drafted and still made a name for himself.
Don't care what he was - rookie or not. He had awful offensive numbers but played really nice D and it looks like he has improved his game coming into this season.
Lets call it how it is. His WS48, TS, FG ... whatever ... was all bad. Those numbers did not tell the full story though since his defense is what earned him the spot.
If in your opinion MOST rookies suck then making the All Rookie 2nd team is an indication that Gallo had a good ROOKIE season! By all rights Gallo had no business even being mentioned but he played well enough to be recognized. Having a flaw in your game as a rookie is expected so I don't know why you're making a big deal about it. He looks like he's developed over last year so it's great for the Knicks.
don't care about rookie teams or all star teams. He was a bad (offensive) player on a bad team. Just a fact.
it does look like it was good experience for him watching how he has played tonight.
You are absolutely correct, he was a bad scorer. However, there is a long line of rookies who were terrible offensively their rookie year. He was in a bad position forced to do too much but it did give him valuable NBA minutes. I am not ready to anoint him the next but I just hope he settles in a great role player similar to but not exactly like a Danny Green. Imagine Green without Duncan or playing heavy minutes in Cleveland without Lebron his rookie year.
His arms did look bigger, as they pointed out.
I thought he burned himself out at some point last year. Still feel that he is better as an off guard, or at least in a situation where he does not have to do as much.
He looked good, tonight, and this Brazilian team was quite pesky.
Amazing how much criticism is heaped on an undrafted kid who last year had to do something on the pro level he never did in college...lead an offense.
He is going to get some good minutes in this rotation, and I think he'll emerge as a dependable combo guard.
