Barea knows how to play the game. The guy could teach Frank a ton.

I agree that Dallas has makes a decent trade partner just as long as we DO NOT give out assets and overpay for one, there are many available players that I think we can find
LOVED BAREA when he was younger, 1 season before he won with Dallas and for a few years after when he was signed by Twovles and returned to Dallas, not sure about now but he has put up some good numbers not too long ago, either last year or the season before Derrick Rose took a gamble and wanted no RETURN to The Knicks, however, Phil Jackson might have given him a very good 2year deal if he was still running things *for Rose* HARD to analyze since we had "interest" in every FA out there according to the "rumors"
Lin Isiah Whitehead * I think both Sean Kilpatrick/Dwinwidie would have FULL BIRD RIGHTS according to SPOTRAC if they released them and we picked em up or traded to for them, at least have early bird rights too*
http://www.spotrac.com/nba/brooklyn-nets/sean-kilpatrick-15922/ Spencer Dwinwidie while more of a shooter he has great size as well as DEFENSIVE abilities with his size/length
Archie Goodwin *played for Coach Horn on the Sun's* and was once a prospect as a combo guard that hasn't developed a NBA LEGIT RANGE
Caris LeVert in Addition to DeMaRRe CaRRoLL who has 2moe years left on his contract With LeVert, RHJ, Joe Harris *contract year*, and Carroll SF/PF,
Isiah Cannon Sessions *like JJ BAREA* who IMO was under rated throughout their careers Deron Williams think he will join a playoff contender unless NYK throws him a contract much more than the VET MIN It is OBVIOUS that we would much rather have Rose on a similar contract than Deron Williams however, neither would likely sign to rebuild in NYK with such a low contract $$$ Then there are the summer leaguers Dwight Byucks other players that i do not know the names to this second Ding CBA player that played well for Dallas as a G/F, kind of like a BAKER at the G/F position that is Chinese Previous Drafts/UNDRAFTED can we find the NEXT Tyler Johnson or continued development/rehabilitate talents like Livingston, or the under rated careers of a YOUNG SESSIONS *who improved every year and had a career and journey through out the entire NBA and through out his entire career and was VERY UNDER RATED Mike James *the YOUNG ONE that I think The Sun's signed to a training camp deal or possible unguaranteed deal* Quinn Cook *ex Dukie that played 4years that we once had interest in during the Phil Saga*
Markel Brown Anthony Brown
Semaj Christian
Shabazz Muhumadd which TWOLVES pulled their QO to make him a UFA that we can possibly sign to a cap friendly deal or even a VET MIN deal after we move CA, however I WOULD PREFER NO PLAYER OPTIONS

Besides, it's not so much having someone teach Frank but having someone competent to handles the pg duties until Frank is ready. A pg mentor would be great, but I'm more concerned about not putting pressure on Frank to have to run the team from day one. |

Pablo, Jose, Jerian Grant, Galloway, DRose... haven't we had enough with stopgap starters at PG?
Can't we get a real starter? Or is that a stupid question, given what's below? Ramon Sessions PG 31 UFA CHA TBD - - - - |

my question for The Knicks is if they want someone that
1- have similar skillsets as a PG/SG that have improved to mentor him on how to improve
Rather getting strong naturally like Dirk/Pau/KG/Durant or with less weight more reps is the better option BASKETBALL IS NOT ABOUT STRENGTH, especially in todays game Finding the right trainer that understands this is VERY IMPORTANT

having multiple versatile players that can PENETRATE/FACILITATE/PUSH TEMPO/CREATE for the team/CREATE THEIR OWN SHOT/WILLING TO CREATE the best HIGH % SHOT, in different positions
While Atlanta achieved that when they were the #1 seed Some younger teams like Portland/Denver are trying to build a team able to execute with.... That is the direction the NBA is heading to and why Houston wanted CP3 in addition to Harden who are both ball dominant something Philly, Sun's are trying to be, Dallas, and even Brooklyn are trying to do... Now if they can also play DEFENSE, it is even better
Now that is what GS has with MULTIPLE VERSATILE TALENTS ON BOTH OFFENSE AND DEFENSE that can play on and off the ball, with INCREDIBLE SHOOTING ABILITY |

From what little I've seen of this kid, he doesn't strike me as the type of physical freak athlete that could survive the pounding of an NBA season. Or even just a portion of an NBA season. Throwing him into the fire at 17-18 years old would be just that, IMO. We need at least a mid-quality point, not a yoot project that looks like he's been playing against NBDL scrubs for a year or two... |

Who do you want to mentor a euro kid with a 8 foot wingspan?
A midget? No, you want someone who has experience with similar type game. An Alcoholic? Maybe a bonafide recovered one, but not one in questions. How is Lawson doing? Barea? can a 30 year old guy from Puerto Rico mentor a 19 year old black french kid? Not saying anything relating Barea being racist, but there are cultural divides and communication matters! Any choices for a guy that might want to be a coach? Has a history of being a good teammate. Jose had a good reputation. Kidd was great on the bench. The last person I'd want to mentor anyone is Nate. He is an incredible athlete, but not much between the ears. I think Sessions is a long guard with a good reputation I think. |
