Not Torrey Craig as he just signed with Boston.

I don't think we should expect much. We can't do anything till March 1 under the cap rules. And even then we probably hit up TJ Warren first (you would think).

Otherwise expect a 10 day for Taj!

We are one of 7 teams that cannot sign a player who made more than 12.5mil when bought out.

Not sure if he lasts till March 1, but Josh Richardson is one of those guys out there that could help. Has been a Knick killer in the best, but is a decent overall shooter/slasher and a pesky defender. Lots of experience. At this point best known for getting dealt for Derrick White

Yup and we can't afford anyone under the 2nd apron rules till March 1 - the same constraint we have on TJ Warren. The vet min salary prorates to something lower after that date.

There was an article mentioning Lonnie Walker (overseas at the moment). Always thought he played hard and offered good moments in a bench role. Still has some upside and athleticism...

On the UK page 1 is a blog link to an idiotic suggests Christian Wood could work here. He has yet to play a game this season having knee surgery.
Lakers signed Alex Len and waived his ass.

Does anyone do any back ground on the guy?

He sucked even when he was in his prime.

I don't think that is fair. He's had some good years but it looks like he has struggled to stay on the court.

his reputation in the locker room was not good. Kid has a ton of talent and his defense was not reputable. That alone make him unThibable.

weird - you ask if anyone has any back ground on the guy, and then you knife him in the back.

Lack of health is my big concern with him. Briggs was such an advocate for the guy- that was, if I recall, during/after his year in Detroit - numbers were solid.

His next two years in Houston were ok/good. If I recall, Houston kinda sucked so there is that.

And then another solid year in Dallas.

No one being added to this last spot is going to make any difference.

Wood has a well earned and established reputation as a psycho

Fair. I think he is an upjumped version of Lee Nailon. Whether he sucks or not is subject to perspective. I recognize that some people will look at a guy who scores in the high teens and see a legit player. Other people will look at the fact that nearly every coach he's had looked at his defense at one point and determined that he is unplayable. I go with this take. He's got major flaws in his game and it's debatable if he's even a NBA player at this point

If anyone did the back ground check they'd see the guy is difficult. That was the question. Stat sheet is one thing.
not weird, numbers don't tell the full story. Write a blog without doing it is not good journalism. Then add his reputation for not playing good defense its ****ing stupid to suggest him as a knick.
