The New York Knicks have signed forward Christopher Copeland, agent John Spencer told HoopsHype. The former Colorado player averaged 21.8 ppg and 5.5 in the Belgian League for Generali Okapi Aalstar last season. Sulia

He will play on our summer league team starting this friday so we have something to look forward to.

Looks like another scoring option off the bench. Has a weird release though.

Since you asked nicely

His offensive game reminds
Me so much of melo...i like his game, he can def fill it up...with the additions of camby and copeland and white its looking more and more like jeffries minutes will go way down now that we have big men that can bring offense and defense to spell amare melo and chandler but i still want jj back for the vet min

Keep in mind that the Belgian league has pretty weak competition (I can know, I've lived here my whole life and play ball here) so I wouldn't be expecting too much of this guy tbh...:2cents:

He has a very weak first step. Could not beat anyone of those guys to the basket. His shot looks good kind of reminds me more of a taller Mike Redd in terms of release. I do want to see what he can do against D League not a bad pick up.

Funny...That's the first thing i was thinking, i didn't see him get by anyone, but he has a nice shot.This gives me a reason to watch some Knicks summer league games, if he can work on that first step, he might be ok.
