"[Only registered and activated users can see links. ], [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] and [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] would be among the candidates to be waived to make room for West, should the Knicks choose to sign him."

How the hell would Prigioni and Kurt Thomas be one of the ones waived?

Anyway, as far as Delonte West goes, I like his game. He's versatile and is good on both sides of the floor.

They waive Prigs, we riot.

[Scipio]

There`s no way that the rumour that Prigioni gets waived can be true. They want to waive the back up point guard who defends, hustles, steals and passes really well???

Surely not even Dolans Knicks can be that stupid . . . . . . . . . . . . Can they?

If they do, then we can mark it down as one of the worst all time waivers. Prigioni has been a huge part of the bench and has been denied by Woodson to play a bigger role.

[Scipio]

If they do then I might find it very hard to watch this club for the rest of the season. It would be absolutely pathetic and I`m not sure that I have the patience to keep wasting my time supporting a sports team that constantly makes bad decisions that harms their chances of winning.

[Wargames]

In my mind its white. Just look at his PER and the PER of the people he defends against. Anyhow the Knicks should go for delonte if he has anything left even if he is rusty. They seriously lack 2 way players overall and come playoff time he could play backup pg allowing woodson to rest prigoni and Kidd.

Even more than that of they decide to keep him with say a 1 year contract that means they can focus exclusively on drafting a 3/4 instead of having to pick between that or another PG for insurance.

If they have to waive all three of those guys they're overpaying West. I doubt any team is going to give him anymore than the vet's min to sign.

[smokes]

Can he even play in the playoffs when he's signed this late? Not sure on the rules.

[bigapple]

best way is to waive Dolan.

Mar 1 was the deadline so he wouldn't be eligible for the playoffs. but they could sign him for the rst of the regular season.

[Rob Low]

The hell? He really can't play in the playoffs? Then this is pointless, might as well keep someone that can play in the playoffs

Mar 1 was the deadline so he wouldn't be eligible for the playoffs. but they could sign him for the rst of the regular season.

he would be eligible since he was cut/waived or whatever the hell reason he's not a team now before March 1

for example, if we waive KT to sign him and he signs with the Spurs he wont be able to play in the playoffs because he was waived after March 1

You're right, player's waived after Mar. 1 are not eligible for the playoffs. I thought the rule was players signed after Mar 1 are not eligible for the playoffs.

All these injuries are making this signing closer and closer to realization.

What will Mr. West bring to the table for our Knicks' improvement?

Can he defend? can he penetrate the basket effectively?
