Welcome back Metro you'll have to keep us posted on your boxing I'd love to see a youtube video (no homo) or eventually on msg. Where do you get most of your ko's, on here or in the ring? :lol:
He can't shoot a lick...good thing we don't need scoring.
I would have preferred Singleton or Faried, but Shumpert could be our Bruce Bowen-like stopper. We'll see how he pans out, but I think this move was done in part to allow us to move Toney Douglas if need be, which is a shame b/c I do like Douglas.
In any case, basically I see this guy as carrying the duties of stopping the other team's number 1 guy one-on-one. His physical tools are off the charts, but a lot of playing defense against guys like LeBron, Kobe, Wade, Rose is not being afraid of playing defense against LeBron, Kobe, Wade and Rose. Mentally, we will only know in time how he will adjust.
I'd like to see him develop a J, but I'm not killing the Knicks for taking a guy who can't score...we have two guys who can fill it up no problem.
Well he did almost average 18 ppg in the ACC his Junior Year. He has scoring potential.
Yeah but he's shooting barely 40% from the field. He can, if he gets his shots, of course fill it up...
He also needs to control his turnovers...and he will have to adjust to moving the ball as opposed to dominating it.
Again, I think Faried filled a more immediate need, but he could pan out.
Welcome back, btw.
lol idk this guy is no D wade or evans, he is a very streaky shooter and very unconsistant. He could be compared to tony allen at best.
Physically I'd compare him to a young D wade.
Can you read guy?
Carmelo is filthy,
Are you ducktales?
u compare him to a young D wade? I know ur not comparing him to a young D-wade offensively, and I'd take tony allen's defense than d-wades.
