His shooting percentage on the Suns.... 0.235
His career? 0.372
Lets wake up...
My man Smac said it best;
Many teams need hustle and rebounding
He played well for us in 7 total games
7
Hes about to be 30 years old and his NBA career is highlighted by a 7 game stretch with us during a period when we were not even competing for anything other than a lower draft pick to give to Utah
Can we stop overrating this bum like hes going to help much?
This guy has been in and out of the NBA for years now, cant stick with nobody. Its time we look elsewhere and give somebody else a shot. I much rather have Mozgov out there developing than this dude.
I have to disagree with u
In the 7 games with the Knicks, it was not about Barron's scoring or
rebounding it was about his movement/ position/ and high IQ as a tandem-
bigman in the frontcourt on both sides of the court. Earl Barron presence on
court in all 7 games took a large load of pressure off of his 4 teammates, to
change the entire outlook of the Knick team by allowing David Lee to strong-
arm at the PF, plus allowing Gallo to put all his attention to blossom at the SF.
Recall.... Chandler & Harrington were out with injuries.
The 30 year old Earl Barron has alot of experience at performing at the
center position in the NBA, which is more than anyone can mention about
Mozgov, Randolph, Turiaf, and Dantoni's bigman teaching.
u dont have to teach Earl Barron how to position himself on offense/defense
as a NBA "center", his movements on court will become a big asset
when tandem with Amare, plus help bigtime in the develope
ment of
Mozgov & Randolph.
Earl Barron is the center u would put in a lineup with any of the top-10 PF
in the NBA to do all the dirty work for 18 to 24 mpg.

He couldn't even beat out Channing Frye....
Agreed. How much is he making though?If there is any big man that I want the Knicks to acquire before the trade deadline it has to be Anderson Varejao.I'm not sure what the Knicks would have to give up in order to acquire him but you add him to a front court that has Turiaf, Mosgov and Stoudemire and the Knicks could be able to beat teams like the Celtics and Magic.I'd rather the Knicks trade for him than for Iguodala.

He's making about 45 million for the next 5 years.He's signed until 2014 and has a team option after that.
Hmmmm Well I like how he plays of what I've seen of him. I hope he'd find the chemistry within this team (which Felton might be the key in).
Well we DO need a center. I'm not worried about Anthony. I just hope we'd have enough money to get enough pieces. Anthony would be great, but filling up the other needed positions with significant results could be better.I'm not sure if trading for Varejao will affect the Knicks' chances of signing Anthony if he is a free agent this summer.The Knicks would probably have to dump salary in order to have a team that consists of Stoudemire,Anthony, Felton and Varejao.I wouldn't mind the Knicks signing Kendrick Perkins after this season if it will increase their chances of signing Anthony.
