BTW the article says "The Knicks roster now stands at 13 players"... I only count 12, typo or something we don't know?

I think you forget cuttino mobley. Although he retired his contract is still ours so he is the one you dont see on the rooster but count toward the rooster.

Mobley still counted on roster?

Is this the result of us being denied the DPE medical retirement, or unrelated?

Does Mobley fulfill the one inactive player requirement on the CBA, ie, we do not have to sign anyone else (beyond Samb)? Does this also mean that we only have two roster spots left?

Finally, when does Mobley come off the books? At the end of this season, or later?

I think it's a good adition, if he plays of course, because I thought/think that Wilcox can help us a lot, he puts good numbers when he plays, the problem is that D'Antoni only use him for 5, 6 minutes.

seems like a nice pick up, hopefully he'll show what he's got

yea and i don't think i saw him touch the ball once on the offensive end, literally. we so not use to have someone like him we don't even give him a chance, we need to get it to him more down under

He's never gonna play. It's just for another body in practice...

How Tall Is Samb? Just out of Curiosity..

 

[smokes]

7'1

Never seen him play personally and his stats sheet says crap. Anyone know if he's decent?

Stats

During his stints in the NBA, Samb averaged a block every six minutes on the floor.

In the NDBL, we was getting about 4 blocks per game.

Otherwise, a raw talent.

I'd give him a chance. We have nothing to lose on this guy. Who knows? He might be a good role player. He's probably better than JFries anyway.
