Should Steve Novak clear waivers after Spurs release, New York will likely sign him to a guaranteed deal for season, sources tell Y

'Is Steve Novak signed? He's another decent stretch-4 to consider.'

I posted this only hours ago in the thread titled (who should the knicks sign next.)

Is this my chance to claim i have sources or something?

So what happened to Posey? Did he sign already?

he sucks.

Well yeah, but I thought the Knicks had already shown interest in him.

Good fit for dantoni, dude shoots the lights out. Wish he could rebound a little. Our second unit is not the strongest on the boards

it gets stronger if you put landry there. also, jorts is a good rebounder.

Steve Novak can shoot the hell out of the 3. This could be a sneaky good pickup.

Exactly, I think Landry is best for the second unit.

Boston Globe is reporting that the Celtics don't want Posey.
That tells me that he's done.

I watched the you tube videos on Steve Novak
and came away impressed with his shot from downtown.
Agree that he's not a rebounder, but he can play the 3 and 4 positions
which is what we need at this point. He plays a Euro-type game.
He'd be a great replacement for ExtraE.

Yep.

nyk4ever @ 12/19/2011 10:45 PM

this is an excellent pickup if grunwald can swing it. novak is the prototypical d'antoni 4 and now that we got guys like chandler/amear/jordan we can have a guy like this come off the bench and perform a specific role.

MSG3 @ 12/19/2011 10:45 PM

He just tweeted that he's a Knick. So I guess he's our replacement for Shawne.

gunsnewing @ 12/19/2011 11:06 PM

is he worth the full 2yr $5mil? or did we sign him for the $1.4 vet min?

gunsnewing @ 12/19/2011 11:10 PM

Anyone who takes away minutes from Jared Jeffries is ok in my book

Confirmation:

Apparently, this is NOT for the 2.5 million room exception....according to reports....

he'll do the same things as shawn offensively, but a little bit better. he is nowhere near the defender that shawne is though...

Knicksfan @ 12/19/2011 11:19 PM

So he wasn't amnestied, just released, right? Because it would be a 48 hr wait for him to clear waivers. He says on his twitter that he is headed to NY. If so, this is a great pickup for our bench. Fits D'antoni's system and brings 3pt shooting we really needed.

If / when this is confirmed, we would have transformed our bench from weakness to strength. Grunwald should win excecutive of the year.
