i think this is a good move. we need three PGs on the team. now add Jeffries and another SG and i think the roster will be in good shape.

interesting that the knicks once again go to Europe for talent. (james white, draft pick, etc)

I guess Bibby is cooked?

Kidd and Pablo are pass first big time. Interesting back ups.

Pablo needs to only understand "pass the ball to Melo!"

RT @jondelapresa: Luis Scola says that Pablo Prigioni will play in the NBA. (via @xydias)

And if you were Melo, how would you say: "Stand on the 3point line and get out of my way".

Sport Newspaper Ole journalist just spoke to agents and says Prigioni has #Knicks offer and plans to accept it.

Sounds like it will be official soon.

Know nothing about this guy, but having another playmaker on the bench is a good thing, to my mind.

I feel like D'Antoni is involved...where's he hiding at?

Grunwald has scouts in Europe that he trusts a lot. Kevin Wilson, I think is one http://www.nba.com/knicks/news/profile_w...

Melo is actually of hispanic (Puerto Rican heritage if Im not mistaken) but highly doubt he speaks an ounce of Spanish. He'd probably leave that to the coach and simply wave him off on the court.

Nice if true! Just get me a new SG, a backup PF (Jeffries?) and Im set.

Prigioni looks pretty fundamentally sound. Not sure how it'll translate, but he looks like a good passer.

Disappointed...I was expecting a mustache or a can of Pringles somewhere in the picture...

Gymkata @ 7/11/2012 11:01 AM
Even better, with a name like "Prigioni" we can bring back Pringles!
gunsnewing @ 7/11/2012 11:03 AM
lol Grunwald sure knows how to please the fans at uk
VDesai @ 7/11/2012 11:05 AM
I heard it was gonna be him or Mike James- would rather have this guy. He looks like a real smart player...

I am at the point where my dream scenario is get Dahntay by trading Gadz/Bibby/Baron in a sign and trade, sign Jefferies and sign Shawne.

Chandler
Stoudemire
Anthony
Jones
Lin

Smith, Kidd, Camby, Novak, SWilliams, Jefferies, Pablo, White, Shump(when he comes back he is one of the first off the bench.).

Martin I can't connect with that Pablo clip. Replace the violin with some AND1 mixtape beats and Pablo's value & respect skyrockets
