Knicks · Argentina (Knicks PG Prigioni) vs. Team USA: 7/22, Sunday 330pm EST on NBA TV (page 1)

Exhibition match, should be interesting. Let's see what the Knicks got as a backup.

Can't get any better in terms of a test.

Hope he holds up well on the court.

FirstRow is how I will be watching it.

I don't have links, but I read or heard that replays should be on ESPN2 or ESPN3 online. Something like that.

interested to watching Pablo working with Ginobili/Delfino.
Hoping Pablo can possibly be the player that can attract Delfino a reason to come to NY.
Delfino would be able to start at SG and do things that Novak cannot, with his ball handling, athleticism, defense, and toughness.

We only have the vet min to offer but not many teams can give Delfino a starting roster spot, be a big part of our philosophy on both ends, and a chance to play with a contender all at the same time.
Delfino is one of the toughest European players next to Ginobili at the G/F spots and all round games.
For Delfino to tick off Melo last year with his hounding defense 1v1, it says a lot about Delfino's defensive abilities.
He is versatile to play SG/SF and has a great all round game in addition to his 3point shooting.
His ability to shoot off the dribble, create his own shots, and create shots for others with his high IQ, TEAM PLAY, and defensive intensity are the keys in improving our lineup.

so far he looks a bit slow

Running With Gazelles

Prigioni can run an offense. His handle is solid.

The US did not miss.

Handle looks fine. Picks up dribble too early and does not seem to be able to penetrate at all, even with picks. We'll see.

How does Delfino look? Is he worth signing?

Delfino has not done anything but would be STEAL for the vet min. Not gonna happen

delfino is draining threes

So Argentina was getting blown out early. The sat Priggy and brought on a younger feisty PG and they are now within 8 with the ball.

Hopefully we will get another look but he will not come back in as long as Argentina is making a run with the backup

He is back in :-)

Lets see

Jus' sayin'

The nifty pass Prigioni just made inside would be a thunderous dunk by Amar'e

That was a nice pass

I would prefer Nate than Pablo but he should be seeking a bit more than the vet minimum.
He played great last year with all the injuries and the Monta Ellis trade in Golden State.
Mark Jackson was upset that Nate is not getting a chance to stay on the roster but understands Jack is an upgrade with his size and versatility.
They still have Jenkins and Curry, with Brandon Rush, so it is unlikely that Nate would return.

Nate has the speed/quickness needed to penetrate and break down defenses while Pablo could be similar to Kidd with their age and inability to penetrate.

Clippers has 2 younger PGs on their summer league roster that looked pretty good that are undersized as well.

I love Prig, he always makes the right pass. Can you imagine how many open looks Novak will get?

Scola can't throw it in the ocean

No Time For Shrimps

Pablo is already a done deal. Did you say Nate? Nate? Why?

The Knicks need a reasonable 6'7 facsimile of Trevor Ariza. We have three guards to handle the ball. Sheesh.

The announcer just said that Priggy has always been a great shooter 80 pct from 3

Uh ... I don't think so!

I hate when Melo is in with Kobe/Durant/LeBron he never gets the ball
