I'm not a Prigs fan..I thought he was just too hesitant...Dude is passing up layups..Prigs did hit some big shots...Celts were giving it to him..He needs to be more aggressive...

his pesky D makes up for a lot of offensive flaws. I thought he could figure out how to attack the rim by now but it just has not happened. However, he is an upgrade over kidd because of his shooting

What does being a third string pg has to do with anything? Does that mean to you that he can't play?
Lin was the 12th man and once he got the time........ yea i know he's the 12th man.
His resume warrants his playing time in crunch time.
In 2001, Prigioni joined the Spanish club Lucentum Alicante, and he played there until 2003. In 2003, Prigioni joined the Euroleague team Saski Baskonia. With Baskonia he won several titles, including: 3 Spanish King's Cups in the years 2004, 2006, 2009, 4 Spanish Supercups in the years 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and the Spanish Championship in 2008.
If the knicks are gonna advance Pablo CAN'T BE ON THE BENCH AT CRUNCH TIME, WOODSON DOESN'T KNOW WHO HE HAS.
Pablo played 23:25 was +11
Ah I was curious about his +- stat for this game, I thought it would be good.
I agree that he needs to be on the floor. But Woodson already has to juggle Felton, Shump, and JR between two guard spots. If Felton isn't successfully attacking the basket & creating, then Prigs should get his minutes.

He is certainly hitting the open looks that Fields missed for year when the defense collapses on our guys in the lane...

Prigs looked lost when he first got here but no one worked as hard on their game as him. Once he started working with Hopla on a quicker release he has been virtually automatic from 3. Our best 3pt shooter
Of course Prigioni looked lost. How many times have any of us left the comfort of our surroundings to go work in another country with a bunch of strangers that you needed to lead?
Yea thats might point. It took him a while to adjust to the nba but he put in the work as opposed to a guy like teletovic on the Nyets who was all hype no sunstance

Unfortunately Kidd is the new Fields.
Kidd is no Fields
Fortunately there is more to basketball than just shooting it
Kidd is an assistant coach
There is no reason for Prigioni to be on the bench with all his poise and experience when we can't bring the ball up court without making bone head decisions and force Melo to do it..
For all those who keep doubting Prigioni , his resume is the most heralded on our roster.
All he knows to do is win win win, Larry Brown is just smiling watching Prigs show the knicks how the game is played.
He should never be on the freakin bench at crunchtime, he keeps us grounded to play the right way.
And don't forget he plays better on the road.
Prigioni is too good not to get at least 20 minutes a game.
Prigs is like a coach on the floor, his handling of the game tempo is equivalent to calling timeout while the game is going on.
Problem with Prigioni at times he is too tentative with his shot. Sometimes he is aiming his 3 pointer. He has a pretty decent shot and he has some cleverness in the lane- he should pick his spots more to keep defenses honest. His shots totally spurred on the run today though. It was awesome.

because the game different than Euro Ball, The players have greater physicality in the NBA, they are faster, more athletic and the pace of the game is just faster in the NBA. Dude has definitely proven that he belongs and I could see more than one team trying to pry him away from us. Crafty Veterans who can produce are always valued.
EuroPoints are a different breed than ours.
He has progressed nice thru the season and is still learning gaining confidence.
One thing that is universal: if you hit your shots, you make space for others.
Priggs is a spaceman!
