MSG3 @ 8/8/2013 10:13 AM
Per Al Ianazzone and Marc Stein. 1 yr Vet Minimum Deal.

Grunwald has been really good. Signing JR to a front loaded 3 yr deal, MWP and Udrih for a combined 3M/yr, bringing back Prigs, Jeremy Tyler and the Bargnani trade were all good. Especially with so little cap flexibility.

WOW this the 3rd pt guard we were hoping for. Pretty good off season.
EnySpree @ 8/8/2013 10:18 AM
Nice.... just as long as they don't have Shump playing 3

always been a fan of Beno. We got better

RonRon @ 8/8/2013 10:20 AM
I guess the pressure Bobby Brown put on Udrih worked
I am glad we are able to sign Udrih to a deal, think he is our best facilitator with the ability to score/penetrate/ and hit a wide open 3pter

Think he can challenge Raymond Felton as the starting PG and is better than Pablo

another bad signing by NY. He sucks they could have gotten way better pgs earlier. Besides how good could he be if no one else wanted him.
NYKBocker @ 8/8/2013 10:23 AM
Very good signing. Beno should start from day one. They should get rid of Felton.

Go take a look at his splits with ORL and his time in SA. To say he sucks is just flat out incorrect.

i agree 100% ronron... i actually think he could push ray

He stinks and will get exposed in the eastern conference finals. Game over

Felton is one of our best penetration with the ability to finish especially with JR possibly missing time, can hit wide open 3pter's, score, and throwing alley hoops to Chandler/Kmart
His weakness is defending a position and isn't a good facilitator vs very good defensive teams that are contenders

If you don't like the signing please take some time to explain in detail. Saying over and over that he stinks adds nothing.

Look at that Marc Berman does have some good sources. No one else was reporting about Beno yesterday to. I think the Knicks used the workout to scare him into signing with us early. I was wondering why the hell we were working out Sean May and the other bums(not including Brown). I am ready for war next year!! Lets take on those nets and whoever else got a problem with the Knicks!

that would make sense, but he and felton are very close, can't say he is better, but he has a one year deal and you can get rid of feltons deal..

can't say he is better than felton.. but I look at mo williams signing for a little over 2 mil a year and I am like.. ouch.. mo would be the best PG on our team.... then you could feel good about moving felton...

Bodies to run the pick and roll with the PGs?

I think beno will be better than prigs... which is why I didn't like giving prigs a dime more..

No one could have thought we would have gotten Beno for the Min. I do think maybe Nate would have been better other signing if we knew we would get Beno later. I don't care about that anymore I am just happy we got a guy I have been wanting for a few years now.

I like the signing and think Woody will once again play w/ 2 PGs at times; Felton and Beno will probably be playing the 2 while JR is out. Agreed on him possibly starting at some point if Felton struggles.

Especially glad to finally have a PG that will actually penetrate w/ the ball.

Clean @ 8/8/2013 10:45 AM
Am I the only one who remembers him always killing the Knicks. Him and Mike Dunlevy no matter what always turns it up when they play us. During that game where Mike was hitting crazy shots I remember Beno was killing us also in the short time he played also.

well maybe not beno, but look at the list I posted days ago, there were other options better than prigs IMO.... Dj augustine being one of them..
