I hope he does well but I am not expecting much.
I like Galloway. He needs to develop just like the others. I think he probably benefitted from his D League stint. These young Players need as much time in the Triangle as possible to get fully comfortable. He's long and can shoot it. He looks like a pretty dead on Phil Jackson PG.

I think they will keep Thanasis in westchester. He is knick property but only makes 25 grand. If they bring him up they lose his rights if they cut him.
What is he; a PG or a SG? He is shORT as hell for a SG. Can he defend and make the open jumpers? If the answers are no, we don't need him.

I been watching him in Westchester. He stands out to me as being a nba caliber player. How fat that goes is up to him. I wish him luck but he had a legit chance ofoproviding he belongs in the nba

Just because a guy appears to belong does not mean anything to me; if he can make it, I will be happy for him. For the Knicks, we need two-way players

He is a two way guy. He plays hard and has good drive and focus. I'm trying not to compare him to anyone but I think he is going to stick
Give him a chance. He can't do worse then Calderon ::))))

Seems to have made an impression on the defensive end while in the DL. Has those Groot type arms- DL leader in steals. . I think that this, as much as his jumper, got him called up from the farm.
Supposed to be intelligent and hard working.
His shooting success will reflect the success, or lack of success, the team has in moving the ball around to the open man- he is not an uber-athletic type of player- I think he is more of a system player at this point.
Has a great name.
If he shows early success, I think Hardaway will be looking over his shoulder at him.

Galloway is a Guard that just happens to be short only by head measurement. His wingspan is like that of a taller player.

Emmanuel Mudiay - 2014 6' 5" 200 6' 8.5"
Iman Shumpert - 2009 6' 5.5" 211 6' 9"

Hardaway is 6'7", 5 to 6 inches taller than that kid. If Hardaway can show improvements on Defense, I guaranty you he will be a star in the NBA. He needs to attend a defensive camp to be drilled on how to effectively be a defender. HE NEEDS TO LEARN TO defend HIS MAN.

I think Phil has a type. Thanasis 6'6 with a 7'0 wingspan
Acy 6'6.5 with a 7'2.75 wingspan
Cole 6'9 with a 7'4.75 wingspan

I expect that Pippen, Ron Harper, and Rodman also had long wingspans.
Creates a spiderweb on the defensive end.
Those Riley Showtime Laker teams also had some good length/wingspans, if I remember correctly.
Then you look at McHale, DJ, and the Chief on the celtics- same thing.
Of course wingspan might be important, but those guys on those Bulls, Celtics, and Lakers teams also had respective talents that went well beyond their long arms.
