You do realize that we are short on bigs right now and there arn't that many decent bigs in the d league that would be good here. Besides, Amundson is a good role player, he plays good Defense and helps move the ball around on offense. A number of the fouls that he got last night should not have been fouls, (reffing was below par last night).

Lou Amundson sucks: he's 32-years old; he's played for 10 different teams in 9 years, and only once has he played more than one season for a team; he's never played more than 15 minutes/game until he got here.
So you don't like him because of his past over what he brings to Knicks? Good to know.
He doesn't bring anything to the team, he's fucking terrible. The only reason you think he does is because the team is even worse. He has no hope of contributing to even a mediocre team.

He sets picks, rebounds, passesplays d and gets put backs. He hustles when he has been on the floor for the Knicks. I missed the London game but have watched all of the others and he has played well.
We need to keep these dudes, because they play with heart and they stay within the confinement of the system. They don't take dumb shots like many of the past or some who are still on the roster; furthermore,they are two-way players. A team always need such players to be successful. We now need a true backup center and a pure shooter. Once we get those two pieces, it will make it easier to identify FAs to fit our starting 5

and for every F5 there is a 3G, a trublue, a TFK and a splat. Not sure your point.
Knowing they are out there isnt important. Finding good fits for your roster is.

Not if there are younger options or guys with higher upsides
Or if you have guys on the team who provide the same result
No thanks to the 33yr old Amundson, because as we know every Fish-Flops

Dude! What's with your disdain for Admunson? The dude plays hard every time he is on the court. Whether we are up by 20 or down by 50, he still brings the energy. He may not be an offensive juggernaut, but I would take Admunson over both Shumpert and JR.
