Knicks · Sweet Lou Amundson Appreciation Thread (page 1)

I don't care how good this guy is or how bad he is.

The dude has a huge heart and I want him on my team next year!

Love this dude!

Max him

He'll bring good veteran leadership.

He will be our Nick Collison with more heart

I can't stop looking at that ponytail thing.
It's like a squirrels tail.

His leadership will be very much needed,
creds to Phil.

2 year 3 million max. The dude is staying here and he wont get more than that.

stays or goes. I could really care less.

Unbelievable how in such a suck year, people get caught up on
Some journeyman who is pretty insignificant to the future of this team.
Want to stick him at 10th, 12th man fine.
It's disappointing that this team sucks so bad that it's come to this.

Seems just about right to me.

Lou brings it. The guy has an incredible work ethic and just hustles. Knicks need to bring Lou back.

I would bring him back because he is a perfect example of a role player: Plays hard, runs the system in his sleep and can do all the basics. He is a 12-15 man.

I think we've found our Herb Williams replacement.

And after he retires, we bring him back as an assistant coach.

Seriously, maybe it was Eny talking about bringing him back and people were critical.

I think you bring him back. He is grit and determination incarnate. Melo may have all the skill in the world, but unless you have the will to win, you lose.

+1

I don't want to sidetrack this topic to Melo, but he does have to will to win; he just does not have the brains to win.

Think about how good Melo and Kenyon were together. I think Lou and Melo coud have it.

Every team is made better when you have depth and players like Lou on your roster. He's not going to be our starting PF in the future, but he's proving that he is productive and will give 110%. That's all you can ask. Dude is doing more than your typical journeyman cuz he's taken full advantage of his opportunity. He's gotten better offensively thru hard work so I don't see how anyone could have a problem with him and not give him props. He deserves every bit of praise. You think it was easy going up against the Spurs bigs and ripping 17 boards, 12 pts, 2 asts, 2 blks

Amundson is like what 6-8 6-9? yet grabbing 17 like he is 7-2
