But also not like he was killing it out there.

It seems again we don't have a room for a 24yr center in 17-man squad of our youth movement?

His NBA level skill is just good at setting screens and making hustle plays. He is not a threat anywhere else or a great defensive presence.

With the amount of bigs the Knicks have already and the rumors floating that they will possibly trade Melo for another one, I don't see the reason to keep Marshall.

Kornet has more NBA potential because of his 3 point shot and rim protection. He's below par on NBA level athleticism, but unlike Marshall he has two NBA skills in demand for a stretch 5. A 3 point shot and ability to block shots at the rim. Don't be surprised if Dotson and Kornet make it in the league. I liked both of them from day 1.

The latest entry in the knicks lunchpail hustle guys that don't make it.

On to Bulgaria!

Don't say your goodbyes yet.

His $1.3m just clears cap room for THJr. offer sheet. Can still be resigned to min deal. Don't be surprised if he's still at camp.

Too much info.

Every team should have a Plumlee.

For those who want a "Defensive Culture" or throw back player, the reincarnation of Chris Dudley is your guy!!!
For those who saw this kid live on Dleague, he was great.
We have bigs, we have more bigs coming in, and he is not a care building block. I wish him well and hope he succeeds!!!
Very intense guy.

If they like him they can eventually re-sign him for the min. I imagine there are other Cs that are younger who could fill his role but we will see.
GustavBahler @ 7/7/2017 11:06 AM
Plumlee gave it his all, but most of the time he looked on the court like a chicken with its head cut off. Hope he catches on somewhere.

Boy we sure love those bench players here. The further on the bench they are the more they are loved.

Plumlee held the great Bam Adebayo to 1 for 10 shooting yesterday and drove him insane. I like our Plumlee and want him back. There are other aspects to the game besides highlight dunks and blocking the ball into the rafters.
