Prigioni was the PG on Scola's team in the Spanish league. He's also the PG for Argentina. http://recontravaleradio.com.ar/201...nte-que-tiene-houston-para-hacer-un-recambio/
Lin would do better on a team where he isn't pressured to defer to another star player and can be "The Man."
Lin needs to go to a team with an uptempo fast pace style like coach Lin would be perfect for a team like Orlando if SVG was still coaching there, and Dwight was intrested in staying
Would he be the oldest rookie ever? Anyhow, he was an old teammate of Scola's in Spain. Also a member of the Argentina national team.
I would take anything an Argentine agent tells the media with a grain of salt, to be honest. But if he does sign with the Knicks, I think he'd be the oldest rookie ever... by a few years!
It's not that Lin has to be the man so much, as he can go to a team with other unselfish and very willing players. Lin going to a team, like the Raptors, Nuggets (if they somehow lost Lawson), Trailblazers, or even the Hawks (since they are about to be rid of Joe Johnson).
If we lose out on Dragic, should we go after Lin? He'd bring a ton of publicity to this city along with Chandler Parsons.
I think Sabonis is the oldest rookie ever, at 31. Gaze was 28 when he played a little for the Bullets
Let some other team take on his risky contract. It's going to take a $8.4 mil /yr type contract to stop the Knicks from matching. If Lin signs with another team with cap space, it helps the Rockets to retain Dragic.
No, just watched Prigioni in Caja Laboral this year and he was solid. He was averaging just 1.1 TO per game. Had 3rd Assist-turnover ratio in euroleague. Lin had 136th best assist-turnover ratio.
