http://espn.go.com/blog/truehoop/post/_/id/12132/watch-jared-jeffries I don't know much about Jared beyond his stats but I recall reading this little article a while ago and thought you guys might be interested. jopatmc also started a thread on jeffries so merge this with his if necessary. I just wanted to get the info out there that he led the Knicks in +/- apparently and seems almost Battier-esque in his defensive contributions. Maybe he could actually help us out seeing as he is listed at 6'11"? What do you guys think?
i just realized this could be taken as a slightly homoerotic title...so i'll save Carl Herrera the trouble and say I have not look at jeffries' ass.
Yes I think people will be pleasantly surprised with this guy. He is batteresque with a little more size. He can play the 4 and he is an expiring next year. So the risk is minimal.
LOL! Jeffries does not have what it takes to become a true PF! This is a day of sorrow on Carl Landry's behalf and he will be miss! But then again we got K-Mart, we have something to celebrate! :grin:
Remember him? The 6"6 starting center who plays very good defense. Which I believe is a leading candidate for Rox Captaincy. So another defensive stalwart? No thanks.
Jeffries is garbage. Rockets fan here, living in NYC. I regularly attend Knicks games and witness first-hand Jared Jeffries' suckage. He's a half-way decent defender, thats about it. He should have stayed at Indiana all 4 years.
i dont care, we got what we want, sometimes you have to get some bad contracts, but his contract expires so its all good. I also notice he can play 1 to 4 spot so it might be good for making match up problems but the main thing is we got 2 draft picks and jordan hill and martin baby!
