    Nurse, get me my nut-cutters!

    He started playing professionally in 1995. So he was around 17 years old.

    that's the only rational i will accept for us being left behind today...dwight not being back in time for the playoffs.

    still...losing out on Brandan Knight stings big-time!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I actually kind of like Pablo's game, but 2 2nd round picks is awfully expensive for a barely average 37 year old point guard on a 1.5m contract. Is his agent someone important or something?

    It isn't the same, but the dude has been playing for OVER 20 years. That's pretty hard core no matter what league. Now he's playing nba comp, having played for the last 20 years. Just saying.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm a Prigioni fan, and look forward to banging down 3's in 2k with him. But I also wouldn't be surprised at all if he barely contributes this year and retires this off season. Still think the trade was awful.

    He doesn't need to pass on the Rockets.

    Too much for too little. The Knicks got the best of the deal by far. Meaningless move.

    I just really like the Idea of Terry going back to his natural position. Pablo isnt a big name, but just the fact that he can handle the ball, pass (when he needs to), make good decisions, shoot 3s, makes me think this will be a good move.

    Isn't Pablo sneaky good on defense too?

    2 2nd round picks doesn't sit well with me...

    this seems like a desperation move
