I got an XBOX dawg.
wow sell the xbox and get ps3 dawg
for real. xbox is whack yo.
really guys? get back to the article. haha
umm, this topic has been posted a number of times.
but anyways, I actually don’t know why he hasnt been signed yet.
maybe because he spent most of the season in the dleague?
I really dont know.
I watched some highlights of him on youtube. He’s a big that has a jumpshot, but no inside game and cannot play defense with the big boys. Also I think playing in New York and the up-tempo style may have padded his stats more than maybe he’s worth. I completely agree however we need more depth. Anyone heard what the deal is with signing Fes?
I believe he would be good for jazz hes got good size has a decent mid rage game and can move pretty well for his height, plus he would be cheap to get. I believe if we got him he could work on his defense aswell.
I raved about Barron replacing Fes until I got tired of repeating myself and stopped but really, it’s as simple as you put it. Better to take a promising chance than settle with what you know won’t get you anywhere.
XBOX SUCKS ALL ABOUT PS3
TODAY NEWS:
“The Knicks are not expected to bring back Earl Barron as a fourth center on the roster, which I expect will result in great dismay from you Barronites out there. He played all of seven games last season — hey, that equaled Eddy Curry — but he left a strong enough impression on fans to conjure regular requests from Fixer Nation for me to look into his status with the 2010-11 roster.
With Curry, Ronny Turiaf and Russian rookie Timofey Mozgov on the depth chart at center, the Knicks aren’t in the market for yet another big man. The discovery (and signing) of Mozgov effectively ended Barron’s chances of a return, even after rookie Jerome Jordan opted to go to Serbia rather than come to camp this year.
The Knicks initially tried to sign Barron at the end of the 09-10 season, when he averaged 11.7 points and 11 rebounds in 33.1 minutes per game in the final two weeks of the season. He was offered a non-guaranteed contract for 10-11 and turned it down, mainly because he was hoping to get something more secure – perhaps even from the Knicks – during the offseason.”
