The Knicks have released P Ewing Jr. I have seen the guy play and to me he looks like a very raw Ron Artest. He has great size, body control and can defend several spots.

Would he be a good pickup if it means dumping someone else on the roster?
A 24 yr old wing who can defend and is improving as a shooter...a young Bowen in the making?

Something about DROB4EVER asking for Patrick Ewing Jr. seems full of iron to me.

I just would like to have one guy on our team that has a better vertical leap than I do!:rollin

I'd go so far as to say it's even a bit ironic.

He is nothing like Ron Artest.

Go view Artests rookie year, he is very similar on the defensive end. Remember this guy got drafted and wasnt even a starter at G Town. He could be a very good defender able to play wings and Pfs.

Ron Artest is a very robotic player on the offensive side of the ball even after being in the leauge 8 years. Ewing is very nimble. Just thought he may be a guy to take a look at cause Farmer looks like players we already have in triplicate!

Hopefully he is not illiterate like his old man. There are enough of those in San Antonio already.

I just as soon have Hairston back in the fold.

If not him, Linton Johnson III

I think Pop would be more likely to sign Ewing Sr.

Making fun of someone's grammar usage isn't a niacin thing to do Ed.

There will B 12 players on the final roster but I don't think Ewing will be one of them. He might benefit from some time in the D League, but I haven't seen anything that makes me think he could make a pro tein.

I think he was trying to make a funny.

I know I was. :downspin:

Coby Karl is a better prospect than him.

No. Seriously. I'm an IU alumn and have followed Ewing since he was a Hoosier, back in the Mike Davis days. He's mobile, energetic, and hustles, but by no means is he anywhere close to as talented as Artest is. I see what you're saying -- Artest is a banger and very physical -- but Ewing has nothing like his all-round skills.

Why must we go after every young player who is waived?

Agreed.

Although it wouldn't shock me if he became a Udonis Haslem type. Good athlete, high energy, good wingspan, showed just enough range in college that he could probably develop a reliable 10-12 footer with work.

I'm not sure I'd be willing to drop any of the current 15 for him, but I think he'll find a home somewhere in this league eventually.
