    Let the drama commence!

    Gallinari....not sure what the Knicks fans think, but I thought he was a waste of a pick to pick that high. New York could've gotten someone less....like this lol

    I wouldn't say he's a bust this early. The Knicks are considering sending him to the D-League just for him to get in game shape.

    With that said, I think every Knick fan is eager to see what he can bring to the table. But we are steadily losing patience with him.

    What is your overall opinion about him, cause I was looking at him during draft time, and I could see some college players who had his same potential or more that got picked after him.

    I don't know man, Gallo has a lot of potential. Contrary to what they listed him during the draft, Gallo is 6'11 with shoes on. There aren't too many players in the league that can handle the ball like a guard for his height. He's also a great shooter, passer, and competitor. He'll be the type to put up around 10/5/4 and have more of an impact than someone who puts up 20 on a not so efficient FG%. I definitely understand the logic in drafting him. If he pans out, I can see him having at least a Turkoglu type of impact on the team.

    This is my favorite move from him:

    I did not realize he was that tall lol, I assumed 6'8" range on his height. But damn he is fast.
