You don't give guys that kind of money because of playoff performance.

Nope. Not surprising this is a Knicks signing.

Re: Jerome James Signs with the NY Knicks

That contract isn't terrible. Good pickup. The Knicks need immense help on the boards. God knows that's something Channing Frye will not be providing any time soon. Think that had no effect on this signing?

Re: Jerome James Signs with the NY Knicks

This is a good signing if Jerome James become a consistent player who plays like the one we saw in the playoffs. If not, which is more likely, it's not a good signing. the guy doesn't love the game, so I'm guessing after he gets paid, he'll kick back a little bit.

Re: Jerome James Signs with the NY Knicks

excuse me....... foyle got 43 million last offseason i believe. for a guy over 7 feet, who could play basketball... its not a bad contract.

length is the only issue, cause of his work ethic(since people say he doesnt have one), but only time will tell if he wants to play or not.

Re: Jerome James Signs with the NY Knicks

I think it is pretty reasonable. He is a huge guy and the knicks need one of those

James won't help them a bit. He would suck in the NBDL.

Re: Jerome James Signs with the NY Knicks

This is a good year to be a free agent I guess.I know that the Knicks are desperate for size,but it isn't as though James is going to make them noticeably better.If you really believed that Channing Frye was worth the 8th pick you better not start Jerome James ahead of him.
