Larry Brown: Wanted Qyntel Woods
Quote:
While the signing smacks of another Isiah Thomas gamble, the Knicks president revealed Larry Brown pushed this move to fill the Knicks' open roster spot created by Matt Barnes' release.
In fact, Thomas didn't sound fully convinced. "He's a talent, but it's kind of 50-50," said Thomas. "It's hit or miss. No one's questioned his basketball-playing ability. His character has been questioned."
It's a low-risk move. According to source, Woods signed a non-guaranteed deal at the league minimum ($350,000). His contract doesn't become guaranteed until Jan. 10. Woods, 24, was charged in 2003 with marijuana possession and pled guilty last January to first-degree misdemeanor, linked to raising pitbulls for dog-fighting. According to Portland police reports, Woods told an officer he was addicted to marijuana.
