Knicks Sign Roberson
Anthony Roberson, who had a 22 points in his summer league debut, was signed to a 2-year contract last night by the Knicks. The Knicks now have 16 guaranteed contracts, one over the league maximum. Marc Berman speculates that this could mean the end of Stephon Marbury, or possibly Jerome James.
Roberson looked good against Cleveland, but I have to admit I know very little about him. I mentioned how the Knicks couldn’t sign him because of the lack of an opening, but clearly I was wrong. Some have compared him to Jannero Pargo or Eddie House. I get the sense this is a player that could thrive in the D’Antoni System. I will watch him more closely against San Antonio and give everyone a report to see where he fits.
