He's Chris Copeland...just white and given more of the benefit of a doubt cause he was drafted and because folks (when he was in Chicago and now in NY) need him to be more.

Re: Carmelo’s potential replacement turning Knicks’ heads
Regardless of who he resembles, he can be serviceable player.
Rookie contract with 3.3 this year, QO 4.5 next. It is easy to move him now, it will be even easier to move later. If our coaching staff can get the best out of him (highly unlikely), his shooting seems smooth. We already have crappy defensive players and it is not his fault.
He shoots ball, he seems like he can move without the ball. Same age, similar shooting line with THJr. (little better on 3, little worse on EFG).
It would be interesting to see if Horny hide his D and maximise the shooting (I seriously doubt, not only Horny is incapable but we have too many toothless players on D; Enes, THJr, WHG, Beas, McD...)
If he has a nice season, we can use him as a sweetener to move a bad contract or 2 (Noah may be impossible but maybe Kanter's PO or LT).
