If he gets more PT than Brown I'm speechless. He's a nice kid and tries his best but isn't a good player at all.

That’s fine. A cheap two guard off the bench who at least has experience and plays hard.

Why?

No, it's not fine. He's not an NBA player. This is as useful as signing you to a deal to come off the bench.

LOL

Right like there’s so much better out there. Who cares? I’m all about the tank and for a team that only tries half the time, you might as well get some scrappy players.

he can shoot it a little. And he hustles.

seems I've read somewhere recently we need more guys who hustle. there are ways to change culture without making big moves...

jus saying

The Knicks are laughing, it makes no sense bumping White for this guy

Welcome to the new Titletown USA

This is a great signing. You can't think of Ron Baker on his own; you have to think of him in partnership with Chasson Randle -- think Charonsson Leakerbrand.

Charronson Bearkandler is a heck of a players.

Yup, that was my thought when I saw it. He's simply not an NBA caliber player. He hustles, but his physical ability is a joke.

I didn't even know who this guy was, I was thinking Vin Baker in my head.

I was thinking Dusty Baker. Hopefully Ernie signed the Baker he actually intended to sign.

I loved that Wichita State team with Baker, Fred van fleet, and cleanthony Early.

Baker plays defense like a maniac, but he’s not good.

Ernie with another dumb signing. he's not even d leauge level talent let alone nba.

On the plus side, the Wiretap photo looks a little like a younger Dirk Nowitzki if you squint a little.

Surfs up, dude!

Soooo..... they signed SHOOTING guard who CAN"T shoot.

Wonderful.

He's horrible as a shooter. I get it. Will get after it on defense. Didn't even know the shooting numbers were that bad. I think it's a good sign though that maybe they are just giving up and picking up anybody that plays hard, no matter how bad they are at playing basketball.
