Im 50/50 on Gallo. One minute he seems like another soft Euro just like Bargs or whoever and the next he seems like a bigger poor man's version of Ginobli. Only time will tell I guess but I think he would do good if you guys got the 2 big time FA's that you are looking for and have someone like Livingston at the point

Owned in the first half and early third quarter before the Wiz went in full tank mode. Started raining when the Wiz clearly turned their attention to ping pong balls. He's somewhere in the middle if you ask me. I project him to be a 3rd or 4th option on a really good team.

He's showed signs to me. He is inconsistent, but he has that fire that if you hit him, he'll go off on you. Or if he has something really to play for, he can go off. Thats why I hope that if the Knicks do sign good players this off season, I could see us making the playoffs and him just playing out of his mind because of this fire he has. But thanks for your opinion, because being a fan of him, its hard to give an honest opinion on him.

Definitely an explosive scorer with great range, but his shot selection leaves a lot to be desired. He threw up a couple of fade-away 3's... ugly. And he seems to be a tweener. Playing the 3... I haven't seen enough of him, but I'm assuming he has defensive problems. Can he build up his body to play the 4 - and rebound better? I don't think many 4's could guard a "stretch 4" like him.

He's actually most likely our 2nd or 3rd best defender, and at times has even been put on the other team's best player. So he is I'd say he's average to slightly above average on defense, due to his lenth allows him to guard, and he's actually faster than he seems on D. One thing about the shot selection, he actually doesn't have a bad one per say, its just the fact that, he is always looking to play team ball, so when he does actually be selfish for one play its usually a bad shot. But since the Knicks are full of expiring contracts no one else really wants to play team ball which affects his own play.
