Ron continues to claw playing time away from Courtney Lee and the other Knicks guards. Fred is biding his time until an opportunity arises while seeing only occasional minutes so far.
Pretty amazing accomplishment and a very cool experience for both players.
It's funny how much an NBA Draft is picked based solely off potential, but when push comes to shove, those consistent 4 years guys with a great track record (Baker/FVV) tend to find a mold within an NBA roster.
Never will they be stars, but you need those types surrounding your stars to be successful.
Good for both of them.
