Report: Knicks’ Pablo Prigioni may return to Spanish league for his wife – CBSSports.com

New York Knicks‘ backup point guard Pablo Prigioni enjoyed a nice rookie season in the NBA at the young age of 35. He was a productive member of the Knicks’ second unit and had a great season shooting the ball. He made 45.5 percent of his shots and 39.6 percent of his 3-pointers. During the playoffs, he started 10 of the 11 games he played in and helped the Knicks advance to Game 6 of the second round.

Prigioni isn’t sure whether he’ll return to the Knicks next season. Marc Berman of the New York Post is reporting that it’s possible he’ll return to Spain to play professional basketball because his wife wants to be back there.

Point guard Pablo Prigioni faces a tough decision on whether to stay in the NBA or return to the Spanish League next season, because his wife, Raquel, wants to return overseas, according to a source.

Prigioni on Saturday continued to be noncommittal on whether he wants to return to the Knicks.

“I think it’s not the moment to talk about that now,” Prigioni said after the Game 6 playoff ouster. “It’s painful to lose. It’s painful to start the vacation now. This is about the team. Now I stay quiet.”

Disorganized Pregame rant

The Knicks face a must-win game 6 tonight in Indy and the odds are stacked against them. Only 4% of teams have come back from a 3-1 hole. Indiana is 5-0 at home in the playoffs and has won all 5 games by double digits. The Pacers have beaten the Knicks in all 4 matchups at the Fieldhouse this season. The Knicks have not won back-to-back games since they won 3 in a row to start the first round. The odds certainly favor the Pacers. But the Knicks can win. The Knicks are a more talented team, and their obstacles heading into tonight’s game seem to be mental. The difference between playing at home and on the road is mental, not physical. If the Knicks can ignore the crowd, avoid getting sucked into the muted Indiana atmosphere, and play their game they way they do when they are clicking, they can win. If our shotmakers make their shots, if we can keep the rebounding battle close, if we get a little good luck in terms of the officiating, if we can stay out of foul trouble, and if we play hard for 48 minutes, we will win. If not, our season will end early. Again.
