Time 2 cut bait with this under achiever.

Knicks won't eat that ridiculous contract. They're hoping to get this worthless piece of shit in some kind of shape so they can trade his fat ass. Who the hell would want him?

The Clippers.....

Graycap23 said:

They want Iverson....seesh, no wonder the Clips are NBA purgatory. Poor Blake Griffin - he should have pulled a John Elway.

He should have. They are even dumber than the Bulls current mgmt.

Is Odom leaving the Lakers?

Graycap23 said:

Doubt it. He'll end up getting 1 million less than he's asking.

Iverson to the clippers could be a good move by both parties.
Star power for the clippers living in the lakers shadow.
Also good insurance for an older Baron Davis who needs less
playing time on an older body and he has been injury prone the past two seasons.

How could Odom turn down this kind of $$?

Lakers team officials, who were not authorized to speak about the negotiations, said Buss offered Odom a deal for $9 million a season for four years at $36 million, or $10 million a season over three years for a total of $30 million.

That's how the game is played. It's who blinks first.

They will probably try to sign Lee and trade him with Curry as a throw in. Then, without Lee, they will really suck and no free agent in his right mind will sign with the Knicks. Seriously, what do they have without Lee. Robinson will probably go to Greece. Harrington stinks. Duhon is mediocre. Bargnani is a benchwarmer at best.

I love the Knicks, but I think they will be a crappy team for a long time. I will be surprised if they make the playoffs any time in the next 5 years.

Isiah was dogged as GM.....what is the new guy doing?

Graycap23 said:

Isiah should have been tarred, feathered, and beaten for running my team into the ground with his stupid trades and ridiculous contracts. Fuck that lowlife piece of shit scumbag...hope he rots in hell. Walsh has to undo eight years of bad decisions by Zeke and the other idiot Scott Layden.

uPtoWnNY said:

How is Walsh's performance so far?

Graycap23 said:

For what he has to work with, I'll give him a B. Most important thing he did was getting us under the cap so he can make a big push for the top FAs in 2010. Finally we have a GM who thinks long term.

uPtoWnNY said:

Kool. Funny how every team in the league is trying 2 sign the same 3 or 4 players all of whom will probablby re-up with their current team.

uPtoWnNY said:

I think it was great to get rid of Randolph. While I liked Crawford, trading him away was the correct move, IMO. All of this happened while increasing the win total by almost 50% from the previous year. Regardless, I am waiting to make a decision on Walsh. The whole Lee thing has got me worked up. I can't understand why he would not want Lee on the team. I have said this before, and I will say it again. Lee is the ultimate no. 2 guy for any team. He is good for 15 and 10 every night. He hits a good percentage of his free throws. If he could put together a respectable 15 foot jump shot, he would be complete. Answer me this, why the hell would Walsh not want to have him on the team?

Darwintheorgangrinder said:

Is it Walsh or the coach that doesn't want Lee?

Graycap23 said:

The Knicks like Lee, but Walsh will not overpay to keep him or Nate(Cavs/Varejao). Walsh has his eyes on 2010, and I agree with him.

uPtoWnNY said:

I agree that Nate can go. He is amazing some nights, and awful other nights. But what elite player in their right mind is going to want to go to the Knicks without Lee. As it stands, they are heavily lacking in talent. If they get rid of Lee, they will have no talent. Everyone seems to think that just because they are the NY team that people will want to go there. They are no better than any other crappy team right now, and none of those teams should expect to get a big 2010 FA.
