Ronaldo? Oh hell no -- he looks like a game-free Joakim Noah. Maybe N8, as a mini-mini Microwave sort.

i guess all i've seen balkman do is run around on some najera type shit. maybe 11th or 12th man material? and that's one of zeke's draft 'gems'

whatever nate gives you scoring is taken back ten fold by his mini-hulk attitude.

didn't he fight someone in the postgame showers? yall see eastern promises? i imagine it was like that.

That article is pretty good. Spike Lee saying "hornswoggled" alone makes it worthwhile. The intervention when trying to get an interview with Malik Rose was especially o_O

yeah i read this shit yesterday when i was supposed to be doing something else and would totally click again A++

i havent watched the knicks live in like a year and a half and im pretty sure my life is better for it

J0rdan S., Thursday, 10 April 2008 03:46 (sixteen years ago) link

Actually, watching the Knicks flail about and screw their pooch is pretty entertaining (cf. YouTube of Zach Randolph: Male Point Guard). It's like the reverse of watching the Celts or Phoenix or Lakers click on all cylinders.

Best thing about this year: Jamal Crawford's mondo-sized shoulder bandage.

Also YES re: that fantastic NY article!

So Mark Jackson's a possible coaching candidate, & announced during last night's game that he's leaving the YES broadcast booth?

David R., Thursday, 17 April 2008 18:37 (sixteen years ago) link

Does Mark Jackson have any management experience?

Alex in SF, Thursday, 17 April 2008 18:49 (sixteen years ago) link

Dunno. Didn't stop Steve Kerr from getting the Phoenix GM job, tho. Hell, didn't keep Isiah Thomas from doing what he did, either!

David R., Thursday, 17 April 2008 18:53 (sixteen years ago) link

i was kind of warming to the jackson/van gundy tandem. seems like jackson is stepping in shit but he'll get points just for coaching at all after this nonsense

tremendoid, Friday, 18 April 2008 03:35 (sixteen years ago) link

My one fear: lots of "you're better than that" references.

David R., Friday, 18 April 2008 12:31 (sixteen years ago) link

"Dunno. Didn't stop Steve Kerr from getting the Phoenix GM job, tho. Hell, didn't keep Isiah Thomas from doing what he did, either!"

Yeah and those were great moves!

Alex in SF, Friday, 18 April 2008 22:51 (sixteen years ago) link

I wonder if he gets another job anywhere now?

Alex in SF, Friday, 18 April 2008 22:51 (sixteen years ago) link

Oh wait it looks like he still going to be doing "something" for the Knicks.

Alex in SF, Friday, 18 April 2008 23:00 (sixteen years ago) link

wau, are we sure that donnie walsh is of sound mind and body?

circles, Saturday, 19 April 2008 00:33 (sixteen years ago) link

"And Thomas will be a part of that. Without getting specific, Walsh said there were assignments he’d feel completely comfortable giving to Thomas.

"Like washing my car, walking my dog, making sure my kids get to Little League. I will be in touch with Isiah a lot,” Walsh said.""

Alex in SF, Saturday, 19 April 2008 02:01 (sixteen years ago) link

The fact that Donnie Walsh is considering Billy King for GM does not bode well for the post-Thomas era.

these fucking guys!!

eddy fucking curry!! are you kidding me? franchise player??

GREENBURGH, N.Y. - Eleven minutes of Eddy Curry helped doom the possibility of 71 games of Allen Iverson.

That was one of the nuggets of information revealed by Knicks president Donnie Walsh this afternoon as he explained New York's decision to pass on the opportunity to sign unrestricted free agent Allen Iverson.

Curry played 11 minutes Wednesday night in the Knicks' victory in Indiana, and Walsh said the continued rehabilitation and re-integration of Curry -- along with the fear that Iverson would take minutes away from the young players the Knicks are trying to develop -- impacted the decision.

"That's part of it, because Eddy is now on the team and we've got to develop a lot of attention to Eddy from a franchise standpoint, because he went out there in 11 minutes and I thought actually changed the game in a lot of ways. Their big guys were having their way with us, which big men do because David (Lee) is not a natural center, and when Eddy went in -- just the fact that he could take the ball and go at them -- I could see they went back on their heels and they weren't the same after that no matter who was playing. I thought he helped us win the game right there. He's got a lot of talent, he's got great size, you can see he's worked on his body tremendously, so yeah, Eddy is a guy we're very high on, and we wanted to work with him."

carne asada, Friday, 20 November 2009 19:48 (fourteen years ago) link

which dudes are they developing? most these guys won’t even be there next year,right? i would have paid real money to go see Iverson at the garden this season.

It's almost as if, on top of putting a bad team together, they also want to avoid selling tickets.

Maybe they are trying to move the team a la Major League.

didn't they just pass on a slightly healthier over the hill scorer? one that they could have gotten for nothing.

tavoris Posted: Nov.23 at 10:14 am
hmmmmm, while this makes sense from a basketball standpoint, it doesn’t considering they just passed on another scorer (who’s healthier) that would get about 22 mil less this season.

carne asada, Monday, 23 November 2009 21:41 (fourteen years ago) link

i mean it makes sense only if they are clearing out contracts that are on the books past this season if they are still under the delusion theyre gonna sign two big stars. but who do they even have left?

I really like the idea of Lebron and Bosh (or whoever) playing on a team with 13 d-league guys.

When asked on Tuesday how much involvement Thomas had in the Anthony trade, Walsh jabbed, “I’m assuming Isiah’s getting ready for the NCAA tournament.”

lol.

Daniel, Esq., Tuesday, 22 February 2011 22:46 (thirteen years ago) link

Once, Thomas brought Dolan with him on a comic-strip recruiting mission of Kobe Bryant(notes): Together, they traveled to California armed with an electric offer: Come take the midlevel exception for a chance to play with Stephon Marbury(notes).

ahhahahahah

yeah, this sounds like an overblown story. this article sounds like it was kobe playing games with the LAL back in 2004. significantly, however, the linked article does say, in a completely serious-sounding tone, that the NYK tried to entice the LAL to trade kobe bryant for allan houston.
