^Bro we saw already the last 3 times you posted it.

--Mags

What are you talking about? I never posted that before at all. The first time I posted anything similar it was regarding Yao being medically cleared. However, if you actually read the details of my latest post it's more focused on Yao clarifying the comments previously reported by the media that said he would potentially retire from the NBA. Yao is basically saying he never spoke of the NBA but instead of possibly retiring from the Chinese National Team.

The second portion of my post refers to Ricky Rubio and his effectiveness going up against some of the best the NBA has to offer in the World Championships exhibition game last Sunday. I'm effectively proving that he is a PROVEN commodity, more so than the Wes Johnson's of the world when others were arguing against it. Here we have a kid that has played well against TWO Team USA renditions and to assume he is an unknown against NBA competition doesn't make any sense and is a hollow argument. I have provided quotes from NBA players talking up his game in detail regarding his abilities and effectiveness.

Where have I posted such details before?

We get the 2 guys we desperately need and sort out the big man glut.

Agreed, and ditto for the Knicks. We sort out our SG glut and get the Big Man we need and balance out out Roster even further!

Troy Murphy (who is 3 Years younger than Vince Carter, shoots better, fills our PF Depth needs, and averaged 14.6 PPG and 10 RPG). He is also an additional expiring who saves us about $14 Million and boosts our Team and balances it further. He will REALLY help further our Championship run!

Welcome to the Team Troy!

This may really be my last trade.








No, I mean it.

[Miklo]

Welcome Troy, trade helps both teams greatly!

Exactly the kind of deal I was talking about... For the first time in many years, I maybe able to say that the Knicks are now elite! Nicely done.

what about the Twolves? I think we have an outstanding squad and we are also very young.

[NewEra]

Good deal guys.

Ra, I understand why you would make a trade like this and don't dislike it for you as much as the couple other ones earlier. This balances out your roster. However, I am not a Vince Carter fan at all. I feel he is just about finished. It is a trade that may work for both sides due to the fact you each gave an area of strength for an area of weakness, I just happen to like Murphy more then Carter at this stage of their careers. Not a bad trade though by any means.

Murphy is a good player. He brings a lot but he has a lot of drawbacks too. I think Carter is still a great third option on a team like this. I truly feel that my roster is set and can win a championship right away or with the signing of one guy can be a great team.

Looking for another team, for a potential 3 way trade (Involving major players). Email me if interested: Q2N8@aim.com

I do understand why you made it. Your roster is more balanced now. I just don't like VC, I think he is about two years past being a number three option on a championship team.

Nice pick 2010, I know there is hate for Duhon, but I was beginning to think I could get him in the free-for-all!

Thanks! I was surprised he fell right in my lap when I was worried there wouldn't be any quality backup point guards left. I'm glad all of my fellow Knicks fans underappreciate him because it allowed me to get him. He is an excellent backup point guard playing ~18mpg. He was misused as a starter logging 38mpg in a supposed fast-paced offense. That really was not his fault. He fits in nicely off my bench with the other halfcourt-oriented vets like Posey and Ilgauskas.

For your sake, I agree that judges should come from other boards. Not many like Duhon around these parts, and would judge with a bias. That wouldn't be fair.

[NBA Fan 1234]

Great pick, 2010. He was one of the players that I was hoping would fall through the cracks to me lol. Even though we, as Knicks fans, do not like Duhon, he is nonetheless a solid backup.

If anyone is interested in trading with me, email me at realballa1214@yahoo.com . I'm willing to move anyone, for the right price (other players) and I'm also looking to make a smaller deal for an upcoming pick.

I have pick 387, if interested in acquiring it let me know

[2010]

Thanks newera & Knicks1214 for keeping it real despite an unpopular opinion of a player on our board. There is a reason that guy never lasts long on the free agent market for teams looking for a backup pg.

[Smoke24]

Well Duhon isn't completely incompetent. He's just not starting material. He can give you a few threes a game and about 4-5 assists.
