Maybe we'll end up trading Yi tonight. And does anyone know when the **** Humphries decides on his option??

Haha I know I just want him to make up his mind. Hopefully he thinks his playing time will be limited here so he can just opt out. Imagine if he does, then we trade Yi :pray:

I feel like it's Christmas and I got a brand new PS3, but instead of getting games with it all I got was long johns and socks.

I can't wait until the Nets have to fill their roster with **** players now... Why oh why (I'm not getting over this any time soon someone sell me on Damion James, I mean there must be some redeeming qualities for a PF in the body of a SF with no SF skills right?)...

Not going to oversell him...he'll be ok. Watched a lot of big 12, thought he was good at TX. ESPN says James Posey-like, which is fair, but not nearly the 3-pt shooter. Decent defender, very good rebounder for his size. Best quality? Toughness...One tough SOB. Will compete. Improved his outside game this past year. I think he can play. Not a ringing endorsement, but I am not nearly as upset as some.

He's a NBA player, he really is. He'll probably have a long career.

I can't say I saw Andy Rautins and Lance Stephenson coming. I don't think too many Knick fans can say they did either.

I don't doubt it.

I think minny is going to regret ever hiring Kahn, he just blew two drafts in a row big time.

Sacto with the ROY two years in a row?



I expet Turner to be the rook of the year and for Iggy to be this year's Kevin Martin...traded mid year when it becomes obvious...cant work together. If the Knicks strike out with big time players...look for Philly to take Curry and Chandler for him, and try to get the Knicks to eat something extra. Or hold out for Gallo.

:lol: True, true...

I'm trying to think of a player to compare him to and I'm drawing a blank.

Maybe an unbathed, homeless man's Marion.
