Apparently, there are possible D12 implications in the Humphries deal: http://espn.go.com/blog/truehoop/post/_/id/47923/to-make-sense-of-nets-deal-look-south
Glad to see that the Clippers got Grant Hill, if not the Lakers. He should provide them with good production and a solid veteran presence on the wings behind Caron.
Jamison to the Lakers is looking like a good deal. For that price, I don't think you're getting a more talented backup big, and Jamison has the potential to play well off of either Gasol or Bynum (or D12).

Lakers are about to show once again why it's better to be privileged than good.
|
Damn I want Grant Hill with the Lakers so I can root for him and Nash

Lin to Rockets, have fun Knicks fans
|
First smart thing the Knicks have done in a long time, that contract to Lin is absolutely ridiculous. He has simply not proven to be worth that money as a player.
I know he can make any team alot of money due to marketing, but the Knicks already make tons of money, for them its much more important to have a great team than some guy they can parade around.

And in his world, Dolan is a wise and benevolent owner who wishes nothing more than to win when Linsanity was a perfect example of $$$ promoting.

This is the one time I think the Knicks are justified in spending the $$ (Lin will make them that back easily, and Felton...jesus have they seen him play last year?) and they won't do it.
Only the Knicks.
|
Haha. Welcome scrub.
|
And I could have sworn you were a fan of Felton, Ace? Or maybe last year changed your mind too is what you are saying?
edit: like I remember you thinking it was a bad idea when NY originally got rid of him, but I might be wrong.
|
I don't dislike Felton, I think he caught a bad rap while IN NY. He went to Denver (was ok at best), got to Portland and was terrible. Now people say he's worth it? It's mind boggling how Knicks FO and fans evaluate players. He won't even be playing in the same system that made him good in NY. Look at how much he struggled in Portland when used as a shooter and pure distributor as opposed to having free reign on play calling.
ETA: The biggest issue is he's out of shape. If he doesn't come back this season in superb shape the Knicks are going to suffer HARD.

It will be hilarious when the Knicks miss the playoffs this year.
|
Amnesty Amare please
Used on Billups?
Then bench him for eternity thanks
|
Knicks already used it on Billups
|
Knicks won't miss the Playoffs--not a chance. The East is too weak and they're actually a better team than they were last year.

If not for lin they would have missed this year. They got better with the new additional players but more injury risk with their age.

Does anyone think a team will make an amnesty claim on Blatche?
|
i feel sorry for tyson, he's a solid player who deserves better than the knicks
amare is overpaid. melo is overpaid too, but at least he's a good scorer. jason kidd is old. etc etc etc
