Now that all the rumors about David Lee leaving NYC for Portland, Toronto, Kansas City or where ever else they had him going each day are over… We here at realknicksfans.com can take a deep collective long breath….Ahh now lets all focus on what we got out of the trades.
Larry Hughes
Damn I guess now we can take over this guys site if he is willing to part with it. That shit is hilarious. Well I hope we don’t have the same problems that the Cavs fans had with Big Shot Larry. He has improved his shooting percentage over the last year, but he has also spent a big part of this season on the bench as Vinny Del Negro pretty much shut him down.
But Larry Hughes for those bench warmers we let go of is not a bad deal (I think).
We also get another crazy tatted up basketball player. We are definitely in top 5 teams with the worst tattoos.
Chris Wilcox
I don’t know anything about this guy. You can look at his stats here.
We got rid of Malik Rose, who I never really cared for anyway.
I always felt that he was lazy and didn’t care about being on the court or off either way.
So we let go of 3 guys and got 2 back, that means there is an open roster space. Hmm Could this be the call up for our friend Patrick Ewing Jr. from Las Vegas? I hope so, we’ve been pushing for that all season long.
Stepped onto the train yesterday with my Steve’s Bagels coffee and Daily news in hand and just as I snuck in front of an old lady to grab a seat i spotted this….Kmart bought out the entire inside advertising panels for one side of the whole car. I was pretty shocked to see it since i have seen no other advertising and only got the drop that they would be available at Kmart while watching the pre-game the night before. I was even more shocked when that night on another line i saw the same thing, and AGAIN this morning.
Needless to say Kmart is droppping some money here. They probably think this could be the next Starbury or something. It won’t. Al has no where near the following that Steph once had in this city.
I wish Al and his biz venture good luck, as we posted a few weeks ago the sneakers are not that bad. Will probably snatch a pair over the weekend, their only like 35 bux and the economy could use some help.

Rumors are swirling that we may be saying goodbye to fan favorite D-Lee today. He is my favorite on the team, and i would rather him stay,but my mind is 2010….I dont see any trades that make sense as long as we sign him. But if Donnie doesn’t want to sign him he may be gone for a draft pick or 2….Today is sure to be interesting around the league.
Heres a blast from the past about some bust trades.

Maybe this is the NBA’s version of a consolation prize. After getting D-nied for a spot on the all star team, the NBA has awarded David Lee with the Player of the week award.
Good to see someone paying attention to his strong week where he helped the team go 3-0 and league leading 36 dub dubs.
Also news coming in that Orlando’s Jamier Nelson may be out of the All-Star mix with a shoulder injury that may lead to a backdoor nod for Lee. He certainly is deserving and would be a good mix to the squad.

This is not how dream week was suppose to start out for us. It pains
me to my spine to say this but…. hats off to Kobe in what was a
dominating and historic night at the garden.
In what Spike Lee dubbed a Roger Marris, Kobe dropped 61 points in a very pro Laker and fan friendly garden. No need for an asterisk here folks, unfortunately
Kobe now holds the Garden point crown.
It’s no secret I hate Kobe. He’s too cocky and has a certain smugness to him.
I’m much happier when he’s getting a mouthful of fist on the
garden floor than when he’s making the game look so so simple.
I don’t blame the Knicks for allowing this on their home court
yesterday, Kobe was determined from the opening tip and when great
players are, there’s very few in the league who can stop them. They pushed him around and fouled
him countless times but still nothing, he was unstoppable on this
night, Feb 2nd 2009.

How often in your Knicks 2010 conversations have you mentioned Lebron and Wade both getting signed to play here? Most people you meet would think that was talk straight from the loony bin. Adding some more fuel to the 2010 signing fire, Wade said “its not crazy” to think that both he and the King can be a tandem in NYC. You may not want to trust Wades sanity because he later went on to say he would welcome Steph to play for the Heat in hopes of making a playoff run. Dudes lost his mind.

Another year, another no show at the all star game.
Tomorrow we’ll find out if D Lee made the list of reserve players to this years All Star game on Feb 15th in PHX. Dialy news had a good article today about his chances against the rest of the East. They make points both for-he’s the best center after Dwight Howard, and against- the Knicks are sub .500.
But f all that. He’s our guy and we haven’t has an all star around here since Allan Houston. I think his league leading 32 double doubles and the recent surge of the Knicks toward that number 8 spot will be enough to get him noticed by the Coaches and on the squad. Here’s to optimism.
