Knicks waste no time and cut Taurean Green and Bobby Jones

Tuesday, July 29th, 2008

Randolph Morris doesn't count due to the fact that he never got to play. And as much as it pains me to write this, Isiah Thomas is still getting paid to be a Knick. Drum roll, please. So according to Ken Berger, the first Knick player voted off Donnie Walsh's island may in ...
