Hey Jackie, you know what is REALLY interesting about that NYT link above?

Jamal Crawford’s quote has been subtly altered from how he was quoted earlier in the day by other media outlets. Specifically, he was quoted as referring to NY as “there” twice in earlier reports, and in the NYT link the same quote uses “here”.

Is this the Knicks’ PR department trying to make Jamal seem classier as he heads out the door?

Id rather take Camby than TT, the reject from years past. Although i’d live with it if it means Lebron+ coming here in 2010. A pipe dream, but a good one.

oh cool – sup Bilz!

Jackie, i really hope Thomas gets asked to stay on the West Coast. Money for nothing. All three tri-state teams have run his “fugazy” ass out of town and no one misses him.

Pathetic scrub from the neck up. May a thousand cockroaches infest his sock drawer.

Bilz is, I believe, KD’s brother.

Hmmm….does that mean Bilz is impersonating KD, or vice-versa?

Dolla dolla.

fiscal awareness is its own reward, KD. Even if we don’t get the big prize in 2010 Free Agency we’d at least have more trade-friendly pieces.

Besides, Mr. Stern got the Knicks a nice favorable early-season schedule – a nod to old pal Donnie Walsh methinks, to help get his nascent stewardship off to a good start to help keep the natives from slinging too many spears. Not that that’ll stop us!!! =)

i understand they are trying to get under the cap but isnt this the best the Knicks record has been in like 6 years? Randolph was playing like an all star and Crawford was finally shooting over 38 percent from the field in God knows how long. Why would they wait so long to stir the pot. I guess the playoffs are outta the question for them now, if they dont get anyone good in 2010 this will be another monumental waste of time and haven’t they had enough of those to last eons in recent history?

HAHA nothing written in stone yet my man, we all just gotta wait and see….Jamal is gone though, he has already been quoted:

“It’s a whole new regime,” said Crawford on Friday morning. “You can’t take stuff like this personally. I got to be professional and not take it personal.

“I’ll be closer to home. It wouldn’t be the end of the world. It would be disappointing. When things were bad, I was there. I wanted to be there when things got good.”
