Donald Sterling...

Again, he's a disgusting human being, but at least he's making competent business decisions lately. I'd love for the team to be sold, but honestly most NBA owners are scumbags, just not as much as the guy who paid the cops to ignore his son murdering his son's friend.

 

[Truphenom]

Sterling sucks, but I don't see him trying to trade shump and a pick for fucking faried.

 

[Blackace]

I'd take Sterling over Dolan in a heartbeat

He has like 23 top 10 picks and 3 number 1s

Is racist

And just a horrible person


Naw if Dolan had a good GM he would be a semi-ok owner just from his willingness to spend

 

[Blackace]

He traded Zach for Q Rich

Yeah but Dolan doesn't hire any GMs that won't be his bitch. That's part and parcel of why he's so bad.

 

[Truphenom]

He traded Zach for Q Rich

Lol, fine. Besides Sterling, who's as bad as Dolan?

 

[Blackace]

Lol, fine. Besides Sterling, who's as bad as Dolan?

In basketball? Maybe MJ

 

[Truphenom]

In basketball? Maybe MJ

I'd take my chances. We're gonna max Melo after trading Shump just to win 1 more game in the first round.

 

[giri]

Nope. He'd still be terrible because he involves him self way too much and over rides his GM all the time. It wouldn't matter who you hired because they have no authority and Dolan does what ever he wants anyway.

In basketball? Maybe MJ

And whats so bad about MJ?

Sarver has been p.bad for the suns. But he seems to have learned a few lessons and is letter McD run things now.

The owners of the Nuggets seem pretty bad.

Dan Gilbert wasn't good for the Cavs when LBJ was there. He basically acted the way Dolan does.

 

[Emwitus]

Shump for faried? I'd do it if i were the knicks not so much if i were denver.

Hey, baby steps are a priceless milestone.

 

[Truphenom]

Hey, baby steps are a priceless milestone.

Can't wait for the baby step where nepotism doesn't win out on a roster spot over a glaring need for a big man lol

 

[Emwitus]

Okay wait, are knicks fans really mad at this trade? The fudge!

High energy effort guys are not a good fit for the Knicks IMO.

Well then lol

 

[Matrix]

Lin starting and T Jones.

Twin Tower's are over.

 

[Vic]

Lin starting and T Jones.

Twin Tower's are over.

finally

 

[Truphenom]

Okay wait, are knicks fans really mad at this trade? The fudge!

Shump is one of 2 players who play defense. Faried won't help that. Plus he's one of our rare draft picks lol.

 

[Psychological Intellect]

Okay wait, are knicks fans really mad at this trade? The fudge!

Faried can't shoot. Doesn't play good defense. Doesn't help any of the knicks problems.

Shump is their best perimeter defender. Shump plays defense. defense. He can somewhat shoot.

The trade doesn't make any sense.

 

[Matrix]

finally

Harden isn't playing though, guess thats why Lin is starting.

 

[Forever]

Knicks fans can breathe for now.

But it looks like Shump is definitely on the chopping block. I wonder what lesser offer Dolan ends up accepting.

 

[Tom Penny]

Go Bobcats !!!

 

[Matrix]

How is it possible no one can get the ball to Howard smh

Lin looks good again.

 

[Fox318]

He has like 23 top 10 picks and 3 number 1s

Knicks never get the hope for young talent. We trade away our picks for bums.

Is racist

Dolan is an egomanic who pays his way to tour with Bruce Springsteen.

And just a horrible person

How many sports team owners are good people?

Naw if Dolan had a good GM he would be a semi-ok owner just from his willingness to spend

He just fired the person who set up this team only to rehire the dude who had the team in cap hell for 10 years and gave him more power.

 

[Psychological Intellect]

Adrian Wojnarowski ‏@WojYahooNBA 1h
Denver has made it clear to Kenneth Faried's reps: There are no active talks involving him. Knicks offered Shumpert. Denver rejected idea.

I guess there's no more discussing that.

 

[Cheddahz]

But it looks like Shump is definitely on the chopping block. I wonder what lesser offer Dolan ends up accepting.

Shump for Gerald Wallkce

 

[Smokey]

Harden out and the team Rockets are playing decent defense lolz

 

[dalVlatko]

Dan Gilbert wasn't good for the Cavs when LBJ was there. He basically acted the way Dolan does.

I wouldn't stay that. Cavs were never negatively affected by him as an owner until Comic Sans happened.

 

[Vic]

Rockets looking much more cohesive on the offensive end.

 

[Emwitus]

Knicks fans can breathe for now.

But it looks like Shump is definitely on the chopping block. I wonder what lesser offer Dolan ends up accepting.

As they should have

 

[pilonv1]

Chris Cohan was the worst owner in the NBA but at least he eventually sold the team.

Knicks fans can breathe for now.

But it looks like Shump is definitely on the chopping block. I wonder what lesser offer Dolan ends up accepting.

Shumps or a pick. not both

 

[Vic]

lmao @ the Sixers' coach.

 

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

The legendary season of never making any jumpers ever in order to get Randle/Wiggins/Parker/Exum. 3/33 on corner threes for the Jazz is a bit rough though.

Tom Haberstroh ‏@tomhaberstroh 11h
6 of the 7 top scorers for the Heat are shooting over 50 percent this season. The Jazz barely have one (Enes Kanter, 50.9 percent)

Those shots for the Jazz have to start falling, right?


right?

 

[giri]

huh?

Thats the same thing.

And Yeah, Cohan was bad, so were the former kings owners. But i was trying to stay on current owners. The former Grizz owner wasn't that great either, nor Cats, NO Hornetts.

 

[Matrix]

James Anderson.. former Rocket....

12 points 5/5 already, this is sad.

 

[LegendofJoe]

MKG hit a jumpshot


and it looked smooth

dies.....

 

[Matrix]

Fuck former Rockets.

Every damn time this happens.

 

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

Those shots for the Jazz have to start falling, right?


right?

Richard Jefferson and John Lucas suck, but they should be able to make wide open threes so they should start going in, but this hasn't been the case so far this year.

 

[diehard]

The legendary season of never making any jumpers ever in order to get Randle/Wiggins/Parker/Exum. 3/33 on corner threes for the Jazz is a bit rough though.

if we dont win tonight we have a really good shot at starting 0-16.

0-16

Those shots for the Jazz have to start falling, right?


right?

If you thought the Heat were a 3 man team.. holy shit watch us.

That's stupid, i knew they would try something with shmup.

MJ does everything that Gilbert and Dolan did/does plus embarrasses his players in practice

 

[victreeb3l]

Haha Avery is on ESPN now?

This is even more embarassing.

 

[Vic]

Linsanity, reborn through the ashes of Harden!

 

[giri]

There's a distinct difference in that MJ considers the Bobcats his full time Job and seems to be dedicating himself to them full time. He also has a... much better understanding of the requirements / scouting than the others would. Where as for Gilbert/Dolan their franchises are just part of a larger portfolio.

It's not that uncommon for a GM to be a former player, supported by a much more technical person. MJ has that with Cho operating as his GM.

It's probably better that he scrimms with his players and teaches them somethings from the GOAT, then going around and embarrassing them with comic sans promises.

I really don't see MJ on the other guys level. Not yet. There needs to be at least a decade of incompetence first. And embarrassingly so.

 

[ratcliffja]

Lin remains an above average point guard worthy of a starting position but maybe not of his contract. I really like him, though.

 

[victreeb3l]

Damnit I wanna watch the Rox on TV

Why are the Knicks on ESPN -_-

 

[charsace]

Shump is my favorite player. I think he can be a great 2 way player. Great shooter from the outside and one of the top perimeter defenders in the league. Would be great on the bulls.

Dolan's love FOR JR is crazy.

 

[The Frankman]

Knicks basically need to go 3-2 on this 5-game stretch. Have 3 straight home games starting tonight, just take care of business.

Dunno why Prigs isn't starting, but Knicks need to get Artest/Martin more burn. And can the Knicks actually utilize Shump as a defender? They never put him on the top scoring guard anymore.

 

[charsace]

Lin remains an above average point guard worthy of a starting position but maybe not of his contract. I really like him, though.

Lin has been really good so far I am inclined to believe nagging injuries hurt him last season.

He seems to be a victim of discrimination. Guys talking about his contract is something that usually isn't done.

 

[thekad]

This defense...

Order being restored in Celtics land.
