I did not make up the name Karate James for nothing. First the Knicks got rid of 4 of my best punchlines.

I made up Choochie Norris, Buttney, Larry Brown aka Mr. Magoo, and Frye Guy. I will not let Karate James go because I will be losing material for my jokes.

I gave the guy every chance in the world to prove he could be a useful guy for this team and he just refused to get in any kind of shape. That to me is his biggest problem. He just doesn't have any drive or pride. To come here and embarrass himself like he has is hard to take. The guy had the easiest job in America. Make millions for playing a few minutes of basketball and all he had to do is get in shape for the season and stay reasonably in shape in the offseason. This guy balloons up so much that it's impossible for him to lose the weight. Consequently he get's hurt and is useless the rest of the season.

It's time to end this. We can't waste a roster spot on this guy anymore. Not when more deserving players could be taking his place.

Don't worry Marv, I'll give you a second vote, even though I really do believe James needs to be waived even before Dickau and Fred Jones!

Dickau and James have to go.

Jones and Nichols stay.
lol @ being BANNED by Martin since 11/07/10 (for asking if Mr. Earl had a point). Really, Martin? C'mon. This is the internet. I've seen much worse on this site. By Earl himself. Drop the hypocrisy.

Amen.

Hey marv, if you want to see big game again, just invite him to dinner. I don't think he is prepared to turn down a good meal.

if we could sign a deal like what the Bulls have with McDonalds JJ1 would be our most motivated player!

All the more reason to have a balanced roster. IF you got rid of one of the 30 guards that does the exact same thing and brought in a person taht can actually contribute at the center position we wouldn't be left with the necessity of keeping JJ because we don't have anyone else. We aren't winning a title, bite the bullet, cut the guy and let Morris give it a go at the back-up. What does it matter if he makes mistakes?
I just hope that people will like me

lol, we signed Jerome b/c "We needed a center" and then we went out and got an actual starting center.

Damn what a waste of talent. The guy has the tools but no motivation. It's a damn shame. At this point I guess I would be in favor of cutting James and see what Morris can give you at the backup center spot. I would expect to see Malik more this season as well. I don't believe that Lee can handle the backup center duties effectively. I rather move Randolph to center when Eddy can't go due to injuries and have Lee move to the starting PF spot. Depending on where Morris is at this point in development.

Isn't Randolf Morris our backup center? Or even if he isn't, do you think we can't get an adequate backup from the D-league? It won't be hard to replace what Jerome James gave us.... i mean if Curry got injured Jerome would still foul out in 15 minutes so... why hold onto the guy?

Until proven otherwise, JJ1 was the Knicks best post defender. Morris should be able to fill the void but JJ1 was effective when he was into the game. But he tired far too easy and begin to commit stupid fouls.

i think those stupid fouls were on purpose. last season he was used as a 'bruiser' because it was understood that he couldn't contribute more than 15 minutes/game. what is going on with cato? i still don't really understand his role on the team other than a mentor/sparing partner for curry.

You know, they should really just cut him, and refuse to pay him if he's out of shape.
It's highway robbery.

What could you possibly be basing this on? Thats like me saying until proven otherwise, eddy curry is the knicks best three point shooter. JJ is a waste, plain and simple. He adds nothing to this team.
