I thought they were pushing the Garbage Man to retire for a medical exception?
So much for that theory! |

WOOOHOOOOOOO! Jerome is gonna now opt out! BRILLIANT move Mike D!
Knicks' James yearns for a chance to get on court BY ALAN HAHN | alan.hahn@newsday.com December 1, 2008 As exiled guard Stephon Marbury attempts to negotiate his basketball freedom in a meeting today with Knicks president Donnie Walsh, another player who has been similarly buried by the new regime quietly bides his time with far less attention. Jerome James knows what he is in the eyes of Knicks fans. He also knows his days are numbered. But all he wants is a few spare minutes before he goes. Seconds, even. Just to shake a little of that reputation as the 7-1, nearly 320-pound center who took a $30-million midlevel exception contract from Isiah Thomas and then treated conditioning as a leisure sport. "I can't leave New York without at least making my stamp and letting New York know I wasn't here taking money," James said. "That's not me. I've always had a passion for basketball and unfortunately, due to injuries, I wasn't able to show 'em that side of me. I want to show them that side and then I'll get my -- out of here. I'll leave." Along with Marbury, James is the other player on the Knicks' roster who has yet to see a single tick of playing time by the decision of coach Mike D'Antoni. Hahn ~You can't run from who you are.~
