I don't think JO is an idiot.
Only idiot will try to go and play for Knicks.
Money are not everything.
Players want to win and have normal live without all the crap which is flooded Knicksland

I guess it makes us all idiots for rooting for our team

Since when did players not want to come to NY if the money is right? Why wouldn't JO want to play here. We have talent and a Coach he already likes. People are so quick to bash the team that they don't even think. Isiah is a players coach, what "crap" is JO really going to have to face. Most of the Knick players loved playing for Isiah. Even Malik Rose had good things to say, as you can read in my sig.

He's already said he'd like to come here so his point of view isn't the issue. All that matters is whether acquiring him is the best move for this team or not. How would JO and Curry work out together? What would we have to give up? Can JO stay healthy? If Isiah feels that he has acceptable answers to those questions, then he'll try to make that deal happen. In the end we all just want to see this team WIN, so we'll hope for the best, if he does add JO.

what "crap"? - exuses, NY media, players not coming to play the game but show up their "special" skilles, lies, made up injuries and hiding real injuries, players begging for minutes, playing time awarded based on salary and personal relationsheeps/agendas, name it...

OK and JO wants to be traded cuz things were so good in Indy? Look at the circus they've had and what we have right now looks relatively calm. None of the things you listed are really big issues. Our problems have mostly been about wins and losses, which i'm sure he feels he can help to do something about that. We have a good group of young guys with good personalities and they get along. We don't currently have any internal issues. Our GM and Coach are the same guy, so there are no conflicts there. I just think you're being overly negative about the state of this team.

What you can expect after last 10 years?
GM and Coach is same guy - is this good?
And talking about JO - can you tell me if nay one star or even solid player joined Knicks for last 8-10 years?
Mostly guys like Marbs, Steve, Eddy, etc. was using NY like last resort after nobody in the NBA was willing to deal with them and their contracts.
