Why couldn't we secret workout Jordan Hill?
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.

The NBA fined Dallas $150,000 and suspended Don Nelson and Donn Nelson for
the first 2 games of the regular season
for contact with players who were
ineligible for the NBA draft. The Nelsons attended private workouts in
Yugoslavia in June.


5/28/02
The NBA fined Cleveland $150,000 and suspended coach John Lucas for the
first 2 games of next season
for including high school junior LeBron James
in a voluntary team workout. NBA rules prohibit teams from having contact
with players not yet eligible for the NBA draft.


7/7/00
The NBA fined Dallas and Milwaukee $50,000 each for violating league rules
governing the tryouts of draft prospects. League rules prohibit having 4
draft prospects on the court at the same time and having draft prospects
compete against veterans. [Dallas was fined for using a draft prospect in
a 5-on-5 scrimmage.]


Let's hope we can suspend Isiah from ever having a position with the Knicks.

somehow I missed this...

anyway, if all that happens is Jimmy Dolan loses some of his dad's money and Isiah is blacklisted from the Knicks, then this becomes a feel-good story
