pretty much how I am feeling.

This wasn't about marching towards a championship team so much as Dolan just wanting to ****-block NJ.

And it seems like Walsh is out, which is disgusting.

hollow is the perfect word. i should be happy my knicks is getting another top 10 player but the whole thing just numbed me to ****.

Co-sign on the "hollow" feeling.

I was originally saying to friends I had "mixed" feelings but to be more accurate it's almost like a weird lack of feeling while people around me are changing their profile pics to Carmelo with "YIPPEE!" status messages.

I told Andrew last night, Moz was my tipping point.

I was pretty shocked when they picked up Mosguv, but I bet there is more to the story.

I can almost guarantee you that us having to give up Mosguv was part of a "bargaining down" process by the Knicks after Denver saw that Dolan was involved and was willing to give up almost anything to get Anthony. Dolan blinked and the Nuggets went for the jugular. For the time being I will assume that Walsh, or some other cooler head got involved and was able to pull Fields from the deal.
