All I can say is if Melo's injury is worse than what the Knicks Machine is saying. Dolan will have a hell of a price to pay. Fans will be running to Brooklyn in droves. All you need is someone like Spike Lee to start the exotis. Dolan may be forced to sell then and only then.

Doubtful. As I said Melo is no fool. I suspect he opts out to sign a 5 yr deal. However, I wouldn't put it past him to bolt to another team if it's a better chance to win.

However it ends, I think it will be ugly

Most fans could care less what melo does, I'm positive folks wont complain much if he did leave.

Probably won't complain because the next starphucke is right on its heels

John Wall!

He had a better chance to win in Denver. He came here for the bright lights not for winning.

Papa bear has an impersonator. How cute.

Really, is this ****ing necessary?

If there are no problems---than you would say there are no problems. When there are problems--James Dolan tells you to say nothing. To me that sounds like different opinions are going on. As long as you have an MRI--you can get different people to look at it. Whatever it is, it's not good.

You would think our PR people would be capable of quelling all speculation but nope...it's like this franchise relishes being a media target. I've always thought the biggest attraction in New York is the Media and everything else comes after them....They Run New York

Hammy fluid in knee?

Nalod getting over a type two tear that kept him off the courts for 10 weeks now. No fluid for me.

I don't dispute it, but Im just not aware of it.

Maybe not but since the fluid is behind the knee it is possibel as a poster on knickerblogger speculated...

I hope this is true. I’m not an MD but I took enough anatomy to know there is a structure behind the knee called the popliteal fossa which is an empty space behind the knee which is bordered by the capsule of the knee joint and the hamstring muscles.

Fluid can collect there from a hamstring injury and have nothing to do with what is commonly thought of as the knee joint (within the capsule) itself. It is a little surprising they couldn’t differentiate this on the original MRI.

It implies a sore hamstring which certainly has a better intermediate and longer term prognosis than an articular injury. That is if the fluid was drained from the popliteal space and not the joint capsule itself.

What fan really knows. We will see as he plays and if surgery is needed in the offseason.
