so this isn't a done deal?

You gotta love when we make a low budget player our primary target and can't close a deal. So once again we appear to get played except this time Duhon and his agent made us establish his market and are taking it elsewhere to capitalize.

i wonder if duhon's agent went into the office and said "i want browne sanders loot"

Pause No Homo Duhon I believe wears contacts or has these really light brown eyes so what may have been precluded the request was I SAY UGH telling Duhon he's easy on the eyes. I mean we all know I SAY UGH was there during negotiations hammering the numbers out.

It's a safe signing nothing more nothing less just like the draft pick. Except Duhon comes at far less risks and paves the way to Marbury posting up on the corner with a "Why Lie I Need A Beer Sign."

i have no idea what this means.

$11.5mil lawsuit awarded to Anucha I SAY UGH told Anucha she was easy on the eyes. Duhon has really light brown looking eyes almost looks like a girl to a point he got $11.5 to sign with us.

No matter what he/she is, if he plays for New york the big **** is going to get a piece of that.

So we make a fiscally responsible offer to a player that fits our needs, and because said player has hesitated, here comes good ol' Trueblue to ridicule the Knicks. Get over yourself.

If that's true than thank god. Duhon sucks.

It can work out to be good and then again it may not. What does this say about the perception of our franchise still? We have D-Cups in place, we represent the largest market in the NBA yet no one is beating down our doors unless it's strictly a financial thing. When will players want to come here because they want to be a Knick with no other strings attached? That's why I wasn't all that impressed with Mayo and Bayless saying they wanted to be a Knick. Yeah they mentioned that tradition BS but really it's always about getting paid and having the spotlight on them, having very little to do with THE KNICKS and it's a turn off to me as a fan. Players need to stop using us.

Of course this will change once we start becoming a winning franchise.

The only way a player would want to be a knick no strings attached would be if they were born in NY and humbly nutty like Ron Artest, But its allways about the money.

Lakers have championships and a market yet there aren't guys beating down the door to get in LA for less money either.

If we didn't have the stipulation of only trying to sign Duhon for 2 yrs then he would have signed already.

But I thought players could make up the money in NY with endorsements(even minor ones and having a market exposure to set the foundation for future deals?).
