Moral of the story? Organizations lie and players need to look out for their best interests. I hope this also sheds a light on how well the Knicks treated Austin Rivers, even though he is a bum The Knicks are one of the few trustworthy orgs out there.

Redick sounds like a baby. Stan Van Gundy said it best....

"[JJ] had some things that he wanted to happen. But I think Griff cared very much about what JJ wanted, but he has a responsibility to Gayle Benson and to the organization that supersedes all of that," Van Gundy said.

Listen, the one thing with me -- and I think I've been consistent about this throughout my career -- is you'll hear people say it from time to time that it's a business; well, it is. Players are going to want to do what's best for them, and they have every damn right to do that, and organizations have every damn right to do what's best for their organization. I have problems when it gets skewed that it's a business from my end, but you should not be a business on your end. That's not right. It's a business on both ends of it.

As for Rivers....Its obvious that NO ONE wants Rivers (not even his dad) which is why he was bought out.

“Your wife doesn’t even respect your bitch ass,” Durant wrote.

According to the screenshots, the confrontation began when Rapaport criticized Durant’s post-game interview with TNT analyst Charles Barkley after Brooklyn’s season-opening victory over the Golden State Warriors in December.

Rapaport tweeted at the time: “KD seemed deeply in his feelings with the (TNT) crew after the game. DAMNIT he’s super sensitive about everything. Don’t do the interview.”

Durant responded by calling Rapaport a “bitch”, a “*****”, a “pale pasty cum guzzling bitch” and a “piece of ****”, followed by a series of insults invoking the actor’s wife.

Yikes.

Damn. I knew KD is sensitive but this dude got some problems.

I'm not saying Maledon is going to be Tony Parker mkII, just that in his rookie season he's had one 24 points and one 33 points game. We're yet to be treated to such by Frank after 4 seasons in the league, and I doubt we ever will.
