Give it up TMS...The 3rd year was obviously mutual, he wasn't going to retire and MoT is a better option off the bench.
It's time to admit you didn't have any idea what you were griping about and now you are grasping for something you can be mad about, when in all actuality, the knicks actually are on the verge of making a series of the smartest moves in recent memory, possibly saving the team near $80 million AND obtaining either a trade exception OR we have a 3 point shooting marksmen off the bench in Houston.
But, it wasn't the end of the world, the garden isn't going to explode, there aren't going to be more STUPID moves AND dropping shandon wasn't the smart thing to do.
Give it up, your beginning to embarrass yourself.
Now it's time for the naysaying end of the world anti zeke's to start name calling (posting gay robots) and making stupid statements (you've got you're head up isiah's ass) and giving up the argument to be dicks until they can find something else to complain about for no reason without any facts.
While it was an exhilirating (spelled wrong I know) day of back and forths, as the facts slowly come out day after day, I think it's time to stop being a ...
There, I feel better...OK Isles, TMS, sim, boobs, wait, boobs and I are seeing eye to eye these days, so not boobs, but definitely fish, he was pulling out GM 101 and explaining it like it was, let me have it with the personal assaults...I'm going to bed now, so I won't be able to read them anyway.

All you guys had to do is remain calm and wait for the facts...or atleast hope for the best.
it's a new era fellas, live with it. The knicks are on their way back to the championship game (not necessarily a trophy, but the game nonetheless).

"Williams added that he would not have retired had the amnesty clause not been used"
Just like some of us suspected.
has the 3rd remaining year left on JYD's deal been proven to be a mutual option rather than as a team option as was originally thought? if not, then it still makes more sense to waive Shandon or Mo Taylor & reap more savings, whether JYD were to retire or not...where is the verified source that proves JYD's contract has a 3rd mutual option year? anyone know?
personally i would have rather had JYD rehabbing on the Knick's roster than having Mo Taylor taking up space & minutes away from Mike Sweetney...this is Sweetney's year to make it or break it in my eyes, & judging from Channing Frye's performance in the summer leagues, it looks like he'd be better suited to play the PF as well...so that creates an even bigger glut at the PF spot...JYD can play the SF as well so i don't see how waiving him makes the most sense until that 3rd year question is definitively answered.
all kool aid all the time.
