He was pretty good in college, he could be our backup 2, although I don't know where he might fit on the roster. We do need to shuffle the roster a little at some point, because we have redundant players, but he would be cheap and could fill a paxson/hoiberg role for us.

BTW, forget about hoiberg, he had heart surgery, and I think the new CBA says something about having to questionable hearts on a team. Thats why we had to trade Tim Thomas for E.C.

A good story on Forte. Check out the episode with Big Game on the third page.

Big game got soapy with him.

I had seen Joe in college a few times at the dean dome. He made it look so easy.

The guy is not a point, so we really don't need his position.

This guy and Omar Cook are two peas in a pod!

Good post, Knight. That was a solid writeup on Forte.
If he gets himself in game shape and excels in the NBDL without any drama this season, I'm sure he'll catch Isiah's eye.

LOL @ the Big Game incident! Cats are gonna have jokes for days on that one...
Another season, and more adversity to persevere through. We will get the job done, even BETTER than last year. GO KNICKS!

Forte worked out at UNC this summer while I was here and he lived in the same apartments as me. The first weekend I was there he got caught smoking weed with some football players. Later on in the summer, he was fooling around in the gym and had a slam dunk contest with Jesse Holley (bench player for the past two years on UNC's bball squad and a wideout for the football team). Forte had the gym in awe and threw down some insane stuff -- that pretty much sums him up. He's a great talent with a bad attitude. I'd stay away from him -- we don't need the distractions and we don't need him hanging out with our young guys.
