Think about it - 20 players competing for roster spots.
You kind of expect to see the effort... Right?
But instead we see this...
The only logical reason for this - players DO NOT WANT TO MAKE THE KNICKS 15
If they are cut - they get vacation and all money...
If they traded they are going away from this mess (like happy Channing did)
Plain and simple...

arkrud - excellent analysis

Are you measuring "effort" or "uncertainty" with 20 guys not competing for spots?

Frankly, its actually a brilliant thought. Why play this year if you can just get cut and paid anyway? Isiah's over a barrel.

Nixluva is posting triangle screen grabs, even when nobody asks - Fishmike. LOL So are we going to reference that thread like the bible now? "The thread of Wroten Page 14 post 9" - EnySpree

arkrud - if the players really wanted to make a point, why not at home vs Maccabi?

or is Maccabi simply that bad an international team?
