I kind of wondering why JJ3 was brought in. It was just for cash, but I thought he was going to Europe. Maybe his agent told the Knicks that he would without asking too.

Isiah really jerked Walker Russell Jr. around. That's not right.

Well then why did people make a big deal when we traded Trevor Ariza?

There's value in those second round picks. No need to just waste them -- especially when you are wasting them in a continued effort to justify giving a max MLE contract to a waste of space like Jerome James.

So we will get to see nichols kill the knicks with feeds from lebron all damn day... Stupid move, if we knew cleveland wanted this kid, I would have held him and offer him to cleveland for some kind of future pick.. Jerome james is useless, dolan must have closed the cash register and is about to fire Isiah, becuase I see no reason to keep james around and not keep this kid.... wow..

cleveland expressed interest and they need a big guard who can shoot. This is a no brainer, and if you were nichols, and had the chance to play with lebron and a good organization in cleveland, you hop on the next plane.

I agree with everything except the bolded part. The Zekester's got Little Jimmy wrapped around his finger, IMHO.

Hey, Walker Russell, Jr. is BIG news.

Why did the Knicks put his first name in the news release, and the last names of the other 2 guys? Strange.

Isiah just threw away 2 2nd rd picks by waiving Nichols. Knock Nichols' game all you want but you can't possibly defend Isiah throwing away assets like that.

It's absolutely insane how Isiah mismanages assets the way he does.
