Are there any guys that the Knicks could seek this for? Q and Jerome come to mind. I don't think Q would go for it and I don't think Jerome would qualify. It would be a nice way to get a guy off of the cap.

To get a disability retirement, you have to actually be physically unable to play, not just terrible. No one on the Knicks would qualify.

retirement due to medical circumstance has two benefits

1) insurance picks up most of the tab
2) salary is removed from the salary cap 2 years after the last active played game

Since Jerome has only 2 yrs left anyway there's not a big incentive to get this done.

Not even Allan got it. These guys make too much money to need something like that. This is a funny thread!

And here we got 47 million Americans without insurance at all.

What a concept!
I'll never trust this' team again.

i think he's pretty much qualified his entire career.
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.
