The most encouraging development for the Knicks today may have been the presence of William Wesley, a mover and shaker around the NBA who has friends in high places including Michael Jordan and Larry Brown.

Wesley, who attended today’s practice at Skidmore College, has also known Allan Houston and his father, Wade Houston, for more than 20 years and has been pals with several current and former Knicks including Rick Brunson, who is now an assistant coach at the University of Virginia.

Wesley is also close friends with a guy named LeBron James. You may have heard that LeBron will be a free agent in two years and that the Knicks are trying to clear cap space for the summer of 2010.

In recent days, Cavs owner Dan Gilbert called it an “insult” to speculate that James may leave. On Monday, LeBron reiterated that he’s never said he doesn’t enjoy playing for the Cavs.

But when you see Wesley talking to Donnie Walsh you’ve got to the believe that the Knicks could be players in the LeBron sweepstakes, especially now that the Nets plan to move to Brooklyn is on hold because of financial reasons.

That's him with LBJ.

Yeah, and my cousin's god-brother's roommate shook Kobe's hand once, AND ALSO attended a Knicks game last year. I LIKE OUR CHANCES!!!

Faux-hawk please!

LOL...whats funny is that no one know what he does, to me the brother just got crazy game.."IF A NICKLE BAG GETS SOLD IN THE PARK IN RUSSIA, I WANT IN"

Yeah, you might want to do your research first before chalking this one up to bull****. You can have all the cap room you want. Nothing's going down without Worldwide Wes and not just with LeBron. Period.

Dont mind GKF, he's quick to shoot down almost anything.

The hell are you talking about? I'm the one who posted this because I found it interesting.

Who is this guy and why does he have such an impact

I'm not sure if i have the same guy in mind, but SI online did a nine page article about some guy who was connected with everybody and everybody in the NBA. No one knows who he is really or what he does, but everyone seeks his input on basketball matters. Even though SI couldn't get an answer from anyone on what he does or what his impact was, his importance was obvious enough to warrant a nine page article.
