did everyone see Roger Mason's tweet yesterday? it seems like he was trying to directly message someone or text them and accidentally put it on his public twitter page, a la Anthony Weiner. Seems promising for a season...

Mason: Not The Next Anthony Weiner?
September 7th, 2011 by Mike Kurylo | Comments | Permalink |

Today NBA Player Union Representative, and part time Knick-guard, Roger Mason Jr. tweeted:

Looking like a season. How u

A few minutes later he followed that up with:

Someone just hacked my account. I did not say its looking like a season!

and

I’m sitting here wondering why my phone is ringing off the hook and I look on twitter and see that message. SMH! I wish that were the case

So either one of two things happened. Option 1: Mason is telling the truth. One of the world’s great hackers decided of all people to target Roger Mason’s twitter account. Not Kobe Bryant, perhaps the most famous of all NBA players world wide, not LeBron James, the greatest player on the planet, and not Chris Bosh, who plays with LeBron. But Roger Mason Jr., who saw 319 minutes of court time last year. And they went after his twitter account, and not his email or banking account. Once gaining such a valuable possession, they decided to tweet something that appeared to be a private message to another NBA player which was accidental revealed to the public.

In fact if I can take Option 1 even further, it’s possible that this person was an owner hoping to weaken the players’ leveraging power by making it appear that one of their members was optimistic about reaching a common ground. Or even more diabolically, it was the commissioner’s office who unleashed such a Machiavellian scheme.

Either that or Option 2: I and 25,000 other people who follow Mason have an inside scoop that the players and the owners are making headway on an agreement and one of the player representatives thinks that a season is likely to occur.

That said, I’m fine without a full investigation into Mason’s Twitter account.

either way, this is Roger Mason's most important moment as a Knick.

Maybe this boosts his trade value and we get CP3 after all...

That probably depends on how good a deal the players get. Gotta appreciate Mase's sacrifice tho. His career probably would've been better served if looked for a team in China or Europe to sign with. But he's hanging tough and working to get a deal done.

We can now name him Mason Senior
