With all due respect, "Berman reporting....", is an oxymoron most Knick fans have learned to tune out over the years.
TKF on Melo ::....he is a punk, a jerk, a self absorbed out of shape, self aggrandizing, unprofessional, volume chucking coach killing playoff loser!!

True when it comes to theories and trade reports. But if he's reporting Saturday then I'm pretty sure it'll be soon.

Shump back at practice full on tomorrow. He was at shoot around today and did not look hobbled at all. Should play Saturday or sooner according to Berman, Hahn, etc....

Honestly, I think we miss this kid. He provides good defense and injury. If he can avoid the urge to jack up shots, he will be a positive.

I would have agreed previously, but Berman is the only one breaking stories on the Knicks beat these days. He's the only one who actually gives news updates. The national media broke the Tyson Chandler signing before any NY beatwriter.

"...(the Knicks) will need Stoudemire and Anthony to play like All-Stars at the same time. If it doesn't happen this season, the Knicks will likely next summer try to trade Stoudemire for a prime point guard or shooting guard if his uninsured contract allows."

- Marc Berman, who would be much better if he left the rumors for TMZ.

I haven't seen a Marbles update in what seems like weeks... Berbury's off his game.

Shump is supposedly ahead of schedule so that is good. i wouldn't rush it because we will need him off teh bench or starting. Even amare i would sit him until he is healthy. These next few games aren't tough just as long as we do what we did against the kings

Shumpert is already about to practice? Great news. We need all the backcourt help that we can get, and the sooner we get Shump involved and contributing, the better off this team will be.

Pretty soon, the Knicks can feature Shump and Davis in the backcourt, with the TD/Fields combo to back them up.

Another season, and more adversity to persevere through. We will get the job done, even BETTER than last year. GO KNICKS!

I'm thrilled that he's close but I agree not to rush him back.
Let's make sure that he's 100% before he returns.

D'Antoni did not rule out Iman Shumpert for Wednesday if everything goes well at practice tomorrow. Stoudemire out.

Berman to MDA: Do you think Shump could play Wednesday? Or are you willing to absolutely rule him out for the game?
MDA: I have no update.
Berman to world: BREAKING NEWS, SHUMP POSSIBLE FOR GAME WEDNESDAY. MDA won't rule it out.
