poor guy, does he really have to fly around and around to go as the #1 journey man of all time just to continue to get traded to pass medical exams to get traded again

If he is waived, I hope he reunited with Phil Jackson, Fisher, and The Triangle to teach our young guys and DEFENSE, playing OFF THE BALL, as he is a locker room/tough guy, that has that New York grit/fight in him, under dog talent

He would help with CA's weakness's on defense despite his age, right now Memphis has him


1- from Knick's training/summer camp
2- Clippers
3- New York
4- Philly
5- GS
6- Sun's
7- Orlando
8- Lakers
9- Clippers

*1m guaranteed out of about 3.5m*
From Clippers, Hornets, OKC, Memphis


He has been part of many winning teams during his Journey and a 3 and D type of talent

He wasn't very good in the play offs but he was also always defending the opponents best OFF PLAYER as well
And it his age I think it is very impressive and he has qualities that I feel could help his become a contender both on and off the court that he could mentor/provide for our roster
Even guaranteeing him a future development coach job, bringing out the toughness/DEFENSE/ability to play both on and off the ball, grabbing rebounds, doing dirty work which is NEEDED for EVERY CONTENDING TEAM


Clippers had no depth and he is old but he has done well for his journey and not much respect for what he has done
If he wants to join a contender and continue to play, I am sure a contender would have interest in him

His experience, 3 and D, toughenss, rebounds, cutting, help DEFENSE, 1v1 DEFENSE, FIGHT is exaclty what NYK's need to mold our young talnets such as Thanasis along with Battier
However, with our needs of learning the TRIANGLE and executing, teaching/mentor our young guys and role players/defense, I would guarantee him a job AFTER basketball that he could help us mold talents with


We do not have a Jordan but we do not have a Pippen along with other Triangle HOF's

Giannes and Battum are 2 players that I feel resemble today's Pippen the most, outside of LBJ which has Pippen/Jordan/Magic Johnson and Karl Malone in him
We need a versatile/skilled/defensive duo somehow and CA isn't part of it, it just isn't his game
