It is safe to say that Frédéric Weis is never coming to New York to play for the Knicks.

"No, I am too scared to go back," Weis, a center from France, said somberly last week. "People hate me there."

Weis spoke by telephone from practice in Bilbao, Spain, where he is averaging 2.8 points and 2.1 rebounds for Lagun Aro in the Spanish league. It is his fourth team in five years since the Knicks chose him with the No. 15 pick of the 1999 draft.

Other than two summer-league appearances, Weis has not worn a Knicks uniform.

Freddy, we don't hate you man. You just suck. Its not your fault you were drafted 14th. Im sure your a fine dude, and your making some decent bucks for a scrub, and we wish you a long and prosperous life!

Im sure if yo wanted to you could have made the team, but its cool doing what your doing.

In a way some of us are happy that we picked you instead fo Artest because right about now we would be in some kind of trouble with that ticking time bomb.

Weis.......next time put your hands up when a guy is coming at you with that much speed and force. Obviously he gonna try to do something. If you fouled him instead of ducking you would have your pride right now.

NY don't hate anybody not named Bush or Gulianni.

Can I add Layden and Pedro to that list?
