Lopez thinks he's a fire-starter. He just winds up annoying. Even Vandermeer jumps him from time to time for being jerk-ish.
2nd greatest Rocket -- he says its between Moses Malone and ... Charles Barkley? Morey must really have a thing for short and stout frontcourt players.
- he says it's frustrating that some teams are holding on to players for no reason; i believe he's speaking of kaman. - there's obviously animosity between him/les vs stern (deuche) - with the west being so wide open, i don't think he's going to trade any of our key contributors like he did with shane/brooks last year. that is unless we clearly win in the trade. - he anticipates the NY pick to still be decent.
Spoiler "quite a few guys that can handle the ball and bring it up." My guess that meant don't expect to necessarily see Flynn at PG.
Has Morris been recalled from the D-League? If Lee plays backup PG that would open up minutes for him.
With Lin's emergence, Knicks games added in Asia Posted Feb 9 2012 5:11PM - Updated Feb 9 2012 6:09PM NEW YORK (AP) -- Jeremy Lin is making the Knicks must-see TV in Asia. The NBA says Thursday its Asian TV partners have added Knicks games to their broadcast schedules following the emergence of Lin, the first American-born NBA player of Chinese or Taiwanese descent. Sina in China will show Friday's game against the Lakers, while stations in Taiwan will televise Knicks games this month against Toronto, Sacramento, New Orleans, New Jersey and Atlanta. ESPN Philippines also added the Feb. 17 Hornets game in New York. Lin, an undrafted guard from Harvard, has led the Knicks to three straight wins, scoring more than 20 points in each game. Ironically, his performances are missed by many in New York. A dispute between Time Warner Cable and MSG Network is keeping the Knicks off that system. MSG said its ratings are up 36 percent over its season average in the two games since Lin moved into the starting lineup on Monday.
In addition to paying them millions Now a GM's job is to form interpersonal relationships. Does he need to wash their jocks and find their whores too? This is just BS. It's too much to ask todays athletes to accept being traded to a team they dont want to be traded too. LOL

completely agree that mr. bang. got snubbed from the rookie all star game. I checked last night, and he'd completely dropped from nba.com's top 10 rookies. I guess there is no room for being awesome and a total stud on defense in today's game.
More like "no room for being a Rocket in Stern's NBA" with a side dish of "You got drafted in the second round? OLOLOLOL"
Its interesting that McHale called Morey after the Minnesota loss to vent and go over basketball strategy. I'm guessing Adelman and Morey did not have that sort of relationship.
I kinda got the same feeling at the end of his tenure. It seemed like he was resentful of Morey and Les, and he felt like they didn't know what it took to win games.
I'd say he's only really stepped up to another level in the last couple of weeks. Some weeks there was this short window where his defense seemed to fall off. It could have been tiredness or the rookie wall but he's totally left that behind. He looks like a clutch 4Q defender now.
