PrintChicago Bulls at New York Knicks, Feb 17, 2010 7:30 PM EST
That's right, folks. They still have to play games while all this is going on. I have absolutely no idea who is on the Knicks, nor who is on the Bulls right now, so this should be interesting.
In all seriousness, we know Nate is sitting, and we've now heard that John Salmons is sitting. They tell me these facts are meaningful.
Come along and comment on the game, and go check out Blog-a-Bull as well. Go Knicks! Right?

I'm camping out here
Those trade threads are making me dizzy.
EST +5 hours is hard work sometimes...
Can you imagine how nuts it'll be
in the run up to 1 July & beyond?
EST +5 hours is hard work sometimes...
I wondered how this site worked
behind the scenes. Nice threads.

Gee Lack of D from Lee. What a surprise.
by christopherm on Feb 17, 2010 7:49 PM EST up reply actions
Love Lee. Our All-Star. But D is his weak point. No secret there

cymbal crash RT @SpearsNBAYahoo Robinson has been scratched from Knicks’ game due to flu-like symptoms. Yeah, he flew to LA.
meaning easier to accept from a knicks perspective he isn't really shining but i guess its all about potential
you that guy Darko had some of that hmmm
Why
are we getting giddens and house but no pick?
well, it's not done
but i have no idea. guess d’antoni likes house and giddens is worth an audition?
not my opinion, but i guess that would be the thought process. they lose nothing.
seems like he has the ability to shot, just puts a tad too much excitement into it. the rim is unfriendly to his shot.
i agree, but he seems affected by the trade rumors
CHUUUUUUUUUUUUUCH

TD isnt really a point guard
but Ill happily take him at the 1 over Du
anyone wondering why the darko cardinal deal…here’s why
The Knicks will look to waive recently acquired Brian Cardinal, and open up roster spots for what’s expected to be a multiple player deal -read Tracy McGrady .
Why did the Timberwolves take on Darko Milicic, there was a sizable cash component to the deal. Cardinal was apparently open to a contract buyout, where Darko was not.
reading fail…tough to feature him if they waive him immediately.
by Michael Gleich on Feb 17, 2010 8:32 PM EST up reply actions
well then decry the waive and say they should keep and feature him, lol.

Just had another coversation with a source I have NO doubt the McGrady deal is happening. Tomorrow is going to be a crazy day.
I've heard Hill and pick swap are no longer part of the deal, but that's very unconfirmed...
any truth to that?
i think the details are gonna wait til tomorrow
especially considering that donnie walsh isn’t at work right now.
for now, it’s gametime.
fuck that, when we trade him it'll feel like my birthday
CHUUUUUUUUUUUUUCH

i dont think i want to see robinson in a celtics uniform, at least not for so little
CHUUUUUUUUUUUUUCH
they didnt mention picks when i read it
CHUUUUUUUUUUUUUCH
by IB on Feb 17, 2010 8:52 PM EST up reply actions
right the latest only mentioned the players not picks.
by Michael Gleich on Feb 17, 2010 8:53 PM EST up reply actions
The Boston Celtics will be adding JR Giddens to their trade with the New York Knicks. The Celtics will get back Nate Robinson, that deal is expected to be sealed later tonight. Sources say Nate could be in uniform Thursday night as a Celtic.
that might be counting the picks, might not.
by Michael Gleich on Feb 17, 2010 8:54 PM EST up reply actions
we should at least get a 2nd rounder, but nate is worth a 1st
CHUUUUUUUUUUUUUCH

TNT’s David Aldridge is reporting that Chicago’s John Salmons could be headed to Milwaukee in a deal for Kurt Thomas and Francisco Elson. This would be a smart move for Milwaukee as Salmon’s lines up with their 2011 free agency plans and fills an immediate need in Milwaukee. Thomas and Elson are ending contracts.
The Knicks/Wolves trade- the Knicks will save $1.5 million in salary and tax payments.
which knowing dolan means he paid minnesota 3 mil to save 1.5.

That's a good feeling
I’ll be sleeping on that. Don’t lose this lead guys – see you in the recap.
EST +5 hours is hard work sometimes...
this is why salmons is in the hotel room
Bulls and Bucks have reached agreement to trade Chicago’s John Salmons for Kurt Thomas and Francisco Elson, a league source tells Y!
look up…i posted that about 20 min ago.
by Michael Gleich on Feb 17, 2010 9:06 PM EST up reply actions
they just didnt want him to miss out on playing in the garden since mil is coming in mon.

when was the last time Al passed up a shot…only John Wallace was worse about that.

say what you want about pringles but if the rumors are true at least he knows why his team chemistry suffers
harrington and hughes

lebron said in an interview that z was there with him since the beginning and he wants to win a championship with him
there are no cavs from the 02-03 on the roster anymore
CHUUUUUUUUUUUUUCH
watch him get bought out and go back there in 30 days…what a joke that rule is.
by Michael Gleich on Feb 17, 2010 9:16 PM EST up reply actions
i hope lebron feels the cavs organization is disloyal
CHUUUUUUUUUUUUUCH
by IB on Feb 17, 2010 9:20 PM EST up reply actions
no, what he knows is the org is only loyal to him and whatever he wants.
by Michael Gleich on Feb 17, 2010 9:21 PM EST up reply actions
and how can the knicks say anything about loyalty?
by Michael Gleich on Feb 17, 2010 9:22 PM EST up reply actions
guess they didnt want to go back to the well w the “flu” excuse.
by Michael Gleich on Feb 17, 2010 9:20 PM EST up reply actions
Apparently
Salmons for Kurt and Elson is official.
why is it that this is the first time u said anything about a wiz game mention?
by Michael Gleich on Feb 17, 2010 9:23 PM EST up reply actions
ok, i think we were just sort of laughing that they get rid of everyone and now suddenly all the bench guys can play.
by Michael Gleich on Feb 17, 2010 9:25 PM EST up reply actions
does anyone else notice a pattern, gallo is shooting good then harringotn comes in a forces a shot then gallo starts shooting poorly
CHUUUUUUUUUUUUUCH
if gallo shoots 8 free throws a game
you looking at a 25 per game type guy

it’s a progression, he needs to learn how to draw more fouls and not settle for the J as much.

by FreeBradshaw on Feb 17, 2010 9:28 PM EST up reply actions
i see more of a 30ppg type of game if he becomes a more consitent shooter
he drives pretty well, and most of the fouls he draws can be finished, also his shot looks to be more of a adjustment to the distance. when he has more experience, he might have that no-miss shot
CHUUUUUUUUUUUUUCH
by IB on Feb 17, 2010 9:32 PM EST up reply actions
i think he is just confused cause he is only used to going east west on the sideline along the bench.
by Michael Gleich on Feb 17, 2010 9:29 PM EST up reply actions
dont tell me
I just got in… Jeffries has play only 6 minutes… dont tell me he got hurt.
he sat after a few minutes
with a sore knee, so he’s probably fine. he might very well be cleaning out his locker.
so now that chicago got rid of salmons for expirings if miami doesnt get amare is d-wade going to go home to play w rose?
they really need to trade harrington, and give the ball to gallo, wil, and lee to win games
CHUUUUUUUUUUUUUCH
didnt they have the chance to trade al for tyrus early in the year?
by Michael Gleich on Feb 17, 2010 9:36 PM EST up reply actions
not saying tyrus is great by any means but he bring something the knicks need and getting rid of all would help will and gallo develop.
by Michael Gleich on Feb 17, 2010 9:37 PM EST up reply actions
did i read pargo and thomas for al maybe yesterday?
by Michael Gleich on Feb 17, 2010 9:39 PM EST up reply actions
seems wierd
d’antoni keeps preaching everything is about developing chandler and gallo, yet he wants tmac?
obviously
i understand that aspect, but theres been reports hes intrigued of having him as a player
well when ur talking about a guy who was a superstar the chip on the shoulder can be a great tool to use. mcgrady will at least care for the rest of the year as opposed to the effort last night.
by Michael Gleich on Feb 17, 2010 9:39 PM EST up reply actions
got to root for darko
this way when rubio wont go to minnesota we can tell them hey we gave you darko for nothing
KnicksTweets
check that last RT…Rockets tried to recruit Kings in T-Mac deal, but Salmons deal to Bucks likely squashed it.
sorry, the link below is to that tweet.
by Michael Gleich on Feb 17, 2010 9:43 PM EST up reply actions
hmmm
no mention of hill as the demands in that story
could mean that donnie has conceeded he would have to give hill.
by Michael Gleich on Feb 17, 2010 9:45 PM EST up reply actions
dude
i cant believe we gave up our 2nd best player
??
Danilo, Lee, and Chandler are all still here, so can’t imagine who you’re talking about being 2nd best player.
im being sarcastic
some bafoon was calling nate 2nd best before
aiyyo
trade thread is there >> http://www.postingandtoasting.com/2010/2/17/1314628/breaking-nate-to-celtics-details
game thread is here!
understandable
i just commented that same thing on the other thread by accident, so i feel your pain.
Here we go I hope it's a good finish
Damn we just have nobody to guard Rose
yea, what is this
November? Hopefully we can finish the comeback-after-blowing-the-big-lead
I'm sorry I know this is the game thread but this is pritty funny
sportsguy33
Wiz-Cleve-LAC trade analyzed in Jersey Shore speak: “Grunfeld went to the bathroom and Ferry committed the robbery.”
wow, this is a great game. the fans want it.
Ill Will the Silent Still Thrill is making it happen down the stretch.
The knicks have no interior defense what so ever.
pretty funny
their best stopper inside this season has been charges taken by jj
dantoni
he should let chandler get expierince with the ball in his hands in this type of situation
that forearm's
Got to be bothering him. Those shots was wack. Liked the interaction between Gallo and Lee though.
yea but they shouldve tried to make the two when they were under the basket
CHUUUUUUUUUUUUUCH
by IB on Feb 17, 2010 9:58 PM EST up reply actions
Wilson should of made the 3
he is perfect beyond the 3 point line
by KnickerBocker on Feb 17, 2010 9:59 PM EST up reply actions
yea but that pass by david was horrendous at best
CHUUUUUUUUUUUUUCH
by IB on Feb 17, 2010 9:59 PM EST up reply actions
Call Larry Johnson. What’s he doing now a days?
by xcdudesquad on Feb 17, 2010 10:01 PM EST up reply actions
Aww man if we got a 4 point play that would have been so ironic yet so damn epic
by xcdudesquad on Feb 17, 2010 10:02 PM EST up reply actions
oh well
thanks for commenting everybody. you guys have been awesome all day.
more excitement tomorrow!
Well that's the last game for this group of knicks tomorrow it will be dismantled
lets have a little moment of silence lol jp
tough one
looked good with that lineup for a while. We need someone who can protect the rim more than a pg i think. Hill isn’t ready, and JJ is not worht mentioning
