Around SBN: Shaq As Orlando Magic General Manager? Don't Bet On It

Don't shoot the messenger....... w/ a source


But what i have recently heard is that Dolan is going to fire D'antoni early next week after the Super Bowl. From what i heard its so it does not take away from what the Giants are doing. (If true a classy respectful move towards the Giants, not so much D'antoni) Now I'm not saying this is whats going to happen , what i want to happen or anything like that but just what i heard and i wanted to share and see if anyone has heard anything similar. Just throwing it out there so no one get all worked up towards me.

I recently heard (from a friend of a friend) that Jared Jeffries and Renaldo Balkman are going to fuse their DNA together into an unstoppable basketball juggernaut

But the cloning process is going to go horribly wrong and they’ll be left with a mutated midget small forward. They will then form a powerful frontcourt off the bench known as 2 and a half men

I heard that next week

Dolan is going to fire Donnie Walsh… sending first confusion, then just laughter though the halls of MSG.

Nobody is going to bother telling him that Donnie is no longer the GM. They will just go along with it.

I think it was Bobby V who said: "You are never as good as you are when you are at your best, and you are not as bad as when you are at your worst."

i have not heard this

and i find your waste of a fanpost to be offensive to the general aptitude of the posting and toasting community.

however, and unfortunately, i think d’antoni will be fired soon.

He was just stating what he read in the Post

You guys need to chill out. Yeah, it’s probably a false rumor and yeah, he could’ve copied a source, but come on. Be happy!

If they play as well against Boston

as they did against Chicago I doubt that D’Antoni will get canned, Also, I do not find this post as offensive as some of you do,

Until recently, I spent most of my sbnation time on a different site, where fanposts are held to a much higher standard

So I guess that I still carry that mentality into all fanposts I read. Also, says with a source now, but don’t see one except Seth’s comment

well

then I looked at a comment below, my b.

There may be some truth to the rumor

but personally, I think dantoni will keep his job at least for the whole season….

You just got Tysoned!!!!!!

7 paragraphs in. Even if it ends up being false, here’s “proof” and a “source”.. btw everyone this is posting and toasting not the New York Times. You can post whatever you want. I was just asking if anyone else heard it.

by Bockas r back on Feb 3, 2012 9:09 AM EST reply actions  

It's cool

But it’s worth it to track down the original source and actually give it a close read before you post stuff regarding it. And link to something, of course. It’s not the Times, but there’s no reason we can’t cite stuff and give things a thorough read before repeating them.

by Seth on Feb 3, 2012 10:06 AM EST up reply actions  

Heard

it through a friend, didn’t read it anywhere. Then after I found this.

by Bockas r back on Feb 3, 2012 2:23 PM EST up reply actions  

Like I said, that's cool

But it might be worth your time to do a little research and put something coherent together before you broadcast something like this lest you misrepresent the rumor.

by Seth on Feb 3, 2012 7:45 PM EST up reply actions  

to be fair
btw everyone this is posting and toasting not the New York Times.

P&T is generally a better source for knicks news then the NYT.

I think it was Bobby V who said: "You are never as good as you are when you are at your best, and you are not as bad as when you are at your worst."

This is actually the entirety of where I go for Knicks’ news.

by superturboultra on Feb 3, 2012 11:34 AM EST up reply actions  

the times has better editorials

than the posting and toasting fanpost section.

every time. guaranteed.

I don’t like his twitter comments either, but at least he responds personally to all my criticisms. The fact that an entertainment giant like Harvey Araton takes time out of his busy day to respond to me makes me like him at least a little bit!

I wouldn't say everytime

there have been some well though out posts that have proper spelling, formatting and grammar. They are just too infrequent compared to the 5 liners, with hard to read paragraphs and (usually) terrible trade ideas

yea i agree

completely. its just… in this thread… i mean, come on. this is just such a lame post.

but, trust me, i love reading some of the posts the fine folks produce around here. but for every interesting post there are 15 full of (or just barely eking out) pointless drivel.

dont be angry.

im not that angry, and neither is most of the people here.
this is how nonsense or stuff in that genre of posting is dealt with.

theirs a good chance that when ur gonna post some breaking news or rumor, Seh already has done it, or knows about it and decided not to post it due to the fact it was just not worth reading

lmao @ "w/ a source" in the title

….and then no source. Dolan is unpredictable and unrational, but he’s not smart enough to cook something like this up. And even if he did it today, the 24/7 superbowl coverage all over TV and the radio would still smother it out. Until the Giants are done playing, the Knicks are on the back burner anyway. Hell, the Jets talk is still alive and well on ESPN 1050.

Outside of me and this blog, the Knicks are an after thought right now, especially because they kind of suck and they lose more than they win on national TV.
