Good evening! After a long time traveling, the Knicks are home. They're playing the Kings, which means we have to hear this painfully forced storyline about Rajon Rondo being a free agent possibility ... and also means we have to watch the Knicks play the Kings, which didn't go so hot. This is the Teams In Disarray Bowl. I think they're in way worse shape and Knicksfolk are fussing mostly over short-term issues but whatever, I am biased.
Forget all that. There is great news. Less than three months since someone shot him in the knee, and after a brief and illness-stunted visit to the D-League, Cleanthony Early is BACK:
Cleanthony Early has been recalled from the Westchester Knicks and activated for tonight's game vs. @SacramentoKings

Awesome. So glad to have him back, and I hope he gets at least a little chance to spin if that's what he desires.There may be some opportunities with a short staff:
For tonight's game vs. @SacramentoKings : Seraphin (sore left foot) & Thomas are unavailable. Anthony is a game-time decision.

Rambis says Arron Afflalo will start if Anthony can't play. #NYKvsSAC

Melo is still up in the air because of the migraine symptoms that limited him to 40 minutes of Rambis Time Saturday night.
Speaking of Rambis:
Rambis said he wants to maintain "a winning mindset" and hates operating in scenario which isn't about trying to win games....

Basically what Rambis is saying is he's not really interested in focusing on development and evaluation of young players vs trying to win.

Still foolish!
