I am predicting more Knicks/Lin fans than Miami fans at the game.

From last year.

Gotta love "home" road games.

J.R. was indeed fined $1.06 million by his China team (about 1/3 his total salary), for missing practice, lol. What a knuckle head.

Smith had US $1.06 million deducted from his salary over the course of the season for missing practices. Most of the missed practices came during pre-season while his team, Zhejiang Chouzhou, was getting ready for the start of the regular season. The sum was deducted from his salary, a final number that represented about one-third of his total salary.

resulting in much heat dunking in the face

Changed my mind on Amare, he is WOAT.

I don't understand how he barely gets off the floor anymore when he goes up. Don't they notice this in practice and see something is clearly wrong with him? He gets blocked or misses every single dunk he takes as long as he's not wide open. Sometimes he gets fouled, but it's a slight foul and shouldn't prevent him from finishing. I don't understand what could be wrong with him that isn't showing up on a medical exam.

I am guessing in his infinite wisdom, he gained upper body bulk and the Knicks trainers were powerless to stop him due to lockout.

If he did have 20 lbs more of muscle you'd think he'd at least be able to box out more effectively for boards.

Just by watching him I would think the issue is more medical. Something in the leg or a knee.

Gonna be a tough few years with Amare. We basically need to hope he can just regain his 15 foot jumper and turn into a pick and pop player.

There was a good amount of value in the act of doing something that summer rather than nothing. Perception is everything and Melo might not come without that first half-season with Amare. Then again, maybe the Knicks would have been able to hang tight and wait to sign/trade for actual good players like CP3 and Dwight.

Haralabos says Lee is a net negative due to defense. Not that Amare isn't...

He was in rehab for his back.

The problem was he was too dumb to hire professional trainers during the lockout.

Allan Houston looked pretty damn good in that Shooting Stars thing at AS weekend.

We're still paying him, might as well suit him up and see what he can do.
