He starts his article "The Knicks suffered a
devastating blow on Tuesday when the club announced that J.R. Smith could miss four months after having patellar tendon surgery and an arthroscopy"
a DEVASTATING blow! he may not miss ANY time! hey frank, how many games do the Knicks have schedule in July, August, September, and October? Oh, thats right, ZERO!
I usually enjoy the Ice Man's take, but sometimes he gets so dramatic and acts like a cry-baby. he had a meltdown yesterday on Twitter, saying the Knicks were headed in the wrong direction because JR had surgery and they got Artest. what a loser.
for the money they paid, Artest was by far the best option. he has championship experience, a defensive pedigree, and for all his whacky statements and alleged "craziness" is a guy that pretty much all teammates absolutely love (kobe and pau were both devastated that he got amnestied).
also, regarding the JR injury, it is sort of silly to think the Knicks "didn't know" about this - JR apparently was dealing with knee issues all last year. he is 27 years old and has played over 74 games per season in his last 5 full seasons. i'm really not worried. he got about the going rate for players with his skill set (Redick & Korver are both shooters, Monta Ellis got slightly more), and the 4 year contract corresponds to his age 28-29-30-31 seasons, so we get the end of his prime at a pretty reasonable deal. whatever.
Frankie the Drama Queen is wrong - Artest was a great acquisition, and the JR injury is really no big deal. even if he misses regular season time, we can just throw Hardaway Junior into the fire and see what he's got.
Sounds like the article was "Devastating" to you.
All his tweets are either negative towards the Knicks or bashing Marc Berman. He's sad.
Absolutely
The Knicks are all drama, all the time. even in the middle of July.
Isola needs a nap.
Where is his insight on CJ Leslie?
The one good thing about Isola is that he gets back to you if you email him or engage him on twitter. His reporting at this point is suspect.
Drama sells papers and gets clicks, right?
Add it to the list with hype.

good comic relief, nothing more.

Thats not true Ive seen him tweet positives many times
NAH Isola is not a very balanced guy. He just has a nasty edge to him when it comes to the Knicks. My observation is that he's very anti Dolan and the Knicks brass. I think he has good reason not to like them and how they do business, but he lets that color his reporting and almost every comment has a snarky and nasty edge to it.

Off topic. Why aren't you participating in the Alba Draft?

I think he is quite ANTI Knick's and ANTI Dolan, strictly a negative troll, bashing towards the franchise, players, and all moves Knick's make
We do make many mistakes and bad moves but his tone/writing style is very disrespectful like some of the POSTERS/TROLL's we have here
I never seen him have anything positive to say for the TEAM, moves they make, and FRANCHISE

He has been negative recently but he really wasnt during the season. He rips 1 of the writers from the other paper every time he writes a piece.I think he was pissed they didnt answer any "?"'s about JR so he is ripping into them because of access.Reporters are bitches
Patella tendon surgery is serious. Lol @ not missing any time. Read up on the injury first and foremost and stop believing whatever the Knicks say, which is usually false information. Remember 'day to day, sore left foot' for Wallace last season? Exactly.

Why are you questioning my sexual orientation?
That ain't the reason.
I saw what it did to TMS. He got very defensive about his picks. Kind of became "his girls" and could not process that some of the guys would pick rather buxom hispanic girl over a skinny snaggle toothed asian school girl.
That in't the reason.
Its really because of time issue. I spend too much time already.
I'll vote on a few picks and follow things but I try to spend less time here, not more.
Its all personal taste anyway. Its actually funny how some girls get thru. The supermodels vs. the vixens is always an interesting match. Is it the "Hottest" or the most beautiful?
isola is a woman,
HEY ISOLA WRITE ABOUT BALL AGAIN, NOT BABY MAMA DRAMA

Sounds like a button's been identified.
So Nalod, what did you do with all your Jason Collins bobbleheads?
one thing i never can get straight, does Isola actually have bad blood with Berman, or is it good natured ribbing?
also, does he legitmately have animosity with miami media?
