Knicks · Don't expect much from jason Smith, he's just to busy to think about basketball (page 1)

I ike it when the Knicks employ a guy who has an active, far-ranging life outside basketball. It always happens to be the guys with really generic names, for some reason. I miss Bill Walker and James White every day, and I'm happy Jason Smith has arrived to carry on their legacy. Let's see what he's been up to over the last few weeks.

He scored 6 touchdowns in ONE HALF for Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College, which made his future school, Auburn, very happy.

He got promoted to assistant coach of Northeastern hockey.

He became head of Australian art at the Queensland Art Gallery.

He also joined the coaching staff of the Ottawa Senators somehow.

He clarified Driver's Ed rules in Virginia.

He caught a bank robber in Ohio!

He's supporting legislation to help people to keep their health insurance plans.

He's going on the radio to talk about being the greatest kicker in Colorado State history. (Nice little coincidence there!)

He showed off his art in Gainesville, GA. He's known as the "crafty cowboy."

He targeted bigger trout with live croakers!

He admitted to not paying his workers enough on a construction project.

He watched his friend hit a hole-in-one in New Jersey.

He posed as a pastor to to con a hotel.

Pretty disappointed in that last one, guys. We've learned that this new Knick likes to stay busy in the offseason, but fraud is not cool, Jason. We'll see what the league has to say about that one.


Seems like he doesn't really gives a crap about the up incoming season, no triangle, no post moves, nothing at all related to basketball.

He'll be fine come training camp. There's nothing wrong with leading an active life.

Glad to hear he's been busy and productive. What's wrong with that? Nothing. Nice to see that he was trying to rectify that situation with his construction crew, paying those guys out of his own pocket. Trying to make good on a situation that didn't go according to plan. To me, that's a man right there.

I wish it didn't chew up our entire mid-level but all in all, Jason Smith was a very good signing. Dude's a quality backup NBA big man. No doubt. Think about how skilled this guy is compared to a Chris Dudley, a backup C we had a few years ago. I liked Dudley, he banged and hustled, but come on--no real comparison here. Apples and oranges...Well worth the money when you really think about it. Not sure how much he'll wind up playing for us this year but it's nice to know that Fish has some quality to chose from looking down the bench. That's what we need, what any team needs...If he plays well and contributes, I know I'll want him back after the year's up for sure. Cole Aldrich too..

he also got a nice tan while playing for the rams

EnySpree @ 9/16/2014 12:19 PM

And we all know he had a side gig as the red tiger ranger.

What a guy!

I guess he's content with being a super avg ball player

This is a joke, the writer of the article just googled Jason Smith and wrote things down that other Jason Smiths did...

HAHA, that'll teach me to read more carefully from now on!

My other comments still stand though -- quality reserve big man and I'm glad he's here.

That may be true , but maybe Jason Smith is all those other guys at the same time!

This joke would've been better if his name was John Smith

The whole thing was from a Posting and Toasting article.
