Then get mad as hell when he picks someone else up instead. "Why didn't that stupid motherfucker pick up So and so? Fuck Phil he can kiss my whole asshole!"
Anybody remember Randolph Morris? He's been a very successful Chinese basketball association player. He's been playing with Marbury winning championships and shit. Why doesn't a nba team give him a shot?
I say that to say there are so many worthy prospects out there that just need a shot to prove they can play. There's just too many. Alot of guys mentioned here have been around a while. There are 30 nba teams. If they were so good someone would pick them up easy.
My guy Bobby Brown dropped 65 points the other day. He scored 70 last year in a cba game. He played summer league and was on a nba pre season roster, but he didn't look that good. A guy like Seth Curry is in the same boat. He's had his shot a few times but sucked when he got called up.
Anyway bye
We should cut all non-believers after a bad game. We should sign our favorites based on the hope they are better.
Lather, rinse, repeat.
Some had Grunwald as "Exec of the year" when we released Billups and signed Tyson. "Pre-Flu" we were so happy. We know how that ends, and now we lament as we only got Calderon as "PostFlu" Tyson on a good team is playing much better. The list goes on and on.
Whats a girl to do? Whine, complain and get mad!!!!!
Everytime i've been reading and hearing media and fans talk about Phil they keep saying he hasn't gotten anything in his deals but that isn't true. they forget that we got
Larkin, Early and Thanasis in the Tyson trade. Also Ellington was used in a trade that brought in
Acy so all told the Knicks did actually get 4 young players who are currently still in the mix with the team. Sure they didn't pick up Larkins option but that doesn't mean he won't be brought back. There's still a chance he is resigned. Phil also got a pick from Indiana and took
Louis Labeyrie. Who knows if he ever turns into anything but it's not exactly true that Phil isn't trying to add young prospects.
Then you look at Wear and Galloway and that's like 2 more draft picks. 2 guys who actually seem like they fit in this system. We'll see if Lance Thomas actually has something to offer. OK people can kill Phil for the 2019 2nd but overall he has been fairly active in getting some young prospects in here. Also he's not necessarily done yet with more time to get something done.
I can only speak for myself. I am not mad that he picked someone else up. I am mad that he picked someone else up that has proven time and again that he sucks. Why not use roster spots on players who can maybe help you at least there is a chance.
With Thomas, I really just think Fisher wants some eyes and ears in the locker room that he trust. I know that's all conspiracy theory but I think that is the case. I could be wrong.

Well with a 10 day contract at least it's not a long term commitment. There still remains a chance that someone that others like will be picked up. It would be interesting to see what the internal thinking of the Knicks staff is regarding the available talent that is out there. Also what their plans are for future deals.
We should have picked up Millsap as leverage to sign his brother
Utah picked up both Elliot Williams and Elijah Millsap from the D League, we still have empty roster spots

Kind of the reverse of what we did with JR and his brother.
