Knicks · Hope Rose is okay - but if he just went AWOL, you have to trade him. (page 1)

I'd take Nerlens Noel. Maybe to Miami for Goran Dragic.

But you cannot keep him on the team if he's just pouting.

Again, I hope he is okay. But if he is - he's gotta go.

Agreed..

Dragic would be a good move...salary dump for Miami...and we have our Euro pg

I told you those comments was a direct shot to rose, and you guys tried to blow it off like he was complimented baker..dude sat his all star starter (who's very shallow) and said he doesn't have to tell his 3rd string what to do. If we were winning and baker was filling in for a injured player, than maybe, but If thats not a subliminal shot, it's a direct one..For 100% sure

I missed that thread since I check out from the internet on the weekends these days. But I think you are correct.

Saw the Rose issues coming a week ago. Just didn't expect it to get this bad this fast.

Good news if its basketball related. Get rid as soon as humanly possible. A selfish bad egg if ever there was one. He was not a good fit in any case and was not going to help the team at all going forward. Trade asap.

This is some next level Knicks ish and I didn't think we could even possibly trump the Isiah/Larry Brown fiasco.

Holy sht is anyone watching JH press conference, read between the lines..this is serious

SMDH! Too much EGO going on. Melo and Rose are not leading by example. This is the wrong way to handle this kind of thing as a NBA vet. I'm extremely disappointed in BOTH Rose and Melo right now.

Yeah, I'm watching.

I don't think Rose will play again for this team. I wonder if his threats to retire are serious...

knicks1248 @ 1/9/2017 10:08 PM
you don't know the where abouts of your 21 million dollar player..wow

can you please type what he's saying... i dont live in NYC so i can't see the press conf and i am sure msg will cover some of the post game press conf comments from JH

magicTs @ 1/9/2017 10:09 PM
People paid 100's of $ to go to MSG tonight. And that spoilt little bitch couldn't be bothered turning up to play for the New York Knicks. Who the **** does he think he is? He earns millions, he got the support of the Knicks during all his nonsense over the summer and he turns around and does this to the ball club.
HE SHOULD NEVER WEAR THE KNICKS JERSEY AGAIN.

JH is refusing to answer any question relating to Rose saying "I can't comment". The clear suggestion is they have no idea where he is and have had no contact. What a complete shit show.

To be fair Melo does not deserve to be piled in with Rose. I'm an advocate of trading Melo if the deal is good, but he is a pretty good teammate and leader. Rose has had poor body language and played selfishly for weeks.

Melo has always shown up. Every day.

In a nut shell, the press is firing away the rose question from every angle, despite him he has no info. Questions like

When last you heard from him..

The big question IMO, was when they ask was there a problem with the recent benching, he flat out said NO.. and the room was stone cold quite for like 9 seconds, because word had already spread that there was. So for him to flat out say no, and the body language and look on his face after he said it.. was priceless.

It's like getting caught with your hand in the cookie jar, yeah you don't have know cookies in your hand, but wtf is in your mouth..

Its funny i finally started respecting Rose. During the rape thing i bashed him quite a bit then i felt guilty about. Now i feel stupid for feeling guilty. I understand having disagreements but you cant just go AWOL. Its the ultimate disrespect to your organization and teamates. I doubt anyone still wants to give him a long term deal now
