The Off-Season Thus Far
Posted on 14 Jul 2010 by Chris Cote.
Let's review, shall we? Jim Rutherford's shopping list this off-season was fairly light, with the Canes needing a few cheap, reliable defensemen, a veteran 3rd line center and (had the budget been there) a top line winger. For the most part however, the name of the game was to simply hang on to all the young guys and stock up the Charlotte Checkers. Now, due to Karmanos setting the budget ...

Lebron to Miami: The Only Wrong Choice
Posted on 8 Jul 2010 by Jordan Lauterbach.
Parody in the NBA died tonight. It didn’t get sick. It didn’t go on life support. It died. Lebron James had a chance to make the league great again. He had a chance to push the league to new heights, new levels, and popularity unseen since Michael Jordan left the Bulls over a decade ago. But instead of taking that responsibility and making it count, Lebron did somethi...

But What If Lebron Says No?
Posted on 8 Jul 2010 by Jordan Lauterbach.
While a lot of signs point to Lebron not disappointing Knick brass tonight, it has come out that the Knicks have a plan if he does bolt to Miami or Chicago. From Realgm.com: “If LeBron James chooses not to sign with the Knicks, multiple sources have told Marcus Thompson that the Warriors have an offer on the table that sends forward Anthony Randolph and other pieces to New York in a sign-a...

Posted on 7 Jul 2010 by Jordan Lauterbach.
Apparently I’m not the only one writing about how the Knicks are a sleeping giant in the whole “Lebron thing”. Check this out from hoopsworld.com: “Several sources indicated that James' advisors Maverick Carter and Randy Mims could be traveling to New York on Wednesday and sources have hinted that James will be joining them for the trip. Sources also said that Carter and Mims have been ...

The Excitement of Free Agency
Posted on 6 Jul 2010 by Bennett Snyder.
All NBA fans have been waiting for the 2010 summer since 2008. There has never been a free agent class like this in basketball, and in any sport for that matter. Teams have been trading away players like they have the plague just to clear up a little more cap space, in hopes to land one of the superstars. The great thing about free agency is dreaming of the scenarios that could happen, before...

After Amar’e Signing, Knicks Should Be Favorites for Lebron
Posted on 5 Jul 2010 by Jordan Lauterbach.
The first domino has fallen and……….. it’s Amar’e Stoudemire. It’s no surprise, in fact it was rumored all weekend, but it is nice to see it set in stone. Multiple reports have the deal at 5 years/ 100 million dollars. Stoudemire was seen outside Madison Square Garden wearing a Knicks hat, his arms-outstretched, beaming with happiness. The move makes a ton of sense. Stoudemire is one...

Major Lebron Watch Rumor
Posted on 2 Jul 2010 by Jordan Lauterbach.
Not good news for the Knicks: As per a Yahoo! report via 1050 ESPN New York (flagship station for Knicks b-ball, if that’s at all relevant)- the Knicks are close to being out of the Lebron James sweepstakes because of a sloppy and unfocused presentation yesterday in Cleveland. This would be not only a blow to the franchise, but also completely unacceptable. How can a team that has been prep...

While You Were Working: Summer 2010 Day 2
Posted on 2 Jul 2010 by Jordan Lauterbach.
As we wait on The Big Man (sorry Clarence) to make his move, here are some Knick happenings from around the web. - According to realgm.com, Amar’e Stoudemire and the Knicks are close to a max deal. The framework, apparently, is in place. Stoudemire represents the not-so-secret plan B for Knicks. That is, “Let’s just re-create the D’Antoni Suns.” Not a terrible idea when you cons...

My take on the Lebron James circus
Posted on 2 Jul 2010 by Garrett Henry.
It seems to me that everywhere you go or watch TV someone is either talking about Lebron James or reporting they have insider information on Lebron. It’s getting real old and for me this has overtaken the Brett Farve saga as the most annoying story of 2010. Yes there are a lot of stars in the free agent class and if a team signs one or two then they can come become contenders. The only ...

Oilers beef up on D; sign Foster
Posted on 1 Jul 2010 by Scott Pattison.
The Edmonton Oilers, who incurred one of the highest man games lost to injury ratios in the entire NHL the past two seasons, are determined to do something about it. The Oilers signed monster D man Kurtis Foster to a two year, $1.8M per contact today. The 6′, 5″, 230-pound blueliner scored 40+ points for the Lightning last season. Previously he patrolled the blue line in Minnesota. ...
