i thought rasual is from philly?

ruffrydya08 · Feb 28, 2011

^^ yea he is, my fault, good looking out on your part. Went to find the story, here's the little Rasual / Melo story:

In seventh grade, Anthony spotted Rasual Butler, now with the Los Angeles Clippers, at a basketball tournament. At the time, Butler was a high school all-American from Philadelphia and five years older than Anthony. Anthony challenged Butler to play one-on-one, and Butler obliged again and again.

Damn right!

you go boy · Feb 28, 2011

never would expect breen to be a goon

yeeupp · Feb 28, 2011

Whoever pointed that out.. good find

Butler might be a Knick / good friends with Melo.. and for coach.. a decent 3point shooter.

i like Azubuike's game but dude been injured for over a year now.. he haven't even touched the ball in a Knick uniform.
I did meet him, got his autograph too.

[h3]Barron To Sign 10-Day Contract With Bucks[/h3]
Feb 28, 2011 18:11 PM EST

The Bucks are expected to sign Earl Barron to a 10-day contract on Tuesday.

Barron was also receiving interest from the Knicks, but the team instead decided to sign Jared Jeffries.

When that Breen story was posted I just figured it had to do with all of Isola's Isiah is running the Knicks articles and Donnie is going to be fired for him to return.

Jeffries instead of Barron? Like we couldn't sign both? C'mon now man.

I don't know about R. Butler. Do we really need him? He's just another guy clogging up the 3spot imo. Walker and Williams already getting heavy minutes there. Walker's hit or miss but that's up to the team we face and mismatches. I remember most of Butler's game not that impressive. He's good enough to get minutes but I don't know if he's an improvement.

That Knicks winter beanie Carton had on today, I want it.

*Watching B&C in 60 now.

blackmagnus514 · Feb 28, 2011

Someone else is coming.

TheGodFresco · Feb 28, 2011

tommykairaa · Feb 28, 2011

Breen.

Mister Meaner · Feb 28, 2011

Yo, does anyone in this thread make avys?

GaBeGRaMz · Feb 28, 2011

Knicks merchandise is so much more necessary now.

You could tell Breen got real serious real fast cause Isola had this

look on his face. Breen was hot without a doubt, I got season tix by press row I could read Breen's lips at one point I am DEFINITE he said something along the lines of "Why would you say that" Breen's face started to get red and you could tell Isola was real uncomfortable

Isola didn't have much to say but Breen kept chewing him out. Kay even came over to say hi to Breen and Isola I presume but neither of them acknowledged him, you could tell the convo they were having was serious. At one point I could see that Isola didn't like that Kay was hearing all this, Kay walked away actually without even saying a word to either guy. This probably lasted a solid 3-4 minutes, kind of surprised no one mentioned anything about this.

Funny thing is next day Kay had Isola on his show on 1050 and Kay went at Isola asking him about his sources concerning the Isiah stories he's been writing

ayyyy cool story bro (no sarcasm)

I get how that story's locked down. Who would have the balls to report it?

Agent: Powe Considering Four Teams

Add New Orleans to the list of teams being considered by forward Leon Powe, if he clears waivers on Tuesday morning.

Powe's agent, Aaron Goodwin, confirmed in an interview with FanHouse on Sunday the Hornets have entered the mix to land Powe, waived Thursday by Cleveland. In addition to the Hornets, Goodwin said he's also had preliminary conversations with Boston, New York and Memphis, teams previously identified as candidates.

"New Orleans is a good young team that has a good chance to go to the playoffs,'' Goodwin said of why the Hornets appeal to Powe. "He would have a chance to play there.''

GaBeGRaMz · Feb 28, 2011

He was talking about a beanie joint with the fuzzy ball *pause* on top.

Carton from the Boomer and Carton show was wearing it.

That fitted that Melo had on the night he was traded is supposed to be in Foot Actions. Somebody on RealGM said they saw it there, but they didn't have his size.

They have this though. Got some Marvel nonsense on the bill:

So we talked a lil with Barron, had some talks with Powe and locked up Jeffries. I think Powe is Boston bound though. I'll keep saying that until I'm shocked with him being a Knick.

Wish there were more bigs out there.
