That is true... and I'd say saying Knicks fans have it rough for a minute is very light. They haven't won since the 70's and in the 90's they been tormented by the Bulls. Lost twice in the Finals and we all know about the 2000's.
Still, I'm with you on ownership. Jerry needs to go and his son cannot take over soon enough as he's more basketball compared to Jerry. Jerry is all about his White Sox.
As far as Teague, work in progress without question. He's looked pretty bad in summer league but that's not the reason why he's not getting paid. The reason is cheapness.Comment

I always thought he should've stayed in school. I think all the Kentucky hype clouded it, especially with Knight coming out and Rose coming out after a year under Calipari. This kid just wasn't ready. And the Bulls shouldn't have drafted him where they did if they agree with me. If you don't think he's worth paying at that slot then don't draft him there. Maybe they can move him in a trade.That is true... and I'd say saying Knicks fans have it rough for a minute is very light.

I agree on all accounts... don't think they will find a trade partner though.I always thought he should've stayed in school.

Either way if they knew this was going to they shouldn't have done the presser for him. Still a little bitter about Thunder drafting PJ3 the pick before.Comment

That was a GREAT pick by the Thunder. Maybe it shock em a little, but they shouldn't have expected him to last even that long. I don't follow the draft contract slotting like some around here, but my understanding is there's only so much wiggle room here anyway so it seems completely out of line to not want to pay Teague within that range.
I wonder how many options he has.Comment

Bulls have done this before and they might do it again. I'm sure they could have traded that pick before making it.Comment

Re: NBA Movement Central 2012 (All Transactions 1st Page)
Yeah, I'm putting all the blame on the Bulls. The kid should've stayed in school but the punishment for that decision should've been slipping down to the 2nd round or not being drafted. Since the Bulls drafted them all responsibility falls on them. I think the NBA should step in but is he obligated to just those two options? He couldn't go to Europe? Not sure how that works since they have his rights but he's not currently under contract.Comment

of course we tried to land a top FA (Tracy McGrady mainly) at that time just didn't have any luck.
