 The Power Of Maybe: LeBron Selling Knicks Tickets Darren RovellIn just a couple of weeks, the New York Knicks have taken deposits on 1,800 new season tickets. Marcus Camby headlines Donnie Walsh's supporting cast in case Lebron James Frank Isola The Knicks' primary target this summer is LeBron James, but when it comes to the supporting cast Donnie Walsh plans to assemble, the team president has his eye on a free agent with New York ties. Knicks' prez takes D'Antoni off hook for team's strugglesMARC BERMANA feisty Donnie Walsh said it's his fault the club is not winning, not Mike D'Antoni's, and said he has no regrets about embarking two years ago on this cap-clearing plan that gutted the roster. The Knicks president also cautioned that he never promised he will hit a home run this summer during free agency, that the process could take longer to build a title contender. Walsh gave no indication D'Antoni's job is in danger or that he was disappointed in him. Donnie Walsh sees New York Knicks' struggles and mulls tradesMitch Lawrence Before making his pitch to LeBron James on July 1, Knicks president Donnie Walsh wanted to make the playoffs. Making the playoffs, which the Knicks haven't reached in six years, might have helped in recruiting James as a free agent this summer. D'Antoni not ruling out trade before deadlineMARC BERMAN Coach Mike D'Antoni said the reeling Knicks continue to search for trade opportunities before the Feb. 18 deadline, but with the club starting to fall out of the playoff race, they might be more inclined to do a deal that opens up more 2010 cap space. D'Antoni said the 2010 free-agency plan is a major factor in any deal, and the Knicks continue to shop Jared Jeffries, whose trade could open up more cap room. Whether a Jeffries trade turns into a roster upgrade is debatable because he's having a good season. Knicks' Walsh to explore potential tradesBy MARC BERMAN Knicks president Donnie Walsh would not guarantee he will make a trade by the Feb. 18 trading deadline. But Walsh admitted scenarios will be explored at this week's scouting meetings, as he expressed bitter disappointment with Sunday's disgraceful 50-point loss to the Mavericks -- the worst home defeat in Knicks history. Walsh still has eyes on RubioBy MARC BERMAN When the Timberwolves visit the Garden tomorrow, they'll be without the 19-year-old floppy-haired Spanish point guard the Knicks still covet. Ricky Rubio, whom the Wolves drafted sixth, is playing in Spain this season, switching teams to FC Barcelona. That actually turned out well for the Knicks, who are still marking his progress. Knicks Succeed by Selling an Intangible: HopeHOWARD BECK As short-term investments go, a Knicks season-ticket plan might seem rather ill fated. Fans last summer were asked to send thousands of dollars to a 32-win team that had added no significant talent and was trudging toward the second year of a wait-now, rebuild-later plan. Trade request could cost Nate Robinson fine from New York Knicks *Update*
The NBA is considering fining Nate Robinson for his agent asking the
Knicks to trade the veteran guard. A Knicks source told the Daily News
that the league has investigated comments made by Aaron Goodwin in
which he criticized Mike D'Antoni for benching Robinson. "I can't allow
Nate to rot on Mike's bench and not do anything about it. I can't allow
this to happen to his career," Goodwin said Dec. 19. "It's clear that
Mike D'Antoni doesn't want to play him New York Knicks big man Eddy Curry disappointed in lack of court timeMitch Abramson Eddy Curry remains disappointed in his lack of playing time. The big man hasn't played in four straight games, a string that corresponds with the Knicks' recent winning ways - they had won seven of nine before Friday's 93-87 loss to the Heat. |
