Nate on ESPN First Take
Talks about playing for three coaches in four years, D'Antoni and the summer league jersey retirement thing....and Jay and Dana go after Joakim Noah, who blames the media for his off-the-court issues in Chicago. What a shock. Thanks to nets1fan102290 for the original post.

The lady should ask both of them, "So, you're both from big markets, why are you're teams so bad?".
Nate is a undersized two guard. He doesn't play defense and loves to chuck shots up at the end of games. I thought maybe if he could improve defensively he would have a shot at being a Knick for a long time. I think he won't be one for much longer.
Noah looks and says the right things - much like Steph. He's good friends with David Lee. Lee didn't win the grand prize at the college level at Florida like Noah did. He looks like a great backup player. Bulls shot themselves picking him at 10 overall however. I think he will be used for the Bulls to get better for a trade down the road.
Both average and both role players. For bad teams.
Dear Genius (Alan),
I always read your blog and rarely post. I have to this time because you are SO off base it's scary. What you've just done is played the part of the hated 'New York media stereotype'.
He's not blaming the media for his off court problems. He fully takes responsibility for what he did and said he wouldn't even change it if he could because he has learned from it. He blamed the media for making stuff up and blowing things out of proportion, kind of like the way you just did. You know, the way you just took his words and twisted them into something they were not... "Would you change the marijuana arrest?" "No, because I feel like i've learned from my mistakes and experiences."..."How are things with your teammates? Did you smooth things over?" "I think that is something that was blown out of proportion by the media. They say Ben Wallace and I got into a fight, but that never happened." But this genius 'writer' turns it into "Joakim Noah, who blames the media for his off-the-court issues in Chicago".
You just made Noah's point EXACTLY. SAD SAD SAD.
Although I do think Alan stretched it on the media comment, this is still the best Knicks blog by far. Most of the comments above are pathetic and don't belong here. Let's talk basketball and save the garbage talk for other places, if you must do it at all.
Alan,
It may be time to make people register and you will see the
the trash posting here vanish. Foolio is right. Just one sad sack
posting to himself. That is really sad.
