What’s the Deal with Cuttino?

By Tommy Dee on Dec 01, 2008, 7:43 pm

Moving aside from the Marbury fiasco I saw this note from Marc Berman in today’s Post and was very curious about it.

“…Marbury said he was skeptical of D’Antoni’s offer – following the Knicks’ recent trades – to be the starting shooting guard, and wondered if the offer was Walsh’s doing. The Knicks still are awaiting word on Cuttino Mobley’s status, with signs pointing to his heart condition being career-ending…”

Having reached out to our people all day, no one can confirm Berman’s claim that Mobley’s heart issue is career threatening, but we’re on the case.

I just can’t see how a guy who was averaging 33 minutes before the trade will have to stop playing, (well obviously I can see it happening…)and the Knicks would love Mobley, Nate and Jared Jeffries, who practiced today and may be ready for Sunday’s game against Detriot, to come back for the December run.

Stay tuned.

    Mobley has had a good NBA career but he does not need to risk his life playing an run and gun system so it might be best for him to retire and get paid his remaining salary.
