Did Walsh Make the Right Move?

Now, I have to be honest. I like Ramon Sessions. How can you not like a guy who’s worked his way into the NBA after leaving school early on the heels of success with Nick Fazekas at Nevada, not getting drafted and working your way up through the D-League.
But seriously, I’ve watched the guy play [...]

Time for Douglas to Step Up

While some Knicks fans wished for the team to make offseason moves, the end result is a summer of relative silence. Whether one thinks that adding Ramon Sessions and dipping into the 2010 piggy bank was a move that Donnie Walsh should have made, it is a rather moot point.
The fact that Walsh didn’t pull [...]

Walsh Gives Clarity on Sessions

Via Hahn:
“…Sessions’ agent, Jim “Chubby” Wells, initially tried to push the full mid-level exception, but as we maintained here, there was never any real truth to the rumors that the Clippers hadthe MLE — or anything close — on the table. Wells was amenable to working with the Knicks on a decrease for 2010-11 to lessen [...]

D’Antoni: “Gallo can be a top-level player”

Via NBA.com
“…What we’ve seen of him (Gallinari) and what we know of him as a person, a leader and all that, we think he can be a top-level player in this league,” D’Antoni said. “He’s definitely one of the best shooters in the league, without a doubt. He’s 6-10, knows how to play and is [...]

ESPN: Wolves/Sessions Agree

Via Chris Sheridan:
“…The waiting and wondering is finally over for restricted free agent Ramon Sessions, who agreed Friday to sign a four-year, $16 million offer sheet with the Minnesota Timberwolves.
A source told ESPN.com that the paperwork on the deal was being processed Friday morning. After Sessions signs, the Milwaukee Bucks will have seven days to [...]

Will Sessions be a Knick October 1st?

We know Ramon Sessions is playing the waiting game, as the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel wrote about today, but there is a key point worth noting.
“…The Knicks clearly expressed a strong interest in Sessions, but they were unwilling to do anything to compromise their chances of signing LeBron James or another elite free agent (Dwyane Wade, Chris [...]

Deal in the Works?

Now let me preface this as not to upset anyone who is allergic to speculation. But I have a feeling there is something in the works regarding the Knicks roster. I’ve poked around and heard from several places that there is zero trade market for Nate Robinson, and along with the sign and trades that [...]

Is Donnie Confident He Can Clear Cap Space?

I still believe that Sessions has a strong chance of landing in New York.  Donnie knew when he contacted Sessions’ agent that he would have to sign the guard to a multi-year deal.  That is not just a measure of practicality.  That is a technicality.
However, as Gery Woelfel and Alan Hahn have noted, it appears that Donnie [...]

Walsh’s Report Card

Kevin McElroy of knickerblogger gives a year-round summary of Donnie Walsh. It’s worth checking out as grades are given for each move.
“…All told, Walsh’s tenure got off to a promising start but has suffered from several moments of seeming hesitance to take the final plunge and commit to any one comprehensive strategy.  Walsh has clearly [...]

Thoughts on Sessions

I can understand the fan’s frustrations about the fact that the team has failedto make a huge splash this summer. I like action as much as the next guy. But it’s clear that Ramon Sessions isn’t a get at all costs type of player.
With no apparent sit downs planned, the Knicks may move on as [...]
