Knicks Will Keep Butler

Jul 13 - The New York Post reports Jackie Butler signed a three-year, $7 million offer sheet with the San Antonio Spurs yesterday, but the Knicks, according to sources, intend to match it.

Finally a good deal for the Knicks! This is a remarkably reasonable signing for them.

Yeah but it is so much more fun to make fun of them.

True, and I live in NYC so I see it all the time. Thing is, the Knicks do have some promising young big men in Frye, Butler and Lee. If they could unload some of the bloated contracts while retaining those three they could do something.

it sucks to me, cuz everyone still sees NYK as a "dynasty-type" franchise, and NY is a place everyone would love to play for (ESPECIALLY HARRINGTON)......

they had this past year labeled as a disaster...yet the franchise is not "lowly", and though they've been a mess since their finals appearance in 99, the doubters all know the knicks will be back in full force soon.....because they are the KNICKS.......but what about us?

I rambled a bit there, but what im trying to say is: the nation opinion on the hawks is pretty low, and though we've seen a bit of promising media lately....it still doesn’t look good. ugh, it's just annoying to me.
