Star Euroleague Point Guard flew to New York on Tuesday to meet with the New York Knicks, the NY Post reported. Brown is a talented scorer who uses his athleticism and ball-handling skills to get his shots off. Brown was the best scorer in Europe last season, and would be a welcome addition to a team desperately seeking a 3rd PG to fill out the roster. More to come, stay tuned.
While the NBA schedule will not come out until tomorrow night, league sources have started to leak a few details for hungry NBA fans. We already knew a few things going into today. OKC will visit the Garden on Christmas, the Knicks and Nets will square off on MLK Day, and the Knicks and Heat will do battle the day before the SuperBowl. And now, a league source has leaked the first opponent of the season for the Knicks. On opening night, the Knicks will face off against….
The Bucks?????
League sources are indicating that the Knicks will indeed take on the Bucks to begin the season, most likely at the Garden. The Bucks are rebuilding after having lost their three best players in free agency this summer, so this isn’t exactly what you’d call a prime-time matchup. But hey, at least we are on tap for a pretty easy win to start it off, if we take care of business.

Through all the ups and downs of the first stages of this offseason, one thing is very apparent. The Nets are back, and Knicks should not be happy about it. After finishing second in the East behind the Heat last year and nearly making it to the Eastern Conference finals last season, the Knicks are being dangerously overlooked. CONTINUE READING…

Stephen A Smith said on ESPN Radio today that LeBron James has let word leak out that he will strongly consider joining the Knicks in 2 years. Smith’s reporting should always be taken with a grain of thought, but if LeBron is willing to opt-in to his contract for one more season after this year, it would enable him to become a free agent right when the Knicks have all of their contracts coming off the books. If James opts-out and signs another max deal this coming summer, the Knicks have no chance of getting him. If he opts in after next season, the Knicks will be one of the frontrunners in the chase for James as they can seek to unite him with Carmelo Anthony & others. Again, be wary of Stephen A Smith’s legitimacy, but stay tuned, because if LeBron is opting in this coming summer, the chase is back on in New York.
