JR Smith’s $450,000 armored vehicle

Image

JR Smith has reportedly been cruising around the streets of New York in an armored vehicle worth over 450,000 dollars. It is never safe to go inside the mind of JR Smith, but if I had to guess, i would say that Smith has realized how badly he needs a crash-proof car. Good to see he learned at least ONE lesson from Jason Kidd last season.

BREAKING: KNICKS SIGN TOP TARGET BENO UDRIH

Image

League sources are confirming that the Knicks have agreed to a one-year deal with Point Guard Beno Udrih for the veteran’s minimum. Udrih had been the Knicks top target for the past couple weeks, but the team viewed him as an unlikely acquisition due to the fact that other teams had more money to offer for his services. However, it appears that Udrih has agreed to take less money to come to New York. Udrih will be the 3rd point guard on the depth chart, but should see a solid amount of minutes if the Knicks continue to employ the 2-PG sets they so often turned to last season. Udrih is a veteran who can shoot the ball and pass very well; this seems like a great addition for the Knicks, who now have 1 more roster spot to fill.

Euroleague Superstar Bobby Brown Flying to NYC to Meet with Knicks

By Tommy Rothman

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.
