... will get to watch some of his old players (D.J. Strawberry, Alando Tucker) and some of the guys he's missing out on this year (um...Robin Lopez?). Meanwhile, the Knicks should once again be without Danilo Gallinari, and probably won't have Renaldo Balkman, who sprained his ankle in the last game. I guess it's another opportunity to get a hold on Wilson Chandler's growing game, as well as how Anthony Roberson might fit in New York. Regarding the latter, D'Antoni sees Roberson as an Eddie House type in his fast-paced offense, so I guess we should watch for those sorts of ...

... Marc Berman of the New York Post: "How ironic is it if Stephon Marbury's roster spot is taken by a former undrafted D-leaguer (Anthony Roberson) who played in Istanbul and Israel last season? The Knicks have 16 guaranteed contracts -- one too many -- and now have to cut a player, with Jerome James and Marbury on the chopping block.

... $20 million, he might as well help this team.“I think he’s willing to sacrifice. His reputation has been tarnished. He’s got something to prove. I saw him (Monday) and he looked great.” Steph has been practicing with the Knicks’ summer league team in Vegas. Clyde thinks that Marbury’s eager to prove that he’s worth some of that $20 million deal.
