 Why Won't Isiah Free David Lee?
by Tom Ziller for FANHOUSE: I don't wish ill on Knicks fans; in fact, I rather like several Knicks fans. But Ron Artest in a Knicks jersey cannot happen soon enough. Why would this be considered a wish of ill by some? Because to get it done, David Lee must be involved... [link]

Ron Artest, please leave us the hell alone.

We can make a difference. For example: "Ron Artest is the greatest NBA player I've ever seen!" "Ron Artest makes a terrific quiche!" "When Francisco Garcia got a floor burn against Phoenix, Ron Artest walked over and touched Garcia's bleeding knee. The wound immediately healed, and Garcia used his new-found powers from the fingers of Ron to score 30 points." Do it, Isiah. Do it. Your ringing endorsements of Ron-Ron in the comments.

... his blog, Kings beat writer Sam Amick ruminates on the future of Ron Artest (or any well-paid Kings contributor, really) in Sacramento. Via Tom Ziller, who went over a series of Artest trade destinations on his blog in the objective style that he's known for. Seriously, Tom is brilliant when it comes to taking in a sober assessment of his favorite team, without being too dour, or too "Artest and a number one for Oden?"-with his analysis. PF: FanHouse. And over at FanHouse, Ziller wonders what it would take to pry David Lee from ...

Cleveland 98, Atlanta 94 I didn't get to see much of this one, so you're welcome to add whatever thoughts you had on this one in the comments. We should point out that LeBron James is insanely good, the best player in the NBA thus far, and scored 32 of his 36 points in the second half. Milwaukee 103, Miami 98 Free David Lee? Forget that.

... extension is one year further away than Lee's. And the Kings are equally stupid for demanding Lee in place of Balkman (unless they are hoping to appeal to their white fans or something). Honestly, haven't both teams realized that Balkman and Lee are pretty much the same player, but with the caveat that Lee is a better rebounder, and Balkman is a better defender? I guess it must be the white fans intangibles Lee brings to the game, huh?... ************ Also from The Fanhouse, but this time from Tom Ziller (an odd bit of role reversal - Shoals is writing about the Kings, ...

... in Walsh's career, he's accomplished the work of mere mortals, and has credibility to fall back on. Why not take a shot at this most mythical of disaster areas? Especially since Larry Brown already tried and failed with the same mindset. There's danger in the air. And then there's the fact that, as much as we basketball junkies harp on MSG's dysfunction and the Knicks' roster woes, this still is New York. If Walsh fires Isiah and does anything to clarify that squad's direction (like FREEING DAVID LEE ), all that Storied Franchise, Center of the Basketball Universe, Mecca of ...
