We interview Charlie Yao from Roundball Mining Company. You know we have to talk about the Melo trade. It was nice to get another Knuggicks fan’s opinion on the trade. Charlie has a different opinion about the situation than Benjamin Hochman did last episode. We also get his opinion on the Knicks and how he thinks both teams outlooks are for the future and if my Knicks Effect theory will start to slow down at all. It’s pretty windy where Charlie is so the audio isn’t the best, but the interview is really good so it’s worth a listen. Download Episode 48

Episode 46: The Knick Effect
We go over the Knicks last two games against the juggernaut that is the Pacers. We ask the question “would you undo the trade if you could?”. Jay comes up with a new theory called the Knick Effect, and reveals his findings by quizzing Marc about the results. Download Episode 46
Kelenna Azubuike gets bought out
The Knicks have waived Azubuike. This has likely been done to free up a roster spot for Jared Jeffries. I guess that makes sense since Roger Mason’s spot on the bench has been invaluable this season. Does Roger Mason have naked pictures of Walsh procreating with a donkey? How do you shoot 6% on the year and avoid getting cut? What was the thinking, let’s cut the guy who has been injured all year that has actual potential and is actually close to coming back and keep the guy who would need the entire starting five to die in a plane accident before he would get Bill Walker type minutes. And, Turiaf is now all that remains from the David Lee trade.
