Knicks Trying To Lure Rasheed Wallace Out Of Retirement
Sep 24, 2012 – The New York Knicks are looking into signing power forward Rasheed Wallace, according to newsday.com. Wallace last played on the Boston Celtics back in 2010 as a bit player, helping them make a playoff run. Since then, the 38-year-old has been retired but recently was working out for New York. Head coach Mike Woodson and Wallace have a relationship that dates back to when both were members of the Detroit Pistons, including a 2004 NBA championship. The Knicks feel they need another defensive presence on the interior to pair with center Tyson Chandler, who can be a top-notch defender but also finds himself in foul trouble often. If acquired, Wallace would certainly be cost-effective and join a bench with the likes of other big-men Kurt Thomas and Marcus Camby.
Let me sum up the New York Knicks for you:
A guy unretiring to play for them would only be their 4th oldest player.
I mean now I’m starting to believe they are doing this on purpose. Like they’re playing one gigantic, billion dollar joke. Considering hiring Isiah Thomas. Considering a retired Rasheed Wallace. These are ideas that are so unbelievably bad you have to be trying to do it on purpose. The Knicks are the most dysfunctional team I root for and I’m a fucking Mets and Jets fan.
Rasheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed.
Ps: Aren’t the Mets still paying Bobby Bonilla? THAT, my friend is disfunction.
Holy shit. Why don’t they just bring Charles Oakley in for a work-out?
ps I can’t spell dysfunction
BALL DONT LIE!!!!
ALSO, latrell sprewell is only 42, he is the type of player the knicks need and they could prolly get him for like 20 or 30 dollars a game.
You guys wouldn’t even have to make a T-Shirt for this. A big tub and a box of Blue Rit Dye and you’re in business.
@Gronk Smash, yes the Mets are in the 3rd year I believe of paying Bonilla $1 million for 25 years. they didn’t want to pay him $5.9 million in his last year so they deferred it over 25 years with interest. Geniuses those Wilpons are.
^^should be $1 million per year for 25 years.
smart move!!!
I’m happy that there’s only one dysfunctional team I root for. I couldn’t imagine 3. Go Yanks and Giants!
Both teams played hard
Both teams played hard
Do me a favor KFC, and shut the fuck up, Rasheed Wallace is the fucking man! He’s the only player never to never commit a foul, the best pump up celebrator/dancer of all time, and the a flat out beast at driving the lane. When he gets the ball in the low paint, he’s guaranteed to get the ball into the basket, regardless of what teams basket it is. Rasheed Wallace is a legend, and i would be honored to have him on the Knicks.
