    Default LeBron eliminates the knicks

    The Knicks have been virtually eliminated from contention for LeBron James, according to a report from Yahoo's Adrian Wojnarowski.

    James' camp categorized New York's presentation as 'lacking preparedness and organization.'

    [COLOR=Red]EDIT[/COLOR]

    Wojnarowski also includes claims that James was turned off by Donnie Walsh's need to use a wheelchair due to a neck ailment, and that James was similarly deflated by owner James Dolan's appearance.

    There have been rumblings in recent days that those closest to James are concerned about him playing for the Knicks and what implications that might hold for the power balance around the superstar. There have been some indications that Maverick Carter, James' closest friend, is opposed to a move to the Knicks.

    However, the status of Wojnarowski's anonymous sources is unclear since he only generically cites "sources" but does not indicate their position in relation to James, or their particular knowledge of James' reactions to the presentation from New York.

    Wojo has consistently written was have no chance. He consistenly adds a paragraph or two to other articles saying the Knicks suck. He has something against us. This is nothing new. It is not a bad sign, its no sign - he just doesn't like us.

    Seriously, he has been writing like this for more than a year - look at his aritcles WWW IS SAYING BULLS! KNICKS NO CHANCE! KNICKS SUCK!

    He wrote last week that the Knicks had no chance at any of the Top 10 FA's on the market. Tell me that's not silly.

    Lacking preparedness in something they've been focusing on for multiple years? Not buying it.

    Wow what a garbage article. Full of holes....I mean c'mon "James' camp categorized New York's presentation as 'lacking preparedness and organization.'"

    His camp? Who interviewed his camp? Did LeBron give authorization for that to be released? Is that even what LeBron said?

    And he has reservations about making more money in New York than in Cleveland? Uhh hello, the Knicks just pitched him a Billion dollar makeover plan.

    You never know. Now that LeBron is out of the picture, Amare might pull out too?

    Yes, because Wojo said so, with his kick ass track record for breaking stories and having inside sources.

    Net fans shouldn't get excited. It's like Game. Everyone says Game is a good rapper because they hated 50 Cent. So it was WOW THAT GAME IS MAD SKILLED, when we all knew that he sucked (just like 50).

    People want the Knicks to fail, so they say NETS DID BETTER!! REALLY THEY DID!!! and at the end of the day when neither of us get Lebron, they can still claim the nets did better, meaningless as it will be.

    If this is accurate, you gotta consider this to be a huge disappointment for Knick fans.

    I don't hate the knicks. Though, I am a nets fan. I am not saying the Nets are garunteed to get him.
    IMO we just had more than the knicks had to offer. I don't mean money wise.

    Knicks were out of it from the get go. Like Bucher said, LeBron+Bosh/Amar'e....who else? Who are they going to sign? D'Antonio as coach? Come on, now. It's between Miami and Chicago.

    Is that why they ran an extra hour? Cause they weren't prepared?

    I don't like Wojo more than the next guy, but if true, damn.
