And the difference is?
Alan Houston, shooting guard for the New York Knicks yesterday announced his retirement from the NBA. Many people wonder what the Knicks will do without the presence of the 11th best three-point shooter in NBA history.
I just wonder what the difference is, seeing as he’s hardly played since signing his name on a Knick contract anyway.

I beg to differ. He made some significant contributions in their championship bids of the late ’90’s. Unfortunately, since the departure of Patrick Ewing, John Starks, Latrelle Sprewell, Marcus Camby, and Charlie Ward, his efforts have proven to be futile. The Knicks made a mistake in making Alan Houston their only franchise player. -In the end, New York is the quintessential Atlantic Conference team; they suck…

Has hardly played since he signed the extension. Loved watching him play. But you could have told me he retired two years ago and I would have believed you.

I actually meant the extension and not the contract. You’re 100% correct. And not for nothing, but I’m a Knicks fan, and even I realize that losing him isn’t going to mean much difference for them seeing as he hasn’t played a complete season in an eternity.
