Rautins out of the Big Apple

[orangejunkie]

Rautins was "collateral damage" in the Knicks trade for Tyson Chandler. Mavericks are expected to release him and his $600,000 salary. Too bad, I held out hopes that he might be considered a back up possibility at PG, but drafting Iman Shumpert who has tons more upside I guess made him expendable.

Maybe the knicks resign him after the Mavs dump him?

Rautins gets screwed by the Knicks just like JDub did back in the day.

While unfortunate, Andy should have a very productive career in Europe. He wasn't going to get much playing time in the NBA anyways. At least he got to make a few bucks in the league...

And he had a great bench seat at MSG last year. He had a better seat than Spike Lee.

Just saw him at a hotel in White Plains, NY and wished him well. Very nice guy and polite to my basketball crazed daughter.

Actually that's not true. Spike sits between the foul line and mid-court. Andy would sit all the way down at the end of the bench in the corner (past the end baseline).
