Why, if you don't trade me, buy out my contract or reinsert me into the rotation I'll... umm...
According to the New York Daily News, disgruntled Knicks guard Larry Hughes has pledged to turn scraggly facial hair into his own personal Woolworth counter. Like a tree planted by the water, he shall not be moved.
Actually, getting moved is exactly what he's asking for. However, he's done a better job of ensuring himself a season pass to Darkoland. This Knicker finna be lookin' like Frederick Douglass at the end of the damn bench. The Knicks equipment staff might as well start carrying a fold-out director's chair with "Larry Hughes" emblazoned on the back of it.
This is the anti-Nate Robinson situation. Take a lesson from Little Man. Mike D'Antoni has already shown a lack of interest in "playing that shit" and will obviously banish a nigga just to make a point. A little professionalism goes a long way in a situation like this. Walk year players need to show potential suitors that they'd be getting a cooperative employee.
Hughes is buying himself a starting job for next season, alright--it'll just be next to Stephon Marbury.
