Man, that must be one dangerous flight from LA to New York. Cutino Mobley had played in EVERY game so far this season, averaging 33 minutes a game. He's averaged over 35 minutes and 77 or more games for the last 3 seasons. In his last game as a Clipper (Friday, 11/19), Mobley had arguably his most productive game of the season, scoring 23 points on 11/20 shooting and snagging 7 steals. Then he gets traded over the weekend, takes a flight out to New York, now suddenly he has a heart condition and is seriously considering a health related retirement. What I want to know is WTF happened on that plane?!?
Besides the fact that I had snagged Mobley in a bunch of leagues (which I have since dropped), hoping for the D'A bump, Mobley is still a very productive player. If the Knicks don't want him, I'm sure they're are lots of teams around the league (BOS, DAL, HOU, PHO, ORL, comes to mind) that would love to sign a veteran SG at the league min. If the Knicks are just trying to push the retirement agenda to get insurance to cover Mobley's salary and save cap space... I'm surprised Mobley is just going along with all this. Really weird situation in NY and I really wish we knew more.

not commenting on your Mobley post... I just noticed your twitter widget... lol! =D
The ghost of Isaiah Thomas sexually harassed him on the plane and now he's too ashamed to suit up.
