The Knicks acquired Patrick Ewing Junior in a trade with the Houston Rockets. And all they had to give up was Frederic Weis.
Weis the 15th pick in the 1999 draft, signifies everything that was wrong with the Knicks. We could have had Ron Artest for heaven's sake.
Maybe dumping him will exorcise some kind of demons.
I have no idea why the Rockets would do this, Weis is never playing in the NBA, maybe just to be nice to the Knicks and Ewing, who might be the 16th man on a 15-man Knicks roster anyway.
But at least this gives him the chance to revel in his dad's glory for a little while.
Not that its saying much, butter Ewing Jr. is a better player than Balkman (who they wasted a first round pick on). and now Balkman is gone
