TheKnicksBlog’s Adam Zagoria is reporting that one of the first of many moves that Phil Jackson will make, is to trade veteran point guard Raymond Felton.
Knicks President Phil Jackson told point guard Raymond Felton during exit meetings last month that he will be traded during the offseason, a league source told SNY.tv.
Raymond has been told he will be moved this offseason,” the source said.
Felton, who is due $7 million and has two years remaining on his contract, is also facing gun charges. This will make this even more frustrating for Phil Jackson, who already faces an uphill battle in regards to revamping this team and keeping Carmelo Anthony.
Good News Laker and Kobe fans, it seems as if Kobe Bryant is back at full strength after tearing his achilles and then fracturing his knee. He sat down with Jimmy Kimmel and explained where he’s at health wise and basketball wise recently.
From lakerholicz.com
During an interview with Jimmy Kimmel last week, Bryant revealed that his body is back to full strength and he’ll now spend the next five months working himself back into top basketball shape.
“From a health standpoint [I’m] 100 percent,” Bryant told Kimmel. “I’m not there yet [from a basketball standpoint]. I’ve started doing a lot of on-court training, so I’m back into my routine and then I’ll start lifting and start doing the running – which I hate – but by the time the season comes around I’ll be ready to go.”
After a hard fought fight against Maidana, Floyd “Money” Mayweather proved to be once again, the best ever.

Jameis Winston
In what weird news, Jameis Winston has been suspended from the FSU baseball team for allegedly stealing crab legs from a Publix.

After winning the National Championship, Winston has to realize that there is a huge spotlight on him, and that he can’t be making stupid decisions. He is a young guy, but he has to be more mature, especially when everyone wants to see him fail.
Hopefully, this is the end of his poor decision making, and a wake-up call that he is not untouchable.
