New York Knickerbockers President of Basketball Operations Donnie Walsh announced today that the team has waived forward Brian Cardinal.
Just a day ago, the team traded Darko Milicic for Cardinal. It was mainly a financial-related transaction.
The 6-8, 240-pound Cardinal has an NBA career average of 5.4 points and 2.7 rebounds on 41.2% shooting in 15.7 minutes per game. His best seasons came with the Warriors in 2003-04 (9.6 ppg, 4.2 rpg) and with the Grizzlies in 2004-05 (9.0 ppg, 3.9 rpg).
InsideHoops.com editor Jeff Lenchiner says: Knicks fans will miss Brian Cardinal and his contributions, but the pain and loss they’re feeling will ease with time. The Cardinal era was a great one for the Knicks, but even legends must someday say farewell and move on. (Note to new basketball fans: I’m kidding. Cardinal just arrived a day ago and now he’s already gone.)

I really used to like your website. You had very entertaining writers, and comedy, which is excellent! But, what is with all of the negative sarcasm? Every single article I read you have to have a negative comment either making fun of a player or a team. I think you need some new writers that actually give us usefull informtaion instead of all the worthless comments.

Yeah… Brian Cardinal is a HUMAN BEING.
What if he read your article? How do you think it would make him feel?
Not nice.
Brian Cardinal was an excellent addition to the Knicks while he was on the team.

I wasn’t saying anything bad about Cardinal at all, actually.
I was joking entirely about the length of time he was on the team.
But, I hear you.
