Here are a few creative accounting ways in how that $29M played out on the floor, assuming he indeed doesn't return in 09-10:

Jerome James vs David Lee

Here are a few creative accounting ways in how that $29M played out on the floor, assuming he indeed doesn't return in 09-10:

$2,507,204.61 per hour on the floor
$325,842.70 per game played
$130,044.84 per point scored
$177,914.11 per rebound

DAVID LEE $/stats - (not counting rest of 2009)

SALARY
2005/2006 - $ 861,360
2006/2007 - $ 926,040
2007/2008 - $ 990,600
2008/2009 - $1,788,033

Total = $4,566,033

STATS
6610 minutes = $690/minute
2082 rebounds = $2193/rebound
2451 points = $1862/point

Looking at it that way, I'd say trade David Lee! not.

So Jerome James makes more in 1 year than David Lee has made
his whole New York career, and now we can't afford to pay the man when his time has come to get paid? Staph Mebury gets $21Mill to NOT PLAY.

what does that tell you about James Dolan and the Knicks organization?

WOW.................

We both made threads about David Lee, and if he should get the contract that he deserves from our Knicks, but this post just put the ice on the cake.

Great post Clyde:beer:

Rotation player
Yeah he deserves some dough because this franchise has dished out money to some really unproductive players in the last decade. It wouldn't hurt to have such a hard-working player on our team. Give him the dough.

The knicks could claim medical retirement on the insurance because Jerome will not play in half of their games (41). It looks like his health is pretty bad.
I'm sure Walsh is working hard for this.

Can't blame Jerome for taking the contract, **** it if a franchise is dumb enough to throw dough at me that way and I suck, I would take it too.
