Johnny Warren has a ring!

Love Ron Ron/MettaPeace as no one gave as much as he did night in and out.  Also glad for his joining Knicks as I was worried about US/Chinese relations

Great signing by the Knicks.

Mel Davis

al maguire as well.  can't think of anyone else.

Max Zaslofsky (spelling??)

Sonny Dove?

sonny dove played for the nets...never the knicks.

redslope gets it.  max zaslofsky.  i looked it up.  he was actually voted in 1971 one of the nba's top 25 all time players in its first 25 seasons.

Ron is a good guy - a real good guy - who loses his shit on the court in the most nuclear of ways.

Al McGuire is one I should have gotten.  Forgot that John Warren was a rookie on the 1970 team, and should have had that, too.

However, we could have been here for all of next season, and I never would have gotton Max Zaslofsky (I actually had to look that name up).

Let's not forget, that Joe Lapchick coached both St. John's and the Knicks, too.

St. John's twitter says Ron will actually be the 9th, and they are correct, as we all forgot Mel Davis:

Poison gets credited for remembering Mel in an earlier post

Yes, he did.  I missed it earlier.

St. John's and Sryacuse teaming up to break the Knicks championship drought...will this work better then the Georgetown and St. John's combo?

This will make Knick-Net games even more compelling and potentially wilder too. For Ron's and the Knicks sake hope he can avoid any controversies. Can just see Melo and Garnett having words and Ron getting involved or just Ron and Pierce or Ron and just about anybody. Ron has already proven he is strong and tough now he needs to prove how mentally strong he is by avoiding any conduct that leads to suspensions because with his track record the nba has already showed that his penalties will be stiffer than those for players without his past and reputation. I like the move and hope it works put for Ron and the Knicks.
