I don’t blame the guy, the Knicks are terrible. You saw Melo’s reaction yesterday right?! SMH (still love my team though). Knicks point guard Beno Udrih has requested a trade and it looks like the Knicks are willing to help make it happen.
Hit the jump for details…
Via ESPN:
League sources say the 31-year-old veteran communicated his wishes to the Knicks in recent days and the team will try to honor the request.
Udrih signed with the Knicks over the summer for the veteran’s minimum at $1.27 million. At the time, Udrih hoped to be a part of the Knicks’ three point guard rotation along with Raymond Felton and Pablo Prigioni.

Udrih caused a minor stir earlier this season when he publicly questioned why he was the subject of criticism.
“I kind of feel like when I do the right thing, it’s not the right thing in some people’s eyes. It’s just tough. It’s easy to point fingers when the team loses. But it comes down to, we are a team, we lose together. No matter who makes a mistake or who doesn’t, it’s still a team loss,” Udrih said on Dec. 25. “So I think all of this stuff should be kept out of the media and not call certain people out or something. We’ve just got to go out there and fix it and watch video and fix it as a team.”
Udrih didn’t specify who he meant by “some people,” but coach Mike Woodson had been critical of Udrih earlier this season, particularly for a defensive lapse in the final seconds of the Knicks’ mistake-filled loss to the Washington Wizards on Dec. 16.
“I got pointed out a couple of times that I think it was unfortunately a team loss at the end,” Udrih said.
