Everyone must watch this, well, everyone except Jackie as she's already emotional enough over this trade.

I can't watch it for some reason. I tried viewing it with Firefox and IE. Any help here? ++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Thank you so much, I wanted to see that so badly but not living in SA, I didn't think I was going to be able to. Malik had me in tears, that's that saddest thing I have ever seen. For everyone who says he'll be fine because he's still getting paid millions, this video will tell you how wrong that is.

^I hear ya, Myzte! But, there are some very obvious consolations for him which will ease the pain in the long run. For example, a $3 million trade kicker, not to mention all the love and support he'll continue to have in San Antonio.

Let's see the guy is getting paid millions and he is moving to the greatest city in the world. Yeah, I'm heartbroken.

Great video. Thanks for posting it, Misti. It doesn't work for me from the WOAI homepage. 
 
I will miss Malik. Jersey, there are such things in the world other than money. You can't buy friendships and community spirit. That is why money never will be a job satisfier.

The way he was sobbing, it didn't look like its the greatest city to him.....now does it??? HmMmmMmmM<img src=http://www.sahoops.net/smilies/wink.gif ALT=":;)"> <div style="text-align:center"><img src="http://venus.walagata.com/w/twankies/Smilies/nerd2.gif" style="border:0;"/>

Money makes the world go round hue. Had Malik not cared that much about money, he would have realized that he signed a bad contract that would ultimately result in his relocation. 
 
It is hard to pity the guy. Besides, he's going to NYC. This isn't the boondocks here!

Maybe he was sad because he liked San Antonio and didn't want to move. Not impossible to believe. That's All-Star Manu Ginobili to you.

^^^Spurs actually gave him the contract and the extra year, on it. That was hard to watch. <div style="text-align:center"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v357/greg9683/MySigsAndAvatars/gregophotography_sig.jpg"/>[/link]

That was a tough video to watch, but at the same time he understands the business aspect of the Sport. It must be incredibly hard for Malik to leave over night and put on another jersery after spending significant years dawning the Silver and Black. On the other hand, Naz has to be loving the fact that he's leaving that laughing stock known as the Knicks.

by **Jersey12** on Fri Feb 25, 2005 12:38 pm

If he never wanted to leave S.A. he could have taken less money and signed received a no-trade clause. Instead, he took more than he was worth.

Malik says goodbye in interview- a must see!
