We already know Kim Kardashian isn't above pulling publicity stunts to get a little extra attention. Hell, her entire career is basically based off a stunt involving Ray J, a FlipCam, and, well, you know the rest. But, is her marriage to Kris Humphries just another stunt, too? According to the celebrity gossip site Wet Paint, Kim had her eye on a different NBA baller before she started dating Humphries and actually had a representative from E! approach him to see if he'd be interesting in dating her on the debut season of Kourtney & Kim Take New York. That player? None other than former Knicks star Danilo Gallinari. Kim wanted a NYC-based baller to help anchor the show.

Thankfully, Gallinari said no to the proposal. He wasn't interested in being a reality TV show star. But Kim got her wish to date an NBA baller shortly after that when Nets point guard Jordan Farmar introduced her to his teammates Humphries. Ah, man. You just can't win, can you, Kris?
