Damn hughes is injured probably wont play against the bulls either. Dantoni said nate will not be in the rotation even with hughes out so I guess its Tdouglastime...

word do you really want them to rush and make a trade just to make a trade at this point? I mean this rotation is finally starting to click andlook like a playoff contender (despite absolutely giving that game away last nightOriginally Posted by Al3xis
What do you want them to do?
If they can trade JJ or Eddy, they will..there is really little else to be done.

I can see Portland biting on lee, they've shown interest in the past, and now that hes on an one year deal as well as oden out, voila.
They can play small and use an lineup of Dre-Blake-Roy-Lee-LAM. i have an feeling lee would def. play well there.
DJ-Hughes-Gallo-Buckets-Hill?
Bayless-Landry-Jon-Darko is def. an improvement over what we have now.
Duhon+Chandler for an first round pick? on crack, yes i know
i like your view on the Bobcats trade but dont you think that if Donnie was able to just pull the trigger and get DJ who would be our PG of thefuture and work PERFECTLY in the system, a guy we looked at hard last year, for a man who is not even playing right now and one of our long term contracts thatwe want to rid ourselves of, dont you think he would have done it by now? Its definitley not as simple as it sounds. I mean last year Donnie traded Z Bo whowas probably our best player at the moment and we were playing good ball if you remember, for pretty much JUST cap relief. Dont you think he would trade Nateand a guy like Jeffries who is playing well but is a long term contract for not only cap relief but a PG of the future in a second? From my pov it seems likewe need to add a little something extra to sweeten the deal and Donnie isnt willing to part ways with Gallo or some other young guys, and/or take on a longterm contract.
As for Lee, dude is playing some good ball right now and is an expiring contract. I wouldnt trade him just to trade him, starting Hill at center at this pointpretty much would show that we are tanking the season. No way is D'Antoni ready to put a guy who hasnt seen minutes in forever and a player who heoutspokenly thinks is too raw to contribute right now as his starting center when he is trying to make a playoff run.
maybe LB wants Donnie to take on one of the many long term contracts that they have which Donnie is probably reluctant to do. Idk im not the onediscussing the trades, all i know is that if it were as simple as Jeffries/Nate for DJ and an expiring itd b a done deal by now no ifs ands or buts about it.Originally Posted by BangDak
Zbo was actually playing great, besides his defense.
I know it isnt as simple as it sounds, but im sure he'll be able to make it happen if hes persistent enough.
and sweeten the deal? what else can the knicks do to "sweeten" the deal? throw in mobley? throw in an future first rounder?

why would we aquire a 180 lb sg for someone who is 6'10, better right now and is younger with more potential (the potential to actually be somewhat a presence in the post and off the dribble while Curry is too small to be anything more than just a shooter and lacks PG skills) and shoots the rock just as nice???
im coming home from school on Sat night and will be hitting up MSG for the 1st time this season on Sundfay night for the Bobcats... REVENGE!!!!
oh yeah forgot to mention but yeah id take Randolph 100% for the right price
The Steph situation unfolded right in front of us.Originally Posted by Super Producer J
I almost forgot how Marbs got blindsided at the beginning of last season. He plays excellent team ball during the preseason, then instantly buried on the bench next to the now former Fatman. And here we see Nate possibly in the same boat.
From a public viewpoint, I don't see the justification, in either situations. What goes on behind the scenes, of course I don't know.
Id bet $20 that GS would JUMP on the oppurtunity of Gallo for Curry... Gallo has FAR more star potential than Curry will EVER have in his NBAcareer. My mans the truthOriginally Posted by Big J 33

[h1]Knicks In Persisent Pursuit Of T-Mac[/h1]
Dec 17, 2009 11:49 AM EST
The Knicks have been one of the most persistent pursuers of Tracy McGrady over the past several weeks, ESPN.com has learned.
McGrady is likely to be dealt sometime within the next seven months, either before the deadline or in a sign-and-trade.
New York has been insistent on the inclusion of Jared Jeffries, which has hurt their chances of acquiring McGrady.
Harrington, earning $10.02 million, would almost certainly be a part of any proposed trade between the Rockets and Knicks, and New York can also offer the Rockets financial relief by including the expiring contract of Cuttino Mobley (whose $9.5 million salary is being paid by an insurance company) in the deal.
Houston sees the inclusion of Jeffries as a non-starter because his salary would prevent the Rockets having max room to work with in the summer of 2010.
Good to see the Knicks working, but Jefferies is what's stopping the trade talks.
