I rather trade Ricky than Cat. Either way, EG will get more PT

Walsh Waiting On Confirmation From Clippers?

The Knicks are working on a separate deal from their trade with Golden State, which would send Zach Randolph to the Los Angeles Clippers, possibly for Tim Thomas and Cuttino Mobley.
It is believed that Donnie Walsh is ready to make that deal but is awaiting confirmation from the Clippers, who pursued Randolph last summer.

I dont get why some of you guys aren't liking this deal. You get to keep both Camby and Kamen and get another big who can spread the floor with hisperimeter shooting. Not to mention, dude is a rebounding monster.

I agree with you .. I was never a big fan of Randolph, but if we're able to get him for only Thomas and Mobley, then I don't see a problem with thedeal .. We'll see what happens ..

^I have no problem with this trade...though i prefer trading Ricky.

Also, I rather give Z-Bo the ball in the post rather than TT. We'll be stacked down low, but we'll be short at the 2-3 spot, unless we play Z-BO at 3.

God, I hope we buy out Tim Thomas.

Tim Thomas played his best ball under D'Antoni though.

Well, to be fair. That was a contract year, and Amare/Nash caused a lot of double teams. Most of Thomas' shots were wide open looks. TheKnicks don't have a presence inside to cause the same double team help that's required for Amare.

Knicks have the money, and I expect Thomas to leave.

Agreed. Thomas and Mobley is a pretty nominal price to pay for Randolph, so I can live with it. Plus, Clips have been having trouble scoringthis season and there's really no question that Randolph can score. I see this paying pretty immediate dividents.

Clippers Acquire Randolph
http://basketball.realgm....lippers_acquire_randolph/

win-win for both teams

 

[citybythesea]

I wouldn't have supported this trade before the season started, but TT is trash and Zbo has been beasting...Cat has been decent though, but I likeE-Go at the 2 better.

Welcome to the Eric Gordon era

 

[daprescription]

$34 Million between Camby/Kaman/Randolph

Hell naw bigs like Kaman are hard to come by and Camby is aging.

 

[citybythesea]

After watching the 1st quarter, I knew we shoulda traded Ricky Davis instead of CAT.

I can't stand Ricky jacking up shots

 

[rfx45]

And I thought Gasol & Bynum are good, I think Kaman & Camby & Randolph will be much better.
Now it up to the supporting roles and coach to get this team to mesh together.

Ricky jacking up shots>Trash Thomas jacking up shots

CAT's fiesty D will be missed but his "Lance Bass" swag won't.

co-sign!

ZBO/Camby/Kaman will be easier on the eye that's for sure.
