    Just a quick opinion poll,

    Would you do this.......

    Do the Glen Rice deal knowing that Rice would never play another game if NY sweetened the pot by exchanging Camby ($6.25 mil) for Cato ($6.05 mil)???

    Ummmm, let me think about that Yes! :rolleyes:


    Question...

    As Hill was part of the deal for Rice and now Hill is lost, shouldn't the Rocks require another pick from Dallas?

    At this point we could end up with 1st rounders from both teams.....

    Thoughts????

    The Knicks would rather keep Rice.

    marcus Camby is gonna have a stellar season. In the past two or three years, he's put on around 40lbs, he's learned how to rebound consistently, his shotblocking's as good as always, and he's become more active on D and O.


    So, why?


    But if for some strange reason the Knicks ok that idea, i would do it, cause I think our SF rotation is deep enough to do without Rice.

    Darkhorse,

    Yea, well thats kind of where my life is now.......

    All I have left is ridiculous humor - :D

    Yea, sounds good to me....

    basically we would give up a bench fixture and a role player for a bench fixture and a real player.....LOL!!!! Dooooope!


    Okay, kidding aside. With Hill out of the trade the Rocks can't be thrilled with Dallas walking away with all the benifits and not giving something in return.

    I would definately want something from them

    There are always two parts to a deal -- what you give and what you recieve. Why would Knicks get rid of Camby for our garbage (Cato)? It doesn't make sense to me. If I were a Knick fan, I'd be very upset with the deal. It seems a bit one sided.

    Since this thread is wasted anyway, I've been meaning to ask a question.


    What's the most lopsided trade you can ever make where the salaries match?


    Let's see who gets the best.


    I say Walt + KT for Chandler + Curry + Fizer

    Oh, not only for our team, this just came t mind.

    Any ideas?

    1)Cato/Walt for Duncan

    2)Cato/Walt for Kobe

    3)Cato/Walt for Ratliff/Dermarr Johnson

    4)Moochie for Nowitzki/ZhiZhi

    5)Cato/Walt for Miles/Odom/Olowokandi

    6)Cato for Carter/Clark/Peterson

    Okay, I'm tired of playing this game. What do I win? :D
