The Knicks and Grizzlies have completed a trade in which Darko Milicic will be heading to New York for Quentin Richardson. Cash will also be sent to Memphis. now i just want to say to NY why?
Darko does have some skills. I think he'll fit in D'Antoni's system well - no defense and shoot the ball at will. That's a great opportunity for Darko.
Knicks will holds Darko's bird rights in 2010 instead having guaranteed money if they re-sign Lee. I'll guess that they're letting Lee walk or will S&T him now?
Why? Darko can play center, more like insurance if Eddie Curry plays like he did last year which is not at all. Another good move for the Knicks, Q-Rich was long removed from the days he won the 3 point shootout at the ASG.
Reuniting qrich with Darius miles will do wonders for the grizzlies. The return of the fist head bump ftw!
If anything it would've saved Yao some bruises. This guy becomes a hack machine every time he plays Yao.
D'Antoni thinks he can work magic with Darko a la Boris Diaw. It's not like they gave up much in the form of Q. I'm not so sure I wouldn't play Darko over Eddy Curry myself. If anything, this puts pressure on Curry to compete for his job.
