    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.

    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.

    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.

    Q Rich has player option for 09-10.
