    I hope T-Mac retires. He's half-woman, half douchebag.

    I believe so, they still end up with a pick.

    if this is true quite honestly this is just flat out amazing what Morey has pulled again. I mean seriously getting basically 2 first round picks (hill, 2012) and the right to move up in 2011?

    SIGN ME UP FAX IT ALREADY TO THE NBA OFFICE!!!

    And trading Brian Cook would be the cherry on top, right? :)

    I love this deal because of Harrington, but we should get more in return, such as Robinson or Gallinari.

    I bet we could swap Budinger, Hill, and NY's 2012 1st for a top 3 pick this year (plus other scrubs to make the numbers work). Hill seems to have a lot of potential.

    Isn't Robinson an AI type player? Shoot first, ask questions later, Look at me because I'm 6'0?

    We already have that in Brooks. Don't need another.

    And Gallinari is untouchable, says NY.

    If this trade goes down, lets all pray that the Cavs get Amar'e or Jamison.

    Please, keep LeBron happy in Cleveland. Don't let him go to NY under any circumstances.

    I don't care if NY signs Wade or Bosh, but not both.

    Neither one of those two guys can take the Knicks anywhere.

    But hopefully they don't get anyone. Then the Rockets win forever.

    I'm not sure if people have gotten this far, but i'm sure NY's 2012 draft pick will not even be a lottery pick.

    That team is no doubt going to get some major players this off-season.

    If you check earlier in this thread you'll see the evidence/link.
    You must have A first round pick. Not necessarily your own. So yes swapping 1st rounders in 2011 and then trading the 2012 first rounder is allowed.

    We could wind up with the worse of the two picks if the Knicks' gamble pays off, i.e. T-Mc "recovers" and they score some free-agent players worth their salt. I hope the deal is we swap if the Knicks have the better pick and we totally get their best 2012 #1. ...... Plus their #1 in the second round this year.

    Robinson serves us how? We have enough 6'- guards. And no way was DGallo going anywhere. UNTOUCHABLE!

    T-Mac for Gallo? This isn't NBA Live or NBA 2k10.
