    Lol i'm not telling Morey how to do his job at all though.

    I'm just saying...You don't think there is another team out there that will take Jeffries+Hughes+Hill+Protected first round pick? A team that is already not a factor in 2010 and can wait a bit and also give Hill some solid PT to see what he is worth? Like Minny, Indy, and a ton of other crappy teams?

    If NYK finds another partner for Jeffries Morey has no leverage at all with the Knicks.

    not sure if this has been posted:

    http://sports.espn.go.com/chicago/nba/news/story?id=4922618

    The Chicago Bulls held guard John Salmons out of Wednesday's game at New York in anticipation of a trade, sources said.

    Salmons' destination could not be immediately confirmed, but the Bulls have made the decision to pull the swingman out of the game against the Knicks because he is going to be traded before Thursday's 3 p.m. deadline.

    ESPNChicago.com has learned that Salmons remained at the team's hotel and did not even accompany the Bulls to the arena.

    Any team willing to take on Salmons has to pay him $5.8 million next season.

    The Bulls have been trying to force teams interested in Tyrus Thomas to include Salmons in the deal. They have also wanted to include him as part of a package for Houston's Tracy McGrady.

    If it comes down to it, I would do the deal even if it was just Jeffries, Hughes, Hill and 2012 first rounder.

    We'll see...as Knicks fans are saying...If it means taking on JJ is also Hill and a protected Pick, other teams will bite.

    Yes Knicks want the expiring, but what they really REALLY want is to get rid of Jeffries. So much so they will throw in extra just to do it.

    I was wondering one thing. There is an article saying that the rockets are thinking about not trading mcgrady... My question is when he worked out in front of the knicks organization was anyone from the rockets in attendance?? The only thing i can think of them saying this is because maybe they were impressed with what they saw?? IDK.. Its going to be hecked

    Ok, now Amare with Wade and Lebron getting enough support, I'm guessing New York will not be able to land 2 out of Lebron Wade and Bosh.
    My guess is the deal is dead...we'll be keeping our beloved queen.
