    Just heard on the News that Daryl Morey was arrested around noon today. He has been charged with multiple counts of Trade Rape. Morey could be seen smirking as he was put into a police car while Donny Walsh watched, violated, in tears.

    Hilton Armstrong is a rocket as well. So we got a starting 2, a backup C in one deal. KA trade!!

    Did I hear Nuno right? Thought he said someone else in the rotation was traded in another deal that can't be reported yet

    Not likely, the Knicks are going to get someone good and all they have to do is make the easy to make playoffs in the east and there goes your lottery pick.

    This is truly amazing...Morey has destroyed Walsh and it isn't even funny. We go from being a smallish team to a squad with size and versatility.

    The Rockets will now make the playoffs this season and be set up either for a bright future and/or a MAJOR splash this offseason.

    [FONT=Century Gothic]I used to love watching Hilton Armstrong in 'Nawlins. He is like the cherry on top, but is also being added to a handful of cherries already sitting up there. Morey has created a 5-star dessert.[/FONT]

    Basically that if the knicks aren't picking 1st in 2011's draft...it goes to the rockets....if the knicks aren't picking in the top 5 in 2012...it goes to the rockets

    It means that if the Knicks 2011 pick is the 1st in the draft then the Rockets will not have the option to swap. They will likely have that option down the road.

    same scenario for 2012

    That trade is BETTER....still don't like it. You had to get a big to replace Landry out of the deal. Lucky for Morey, New York Knicks are stupid enough to give up the farm for the fallacy of them thinking they can get top tier FAs this summer.

    DUDE, I'm sorry to have to break it to you, but there is no way in hell that The Knicks don't get a combination of these players next season:


    Lebron James
    Dwyane Wade
    Chris Bosh
    Amare' Stoudemire
    Carlos Boozer

    Then you look at the older vets that they can sign at a bargain price:

    Jermaine O'Neal
    Tracy McGrady
    Allen Iverson
    Ray Allen


    I mean, I'm sorry but The Knicks are sitting in the fabled "Cat-Bird Seat" right now :)

    You don't really have any idea of what you are talking about.

    Brain lapse, the Rockets will have the rights to swap picks because teams can't trade consecutive first rounders.

    Morey robs two teams.

    Now, only if Knicks fail to pick up anyone this off-season, and resort to sign T-mac to a max deal :grin:

    If true, my guess would be Battier for an expiring to off-set the Jeffries contract.

    I'm listening now to see if he says what I thought I heard. Could have sworn he said a rotation player. I don't know
