    The Rockets could use another perimeter defender, and they're also deep at the center position. Omer Asik? No way – Asik is way too valuable, and the salary doesn't work. However, third-string center Greg Smith is a possibility. He's got a career 16.2 PER in nearly 1,200 career minutes, finishes at the rim effectively because of his strength and massive hands and is a good percentage rebounder. But is he worth Shumpert? If the Knicks reach that conclusion, Smith would be a good fit.

    You don't give up on a player like Dmo for Shumpert.

    If the Knicks trade Shump for Greg Smith they are officially on Bobcats level of incompetence.

    I don't think that Dolan wants to be seen as sending 2 popular Knicks players to Houston.

    No, they really can't.

    Besides, when Chandler comes back from injury, NYK brass will be faced with the whole D12/Asik situation again.

    Who proposed this! I might consider trading GS + CP if Knicks is really serious.
