Why do people want to sacrifice valuable assets to move up in the weakest draft since 2000? We'd essentially be moving up in the draft for a role players.
if T-mac do not go away from Houston, I think that he will offer great energy in next season. Everyone must trust, because T-mac is never fall down.He is waiting for one chance to get his grea t glory.red
Keep Tmac until the trade deadline. If He fails to show up in games ( both physically and mentally ) then ship him to the highest bidder by February 2010.
How does it suck? If you keep the #8 pick and we do get Stephon Curry (Projected to go at 8) then we have 3 point guards. We obtain David Lee which is a better PF than both Scola or Landy. We would have 3 PF's Curry spells backup center at 15-18 minutes. He is a very capable BACKUP (not starting role which he was on the Knicks) You have to trade a PF and PG to make space. Suns is the perfect team for this. They get a young fast PG in Brooks ( Who is a SG more than a PG anyways. Think of the Lakers Playoffs where Brooks had more turnovers than assist in the WHOLE series (19 Turnovers) . Nash would at least average 9 assist a game for us. Landry might be a exciting power guys but he is undersized and he finally showed his older self in the playoffs. #8 pick is a guess in one of the most least talented drafts in the decade. 2nd round pick in 2010? Wash. Basically your giving up: T-Lady, Brooks, Landry, #8, 2nd round 2010 for Steve Nash, David Lee, Eddie Curry. ( Fills most of our needs > PG, backup center, Rebounder (Davide Lee was 2nd in Double Doubles in the League) Not to mention that we can sign Artest and have Scola coming off the bench.
Good post! The NY fans are a different breed. They will tear him to pieces if he pulls the same puerile stuff there. I am really surprised how nice, patient and tolerating are the Houston fans.
Curry could turn into the next JJ Reddick. I'm not really interested in the #8 in THIS draft. Whoever we get is not starting this season. That brings us to David Lee. Solid rebounder... but then again he's on a front court with Wilson Chandler and Al Harrington so someone has to get the rebounds. I'm not really impressed with his offense at all. Probably a little bit better than Scola. People need to stop looking at the PPG and realize he's on a Knicks team with essentially no talent. Nate Robinson averaged 17 a game, Al Harrington had his best season by about 5ppg on that team. I suppose we improve the bench because Scola would replace Landry there... but I'd rather add another wing guy (Al Harrington).
Maybe. Maybe no. Word on Rockets Street is that we've been talking (centered mostly around McGrady for Harrington and Curry) to the Knicks for about a month now.
The Knicks have a bunch of overpaid players that would not fit on our roster or any other roster because a lot of them are lazy, past their prime, or never had any game to begin with. David Lee and Lil Nate are the only players of value on that team and I doubt they will throw those players in a Tmac trade. I would rather just hold on to Tmac and his huge contract and let it expire after next year in time for the 2010 big free agent off-season. Trading with the Knicks would only help out the Knicks in unloading a lot of bad contracts and I don't think Daryl Morey would do that. The Knicks have been a joke of a franchise since Pat Riley and JVG left. Let them stay that way.
harrington at SF would make us a championship team... he's long he'd be above average height at the SF position, but can def play the position he's a flat out scorer he can create his own shot great 3-point shooter sigh... most likely not going to happen, but i can dream...
The Knicks do Curry,Harrington for Tmac straight up. Harrington isn't a part of their future, he's gone in 2010. They really want to get rid of Curry's contract. Houston is one of the few teams willing to deal such a big expiring to make it work. If we want that deal, we could do it. We could probably get better actually. The only question is can he play SF effectively. If you believe he can, its a no brainer. Move Artest to the 2... and we've solved our wing problem. Now our worse position is PG again, but with Brooks and Lowry rather than Alston and John Lucas 3, I'm fine with that position.
Hold up a second. Can someone link me to the site that says Rockets and Al Harrington in the same paragraph. I have never seen such a thing. Or is this just propaganda created by the board?????
We do not need any wing player, we need a true SG, a player like Wafer but much better, we have enough SFs if Artest re-signed.
the only NY Knick I covet is David Lee but I don't think getting him is an option or a real possibility. you'd probably have to let Scola go to see D Lee in a Rockets uni...
