    I'd be interested in Al Harrington or Wilson Chandler. Other than that, no.


    I really want the Rockets to deal with Chicago somehow. Brad Miller needs to be on this team.

    Here are the Knick's salaries

    They have a lot of expiring contracts, it might be beneficial for Morey to break Tmac's $23 million dollar albatross into 2 more workable contracts....

    The Knicks actually might be interesting for both parties....TMac and the Rockets.

    So far so good, Alan

    Alan, those are not high end young players and you are not saving Rockets any money.

    Get this Tmac is an EXPIRING contract. Show us some picks, then we are talking.

    But would the Knicks? That only saves them $1 million in this year's salary and $2 million for next year.

    Good point. No rush to trade him now. He just got a lot cheaper.

    I don't care what else they offer with Curry, if he is involved I don't want it.

    I prefer to see if something more savory pops up around the trade deadline.

    Be patient people, it's still only November.

    I agree with this, but the problem will build significantly with Tracy feeling he is healthy and has something to prove.

    If Adelman thinks he is not ready, and Tmac thinks he is...(which is where w are now) then this will get a lot worse......

    That's a good point. I am very interested on how things will develop over the next couple weeks. Either someone is exaggerating/making stuff up or someone is trying to cover up what really happened. Eventually the truth is bound to come out.

    IMO, see what happens with Monday with the MRI and we'll start seeing the truth of the matter. No point on rushing to do a mediocre trade just yet.

    David Lee, Wilson Chandler, and Al Harrington sounds nice but... we need a go to guy in the clutch and neither one of them is.

    True, that might be asking too much when I just looked at the numbers. Take out Chandler in the deal.

    Marcus Landry anyone? :grin:

    Hell no.

    Don't believe what Knicks hacks(errrr sports columists) put in writings, it's not a secret anymore that they do not have anything that we may want.
    Hey - Knuckle heads - if Curry is so good, you better keep him.

    On a side note, it feels great to know that there are so many Knicks haters like me on this board.

    Sure,it can and I'm realistic to realize that we won't get much for him,but it's no use to take back junk just to get rid of him at all costs,which you have been advocating.
    I would rather let him expire than do that.

    Maybe the Rockets can involve a third team to get a deal worth taking.

    Just pray the Hornets keep losing and then offer a Tmac for Okafor deal.

    I would take Curry off their hands in a heart beat if it meant getting thier upcoming draft pick. Unfortunately the j*zz have it so I would say heck no to any trade with the Knicks, since they will be forcing us to take on Curry's contract.
