    The Knicks seemingly have no players we would want, but they have some decent young talent---nothing earth-shaking---but Morey and Adelman have made something of such players.

    TMac + Dorsey + JTaylor for Curry (ugh), David Lee, Gallinari? Then flip some of these acquisitions for players we want or need (Bosh? Kevin Martin?)

    And if that player is Bosh, and he intends to re-sign with us, the Knicks would have to understand that and make a play next summer for Stoudemire to go along with LeBron.

    Wherever Tmac might go, such a deal has probably been struck months ago but must wait until a specific date before it is consummated.

    Although it is New York, I have a hard time believing they could be that stupid. I'd be all for it though. :cool:

    Curry doesn't like to rebound or play any defense which completely negates his offensive skills. Darko is inconsistent and lazy despite having some decent defensive skills.
    They go against your argument of wanting hardworking team oriented players.

    Darko would threaten to rape everyone's kids, i don't want him on the Rockets.

    Curry has lost weight but he might jack off too many people..

    I'm all for trading any player if it brings in young talent, maintains cap flixibility, or puts the team in better position to make a run at a free agent. Dealing with the knicks does none of that. Now if the knicks want to give up lee,and harrington, I would do it even though lee is a ufa at the end of the yr. If they say no to le and wants to give up darko, then chandler has to be involved. If they insist on curry so they can clear space,,curry,darko,and chandler has to be the deal.

    Al Harrington is ok, but no place for him on this team really.
    Wilson Chandler is ok, but I want to get a better young piece than him.
    New York only fits because were desperate.

    Desperation leads to poor outcomes. You are spot on W.Chandler and Al Harrington too.

    I can see it.

    Darko gets into foul trouble 5 minutes into the game.

    "screw you refs iw ill screw your mum and your children screw u"

    Darko heads to the bench and rips his shirt open, Eddy Curry mutters "impressive, here i want to show you something"




    Eddy Curry's contract is suicide, there is no logical reason for the Rockets to do a deal involving Curry, especially since so important players needs to be resigned.

    Mobely, 80% of salary paid by insurance
    Darko, expiring + collecting DNPs
    2011 1st round draft pick
    +
    Gallinari
    or
    if 3rd team involved, whoever they want.


    If the Knick think they can dump Curry's salary on the Rockets because of the tax...

    OKC are $9M under
    Kings are $4M under

    Come mid-January the Rockets can package Cook with $3M and one of those teams will make over $1M of cash profit.

    don't want to trade with the knicks, don't want anyone except that italian kid they drafted. even then we'd have to take on one of isiah's mistakes. no way. we're not trading with NY.

    WHY! The hell do these knick things keep popping up? Nobody wants any of those scumbags other than David Lee, or maybe the super-sub. Stupid New Yorkers. They need to stick to their stankees and just stop lusting over McGrady.

    Go Rockets
    Go Astros
    Go Texans

    I'll take David Lee, Mobley's contract, filler, and a 1st rounder. Nothing less.

    I knew this would come up and pretty much would be ok with certain scenrios but Curry's contract is the posion pill. I don't know about another year of Curry even if he has played ok since coming back. I think eventually the Knicks will be the trade partner just don't know who would be coming back that fits us best. :confused:
