    Yowza.....like Douglas.

    JOSH HARRELLSON

    Full Name: Josh Harrellson
    Position: Forward
    Height/Weight: 6-10 / 275
    Birthdate: February 12, 1989
    College: Kentucky
    DRAFTED BY: New Orleans Hornets Round 2: Pick 45

    ** Traded to New York on Draft night

    Strengths:
    * Huge
    * Good rebounder
    * Has become workout freak
    * Can shoot the face-up jumper with three-point range

    Weaknesses:
    * Not a great athlete
    * Can he guard elite four or five men?
    * Free throw shooting

    NBA projection:

    This season, Harrellson impressed NBA scouts with his work ethic on and off the court. They were particularly intrigued by his rebounding ability, and though he didn't show it, his face-up game. Harrellson could be a pick-and-pop guy in the NBA. There's a chance he sneaks into the second round and ends up on an NBA roster, because as NBA director of scouting Ryan Blake said, "you can't coach big."

    Good job Morey! First "good move" of the offseason, if you leave out draft picks. I like Douglas a lot, and Jordan gives us center #1 on our team so far. #2 if you include Greg Smith.

    ALL ABOARD!

    Turning a nickel into a dime. Can't hate on that.

    LOL @ the guy who suggested we shouldn't sign Lin to an offer sheet because it might "upset one of the most powerful franchises in the league".

    I love the idea of us acquiring multiple 2nd rounders -- Morey has a good history of putting those to good use.

    That's great money for Camby, also further proof that the Knicks don't give a damn about luxury tax.

    very solid move. nicely done...i thought they'd get a 2nd for their troubles. 2 2nds + 1 player for free + maybe another player if they keep him? great job
