    Al can't defend a tree. Any way they could give Duhon (could be a good third string and fill in for Lowry during this injury) instead of Harrington? And take Jefferies out? Maybe throw in Darko?

    How is that "unlikely". Knicks have a great shot at signing a star!

    Sounds like a deal we should take Hughes/Harrington and swing him for someone else before all is said and done.

    Jordan Hill could very well turn into a center... 7-2 wingspan...

    I feel like Scola will be gone as well. Because if we get Hill, as much as I love Luis, he is useless

    This trade would suck.

    I'm embarrassed about how illiterate the above statement made me look. :grin:

    Duhon is awful... I'll take a 20PPG expiring any and everyday over that overpaid trash...

    Yeah, but they suck, so yes...

    "unlikely" is the correct word choice.

    Would love to our hands on Gallinari! He's the type of deadly shooter we need! I'm assuming he's untouchable from the Knicks perspective though... but never underestimate the power of MOREY! :cool:

    I believe this is a good trade for Houston, because we don't give up any of our current rotation players. (But maybe we could add Ariza.) ;)

    Duhon expires. He is probably a better backup PG than Garrett Temple, and would be DNP once Lowry returns.

    Besides I don't really see where Al fits with Scola/Landry at the 4.

    it's tough for morey, i know this. he's doing the best he can with what he's got but it's not good enough. we arent going to sign any big free agents, we arent drafting any franchise players, and we're stuck with nothing but a bunch of skilled role players. but you cant magically get superstars or get lucky enough to draft great players.... but every year it's the same thing "gathering assets, hoping to make a move." it's tiring as a fan. it's even more tiring listening to delusional fans regurgitating the same nonsense as well.

    Can't Take Jeffries or Hill out of the NY/T-Mac trade IMO...
