Knicks trade:

Dickau: $3mm / 1 year remaining
Jones: $3mm / 1 year remaining
Jefferies: $5.6mm / 4 years remaining

2007/8 Salary = 12mm
Total Salary = 28.4mm


TWolves trade:

Juwan Howard: $6.8mm / 2 year remaining
Trenton Hassell: $4.3mm / 3 year remaining


2007/8 Salary = 11.1mm
Total Salary = 26.5mm

Why for Knicks? the JJ2 experience has been a bad one. Howard offers us a mid range shooter for the bench. Hassell gives us a tough minded defender off the bench. His salary is steep, but certainly better than JJ's. Most importantly, its a 3 for 2 deal, opening up a spot for DNic.

Why for TWolves? Howard is officially on the trading block. Perhaps they believe that with more playing time & getting back to midwwest, JJ could offer more in the long run. Hassell has no future there. And they get 2 expiring deals.

1000 times no. i don’t want howard taking minutes form balkman or chandler. did you see him in the playoffs last year? less than useless. and hassell for 3 years??? gross.

just buy out our guys that we need to and move on.

I agree with Marv, its better to just buy out a player. No thanks to Howard, Hassel is a nice defender but 3 years is too much.

This trade you suggested DOES NOT clear up a roster spot for Nichols. We have 16 guaranteed contracts with Chandler and 17 if we sign Nichols. The trade would have to be a 3 for 1 deal not 3 for 2.

I rather just buy out Dickau and Jones. I got to watch Jones play alot last year when he was in Toronto and well based on just last season, he blows, isnt the shooter or defender he's made out to be and he's too small to play shooting guard.

Artest - not if it includes Lee or Balk though. How about:

Chandler (1mm), Jefferies (5.7mm * 4), Nate (1mm) & Dickau/Jones (3mm each) = 14.7mm '07 salary, 28.2 overall salary

for

Artest (7.2mm), Garcia (1.4) & Salmons (5.1mm * 4) = 13.7mm '07 salary, 29 overall salary

how does that help the roster glut situation? we need to make a 3 for 1 type deal.

5-3 = 2

I think his trade gets you the same result.

That sounds like a prediction. When will this happen? By the beginning of the season?

jimimoui comes with the goods.

"James claims that after being released by the Kings, he was given a garbage bag to clean out his locker. Following the Sonics' playoff series win against Sacramento in the 2004-05 season, he paraded around the court with a trash bag tied to his neck."

fellas, here's my guarantee for the '07-'08 season, otherwise known as "the year of the big game.": after the knicks’ 1st round playoff victory you will see this sight in a knicks uni. and ye shall rejoice.
