why are we so eager to move our young sf who has proven he can be a consistent scoring threat while doubling as the teams best wing and post defender instead of the rooster who along with maybe having Bird's outside shot also has Bird's back circa 91?

Because that's the one with value right now.

they're saving gallinari for the inevitable bosh deal

gallo + hill + lee (or #1) for bosh...

the 6th pick in last years draft has no value?

I highly diagree about where the value is. the rooster is a near 7ft euro with a jumpshot, they are to GM's what impalas are to los angeles.

If Gallinari has Bird's back circa 91, who would give us anything for him? Chandler has value.
I just hope that people will like me

the same reason Colangelo gave Q a 6 yr 48 mill uninsured deal, he is young and "curable" at the moment

trade potential for potential.

in order to get Rubio i think u'd have to give up Chandler, he's the more proven talent... Gallo has been injury plagued & so far hasn't proven himself to the extent that taking him w/the #6 was worth it yet (but he still has time to do so)... Rubio's value is higher than Gallo at this point... i don't think there's a single person here who's "eager" to trade Wilson Chandler... he's my favorite Knick at this point... but you gotta give value to get value, & IMHO Rubio would be an ideal fit to run this system & this team for the next decade (if he comes close to living up to the hype obviously)

Chandler is just the more proven piece...nobody here wants to trade him....but something is gonna have to give eventually....Gallo, Harrington for now and Wilson...all 3 guys play the same spots. Chandler could take the next step and I predict Gallo will definately be a factor this year.

I'm not saying Gallo has no value, but as you stated, Wilson has proven himself this year. Gallo has shown potential, but after his injury plagued year, there's plenty of question marks. I'm a fan of the Gallo pick, but I think it's very understandable why teams would want Chandler and not Gallo.

Rubio has no body of work to justify giving up Chandler.

Gallo has the game against the Hawks. Rubio has the 20 minutes in the Olympics.

If its a must NY gets Rubio, that is a fair exchange.

Who here is so eager to move him though? I know King1 and a couple of others aren't so fond of him, but I get the feeling that most of us want him to stay. I personally don't really want to move either of them at the moment.

However, nobody on the team is untradeable, so if it gets us something important in return, I'd give up both of them.

Rubio has a LARGE body of work!!............ He is playing PRO ball since 14 y/o!!

He has more highlights then Chandler ever will.....

Would love to keep Chandler but if he brings us Rubio he has to go!!

Youtube Rubio and take a look he is a cant miss player!!

Superstar BTW!!!

we don't know what teams want. All that is reported is what Walsh offered Chandler. Do teams really not want Gallo or is he untouchable per D' Altnoi. If the latter is the case, why

Rubio is an 18 yo PG w/some exciting skills & huge potential... Gallo plays a wing position, something that is eminently more attainable in the NBA... & as great as Chandler looked last season his value is not as high as Rubio at the present moment... obviously if Rubio comes out & struggles his rookie season his value will diminish somewhat, but not by much.

If you trade Gallo now, you are getting equal value. You are getting a questionable vet or an injured youngster. You'd be better off keeping him and healing him on your own, wait until he proves he can play and then keep him or trade him. It's bad business to trade a guy when his value is at it's lowest.

if walsh got a questionable vet or an injured yungster for Gallo then we'll know where Isiah acquired his negotiating skills from.

Gallo still has the next Dirk thing you can sell. Find a GM that believes in him enough, which isn't hard to do with Euro big men, and they will have their med staff deem his back injury curable and Walsh should be able to rape in a trade centered around Gallo.

Walsh is obviously high on Gallo otherwise he wouldn't have taken him at #6 last year to begin with, why would he trade him now?... & who's to say Kahn is even interested in Gallo? 1 man's garbage is another man's treasure... Walsh isn't going to trade Gallo now until he sees if his faith in him has been justified or not, unless some superstar player becomes available & Gallo is 1 of the requested pieces in the trade by the other team.
