A pick coming back would be nice and could help us finish off the TMac for Jeffries trade.

what Mike wants, Mike gets apparently... stupid reason to make a trade this late in the season when it doesn't improve us or net us any future assets... no point but to give MDA some peace of mind like i just said... imagine a coach who would put the best interests of the franchise above his own personal feelings... we might actually have a team that's starting to gel instead of the petty bullcrap.

Thats the beginning and the end of this discussion. We cant even get a damn draft pick? Damn shame.

I hope Nate gets over there and tears shyt up.

WTF, this is akin to letting Nate walk at the end of the season for nothing... this better not go through.

If we cant get a pick, we at least need to get back a prospect like Giddens or Bill Walker. If not, whats the point?

exactly... Nate's so much better than any of those guys it's not even funny... w/o at least a young asset we can use or a future pick, or even some cap relief, this trade does absolutely nothing to help our franchise... it's just to get rid of a thorn in MDA's side... if this trade is made then we really know who's in charge of this team's roster moves.

at least the outlook of the franchise isn't hinging on what don't(s)...as in "what don't the knicks have?"...because we had nothing under isiah other than a capped out mess.

Nate is worth 2M in trade.

Toney Allen is 2.5M

Add in cash or Landry (.5M)

Trade works. Get back a pick and it's a no brainer.

Sheldon Williams +1.2M cash from Boston = Nate Robinson = trade works.

Also don't 1st rounders have monetary value in trade?

Not sure what you see? Seems to be plenty of ways to make it work.

Adding Cash doesn't offset player salaries. You need player salaries to match up, cash is an added bonus not covered in the salary part of a trade. Cash can't just be thrown in to make it fit.

Landry and Nate for Allen doesn't work.

Failed Trade Scenario
Sorry, but this trade does not work.

There were BYC players involved in this trade, so this trade is subject to the BYC provisions of the CBA. Due to New York and Boston being over the cap, the 25% trade rule is invoked. New York and Boston had to be no more than 125% plus $100,000 of the salary given out for the trade to be accepted, which did not happen here (only New York met the condition). This trade does not satisfy the provisions of the Collective Bargaining Agreement.
