Curry's listed at 95 pounds Earl on http://www.nbu.com/playerfile/eddy_curry/index.html...he needs to bulk up obviously!

It was all a joke. There is no nba.com link that says that Eddy weighs 95 pounds. So I made up the nbu.com!

Just found out about the trade. I honestly didn't think Isiah could completely screw the pooch this year. I figured at worst, he would reach for someone and pass on Almond. Actually he did do that. But Zach Randolph?!?

What was the point when you already have Curry? Isiah still doesn't understand that it's not just a matter of collecting player but players that fit and complement one another. Not only don't they complement one another but they mirror each others games. Unbelievably stupid.

And so much for the whole, we're looking to get our cap down so we can be a player in the free agent market in a couple of years BS.

This roster is a ticking time bomb. Lee must be completely confused and will have to fight for every minute he can get. Marbury is about 6 months from demanding a contract extension. Randolph needed to go to a team with solid veteran leadership, here in NY he's primed to blow up with their leadership void. Curry is going to have to deal with playing with someone who wants to do the same things he does on offense, which is the only place where he has any worth.

This move is just so mindnumbingly stupid. Or in this case it's just Isiah repeating the same starphucking mistake over and over again.

so we're adding $61 million dollars in salary due to Zach Randolph over the next 4 seasons, & SAS is ranting about how Isiah was able to unload Steve Francis' contract, which is roughly about half contract wise in dollars & length of years???

then we throw in Channing Frye to get back 2 expiring contracts of Fred Jones & Dan Dickau, 2 young players who haven't done much of anything in the NBA since they were drafted themselves.

sorry if i don't jump up & down over this one... i would have much preferred to simply buy out Steve Francis & trade Frye in a deal to get Ron Artest... at least his deal expires the same season as Marbs, & he'd actually add a dimension to this team that we NEED.

oh brother... Zach Randolph is now a NY Knick... the 1 guy i would have thought Isiah would not be crazy enough to trade for, & he goes & does it.

Stole the words from my brain.

Dude cap room doesnt win games. We need a power forward with a jump shot a couple of steps inside the three point line, a rebounder, and a secondary post threat to Curry. That is exactly what we got. You have to be insane to not like this trade. If you are still cheering for cap room then go get another freaking team to follow. Only completely delusional people are still hoping that we are going to start clearing for cap. GIVE IT UP. This is a good move, we now have THE front court of the east.

Curry
Randolf
Lee
Crawford
Marbury

Lets go.

Listen guys, who else in the league as a DOUBLE POST PRESENCE other than the NEW YORK KNICKS !! You must who to defend !!! CURRY left block, ZACK right block with Morris Almond and H2O shooting the 3 ball !!! Balkman, Lee and Morris running the floor and Steph running the ship

basically frye for randolph...im not estatic but its not too bad. Its not as if frye was playing any defense anyway.

i dont know why everyone hates this trade?? Im really dissapointed we didnt get webster as well, but we did get a guy who is 26 and avg 20 and 10. We only lost frye and francis, so everyone should calm down and relax.

Steven A. Smith is praising it because we got rid of Francis contract

yes randolph's contract is longer, but he's a 20-10 guy and is only 26 years old, compared to francis who is an old bum now

Stephen A Smith and all of ESPN loves this trade as do i !!!!!!!!

We got rid of one of the very worst contracts in the NBA. What did anyone expect to get in return for Stevie Screwup?

I'm w/ Spike and ESPN. Good trade. We still to make more moves, don't like the team the way it is today, but I think this improves our talent level by a lot and puts us in a stronger position.

Sorry, I think this trade is a steal, not that I would expect most here to like it. It's not as if 25 year old PF's that put up 23 and 10 and have a real post game and outside shot are a dime a dozen...

This is not the same as Francis because Francis was older and damaged goods, physically (although I admit I didn't know it). Randolph is 25 years old and we were stuck with Francis for 2 years contributing NOTHING and taking tremendous cap space. Frye made a step backwards this year (and I was supportive...ask dj sju) while Lee moved forward. Now, Lee can be super 6th man, while Zach mans the post.
