Joe (Upland (Ca)): Nicolas Batum was traded by Houston to Portland in exchange for the rights to Darrell Arthur and one of Portland’s early second round picks.

(ESPN)

NO WAY. You steal the guy, then trade him? Hou must be after walker/Chalmers.

JR! nice pick. the guy is sweet.

10:06 PM: RUMOR: Bill Self says that when Darrell Arthur was tested for a kidney issue at Kansas there wasn't a problem with the results.

10:01 PM: RUMOR: There have been reports that Darrell Arthur has an undisclosed kidney ailment and Ric Bucher is reporting that it has hurt his stock value. (REAL GM)

He started shooting the jumper at the end of the year and made 42% of his jumpers better than most people on the team. He has had such great coaching and leadership since he has been a knick. Wonder if he got some coaching if he could improve?

King, Gus did not say that he spoke with Lee tonight. He said Lee is upset about the fact the team does not want him, he indicated that Lee wants to stay a Knick. IMHO opinion, Gus did not look happy about saying it. You can tell he likes Lee.

If Lee is so great and we should be so pissed to see him go, how come he couldn't stop this team from sucking so bad

Jordan, CDR, Walker, Chalmers, White...

Lots of good players left. It's a good thing Isiah threw away the Knicks 2nd rd pick for no reason whatsoever.
If it didn’t work in Phoenix with Nash and Stoutamire... it’s just not a winning formula. It’s an entertaining formula, but not a winning one. - Derek Harper talking about D'Antoni's System

I still don't understand why the Knicks just don't buy one.

Isiah traded this year's 2nd rounder to Portland for their 2nd rounder in 2007. Demetrius Nichols was chosen and then released in the middle of training camp.

They have the Knicks 2010 #1 pick unprotected.
