it would have to be more than qrich+ariza.. if we can get rid of rose or JJ along with qrich in the deal then i wouldnt mind it.

wasn't there a rumor the Nuggets wanted Jerome James earlier this season? i have no idea why they'd want him, but I distinctly remember that.

.

well if they are trading kmart, and letting nene go to FA, they may need another big off the bench. one can only hope.

if Kmart was actually healthy, I would love this trade. and our long term salary commitment would go up, so everyone would be happy.

If Isiah trades for Martin, he is a bigger moron than I thought he was.

You really goint to think its a bad trade if its Q-Rich, Ariza and Mo T for KMart - Watson? What do we lose in that deal? It win-win-win. Ah long-term dollars big freakin deal.
Some men see things as they are and ask why. I dream things that never were and ask why not?

It is a big freaking deal.

06/07 $11,818,182
07/08 $13,000,000
08/09 $14,181,818
09/10 $15,363,636
10/11 $16,545,454 - Player Option and you know he is going to pick it up.

You think its actually good to take on that kind of a contract with the salaries we have right now? Not to mention Martin is basically playing on one freaking leg. Its idiotic.

well, if its qrich+james leaving, the salary difference isnt much worse, and kmart is only 1 yr more than both qrich+james. i just worry about him re-injuring his knee.

IMO, its not idiotic, its a risk. A big risk. If the deal is true, he needs to be checked out thoroughly by the med staff to ensure he has a chance at a full time career. The upside is a great interior defender plays the fast break better then any other pf in the game, and a good backup pg. The downside is a lot of moolah doing nothing on our books for the next 5 years. Qrich is already on our books for that long, and anyone who think were going to let Mo T expire without either resigning or trading him is quite frankly delusional. As I said, how is this a lose situation, provided he is cleared by the meds?

Why would Denver take on James' contract? James is going to be here for a very long time.

Man, it's been my opinion that KMart's really been exposed in Denver. His career was made by JKidd and he's maybe 1/2 the player without him. Plus I'm real concerned about this health. His injuries are sounding chronic and degenerative to me. I would so pass on him.

i'm not saying they would, but who else does denver have if they dont have kmart or nene? all they have left is camby and some elson dude.

yeah, that's a real bad trade for us. His knee has been a problem ever since he got to Denver. Plus, he can't get his own shot, his jumper is a thing of ugliness, and he can't handle the ball at all. He's a good but not great man defender, a decent help defender, an ok shot-blocker, and, when healthy, an above average rebounder.

Even when he's 100% healthy, I don't think he's worth a max contract. Now that he probably can't jump anymore, he won't dunk or be the intimidator that he's known as. I would pay him what McDyess is getting - no more.

A big to this rumor.

Oh I think Frye's got it. Those 30 point games were for real. He needs to be used right and needs to be more consistent. Wouldn't it be a trip if he ended up our 3 a la Rashard Lewis and Lee endds up our 4?????

Yeah, that would be something. I know they're just rookies and I shouldn't expect them to perform NOW. When you're starving and you have some seeds, you sow them. But man, I catch myself yelling at the seedlings going "GROW DAMN IT, GROW!!!!!!!"

We haven't been fed in a while, you know.

Well, trading for a player with possibly the worst active deal in basketball whom I happen to hate with all my guts just might be the final straw to haning in the Knickdom affiliation.
A glimmer of hope maybe?!?
