This has nothing to do with the tread but I just can't forget Layden offering KT for Bosh straight up...
P.S....Collins make good players look bad...I'm not sure why

Why is it that the Isiah homers or a die hard fan for a certain player says: "Don't believe what you see in the media." when an Isiah rumor comes about, but then they see other rumors for other players they may not like, or Layden or ect... and they attack that? Just wanted to know if anyone else noticed that....
Allanfan, this is no rumor. Scott Layden wanted to draft Bosh. Frank Layden went on the radio on draft day and said that. Bosh, Lampe and Sweetney were the guys they really liked. I remember that interview clearly. Frank said that Grunfeld does not want to stay at 7 and was "calling" the Knicks to trade up to get Bosh. Grunfeld wanted KT on draft day for Bosh and cash. Layden felt it was too risky. He liked the guy but was too scare to take a good chance on giving up KT. BTW, Layden came on the fan and told Russo that while he liked Bosh, what the RAptors wanted (KT) was too much. And he was happy with Sweetney. Knick fans were more thrill that Lampe fell to them in the 2nd round.
