Well this is only a rumor so I won't get all crazy on Isiah about who he might send away. The idea of trying to move up would only make sense if you have a specific guy targeted that you believe you'll stand a great chance of getting at that pick. With NJ just a pick ahead at 17, I don't see the great advantage if the guy he wants is S. Williams. It would seem that NJ has interest in taking him there.

Who knows what the truth is. These draft rumors are often unfounded.

Honestly I think and hope its a bogus rumor.

Why on earth would we do that deal, Williams is such a question mark we don't need to take on an awful deal, you want marcus williams, trade nate to seatle for the first pick in the second round, which they would do in a heartbeat.

I think Frye sucks but I am not moving him in that deal. I think we have to hang onto the guy and bring him off the bench, hopefully isiah isn't dumb enough to start him, build some value and then move him with a bad contract for something serviceable.

If not Sean Williams, maybe Isiah wants to move up for a Euro like Fernandez (and that's why he's willing to give up Mardy?)

Trade Frye, James, QRich, Nate to Warriors for Adonal Foyle, Sarunas Jasikevicius & Stephen Jackson + #18 pick.
Why for Warriors: unload a year of Foyle's contract (vs. James), dump Jackson's attitude (in exchange for QRich)& get a young shooter in Frye which is perfect for that system.

Why for Knicks: Frye not working out here, Jackson is a character risk but a better player than QRich, Jasikevicius is a nice guy to have off the bench. Then draft Sean Williams or if not there > McRoberts at 18, then best available shooting guard at 23 (Almond, Bellinini). Buy out Francis or tell him to stay home a la Bulls/Tim Thomas.

Lineup:

C- Curry, Morris, Foyle
PF- Lee, Williams or McRoberts, Rose
SF- Jackson, Balkman, Jefferies
SG- Crawford, Almond, (Jackson can play here as well)
PG- Marbury, Collins, Jasikevicius

GS would be the perfect place for Frye to succeed along with PHX.

I would trade Jamal, Frye, Nate, Jeffries for Foyle, Jackson, Biedrins and the 18th pick.

Nelly would absolutely love this trade. All players coming from us would be perfect for his system.
