-O.J. Mayo will conduct another workout on Saturday for select NBA teams in Chicago. Those who are invited according to one report we received are only the four big market teams in the top 7—Chicago, Miami, New York and Los Angeles. Mayo continues to snub teams ranked three through five-- Minnesota, Seattle and Memphis, it appears. Speaking of Memphis, Kevin Love reportedly had a very strong workout there this past week. He looks like a solid candidate to be drafted fifth overall at this point.

Mayo wants to be a Knick!!! Yeah baby!!!

trade up for this kid.

Mayo coming here is a very real possibility. Minny already has a combo guard in Foye and McCants looked solid last season, so SG is not their primary concern. I know they want Lopez but have to realize that they cannot draft him at 3. We send them Nate, Balkman, #6, and cash for #3 pick.

if they have combo guards, why would they want nate?

i think the only way you get to 3 is by trading 6 and lee.

For the chance of getting Mayo or Beasley, you have to pull the trigger and move Lee.

why are so many of you ready to dump Lee to move up a few spots? He has shown in a short time that he is a double/double and this past season showed some improved shooting. He leaves his heart on the floor, great attitude, wonderful athlete and will get stronger defensively. Put him in the draft and how high would go? Has he proved nothing? is there any question that he's a 10+ year player?

If you can get a star out of this deal I think you have to do it. Mayo and Beasley just have way higher ceiling than Lee. Thats not to say Lee isn't a good player he is a good player to have on the team but the Knicks need stars which they are lacking in and Mayo and Beasley just might be the stars that they need. You deal Lee only if it nets the Knicks a star and that is the only reason to do so.

I got to believe that in this yrs draft, there will be swapped picks .

Rememeber the Ray Allen Stephon Marbury swap minnesota and Milwaulee
JAMES DOLAN on Isiah : He's a good friend of mine and of the organization and I will continue to solicit his views. He will always have strong ties to me and the team.

You might be right but I would hate to give up Lee. If we have to, we have to, but that is going to hurt. However, the complete game that Mayo will bring is probably worth it.
