HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!

09:32 PM: RUMOR: Knicks likely to get Ricky Rubio from Minnesota? Yahoo! reports that a deal is being discussed and one league GM said a deal “isn’t 100 percent,” but likely.

I read they see them as Joe Dumars Isiah Thomas. The only hope we have of getting him is if the legal situation affects him. I dont know. Im very dejected.

But I hear the rumor is Nate Robinson and Jordan Hill, but how does that work? Nate isnt signed and would he sign to go to Minnesota? David Lee for Rubio, Brian Cardinal and Craig Smith? Would they take Jeffries too? That I wouldnt mind. But no Curry, no Lebron? Urgh.

we're only missing a PG to run this uptempo system... can you say Rubio? a trade is a brewin' i have a feeling!

all that talk about Walsh talking with Minny before the draft- I bet they were setting this up. Why pick two pgs?

They have worked out some deal or a basic agreement that Rubio comes to NY and we ship something back.

If there wasn't a deal, do you take the 2 BPA with the hope you can trade one?

Wouldn't it have made more sense to take a PG and either Hill or even Curry? Curry & Rubio? PG & Shooter. Perfect.

like i said a while ago, NY is the logical place cuz of his buyout issues... he'll be able to find a corporate sponsor to pay the fare on that buyout in NY most likely... we can offer up Chandler or Lee in a S&T after July 1st.

Walsh and Kahn have already worked out a deal for Lee based on general numbers that Walsh has from Lee's agent. They have to wait until they can announce the S&T & get Lee to buy in. Lee won't block the deal at this point - we probably will have Lee's agent on our side since we can give him 6 years on his deal.

But can Rubio be traded before Dec. 15? I guess if he remains unsigned, that could happen...

game theory- where there is smoke there is fire.

Walsh & Kahn have an idea of what Lee is going to ask for. Perhaps not an exact number, but a range. Once July 1 rolls around, Walsh calls up Lee's agent and says - good news, here is Lee's new contract. BTW, he's going to Minny.

You will see these guys drafted not getting signed to contracts so they can be traded. Once signed- then yes- it is Dec 15th or so.

Minnesota should have set themselves up with those picks....why draft 3 point guards...what was the point of trading ty lawson to denver??? Dumb ****......no explaination.

I'm totally disgusted and I feel Minnesota should be investigated. They are a **** franchise...I'm still mad about them drafting Love when Al is there....and why do they wanna trade Jefferson???

Dumb mofo's...why they gonna do this to these kids careers?

Hey if we benefit, why care?

If I had been Minny, I would have taken Rubio & Hill and been very set. Then take a SG/SF with the later two picks.

They wanted James Johnson with the 3rd pick but the Bulls took him. So they had trade lined up.

The Walsh/Kahn link is significant, and I have been saying from the moment that they took Flynn and Rubio that there was a future trade. Kahn probably knew that Curry would be taken by GS, but that GS might pass on Rubio, or THEY (GS) would use Rubio to trade with us, and and either way we would get Rubio without giving up anything to Minny. By taking Rubio at 5, they give up the larger rookie contract if they trade him to us, and get whatever they are going to get from us.

If anyone can explain why Minny would keep Rubio and Flynn, and how they would use them together, would they please tell me.


By the way, if a sign and trade is involved, could this have been announced today?
