His contract expires next year and the sixers are looking to either move Dalembert or this guy to free up their log jam. Anyway we could trade Lee for this guy and a draft pick? Lee and Dalembert on the sixers would be a great tandem and I project this guy to be better than Lee. just a thought...

I don't think this guy will be better than Lee Offensively. Lee can dish, rebound, has a nice J and score with either hand. I don't see nothing special in Speights.
I read somewhere that his D is suspect. He looked good against Lee because Lee can't play D either. So I am not sure I would trade then straight up, but if they throw in their first round pick, it's a no brainer.

Hollinger loves him in terms of efficiency rating though.

His shot selection is questionable? I wish the Knicks had some more questionable 53% shooters!

oohah

Good luck Mike D'Antoni, 'cause you ain't never seen nothing like this before!

I have him on my fantasy team, the kid was eating it up when given minutes or when brand or dalembert was out. He blocks shots, reb, scores inclose, can knock down 18 ft jumpshots.

I like him.

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.
