Here we go: New York trades: C Kurt Thomas (11.7 ppg, 9.1 rpg, 2.0 apg in 33.4 minutes) SF Keith Van Horn (17.0 ppg, 7.3 rpg, 1.6 apg in 34.3 minutes) C Michael Doleac (4.4 ppg, 3.7 rpg, 0.5 apg in 13.5 minutes) New York receives: SF Rasheed Wallace (17.0 ppg, 6.6 rpg, 2.7 apg in 38.5 minutes) SF Qyntel Woods (4.6 ppg, 3.3 rpg, 0.9 apg in 13.9 minutes) Change in team outlook: -11.5 ppg, -10.2 rpg, and -0.5 apg.
Portland trades: SF Rasheed Wallace (17.0 ppg, 6.6 rpg, 2.7 apg in 38.5 minutes) SF Qyntel Woods (4.6 ppg, 3.3 rpg, 0.9 apg in 13.9 minutes) Portland receives: C Kurt Thomas (11.7 ppg, 9.1 rpg, 2.0 apg in 42 games) SF Keith Van Horn (17.0 ppg, 7.3 rpg, 1.6 apg in 36 games) C Michael Doleac (4.4 ppg, 3.7 rpg, 0.5 apg in 35 games) Change in team outlook: +11.5 ppg, +10.2 rpg, and +0.5 apg.
POR also gives us a 1st-round pick in the deal.
TRADE ACCEPTED
Due to New York and Portland being over the cap, the 15% trade rule is invoked. New York and Portland had to be no more than 115% plus $100,000 of the salary given out for the trade to be accepted, which did happen here. This trade satisfies the provisions of the Collective Bargaining Agreement.

We would probably be better off to wait till the offseason to make these moves since these trades would definitely ruin this team's chemistry for now. But we would probably have to do the Sheed trade now since a lot of other teams are going after him. Anyway, these trades give us the new athletic fast-paced team that Isiah wants. Our two major losses would be Houston and Van Horn but we would have a better team overall after the trades. Our bench would not take that much of a hit, while our starting lineup in my opinion would be the same for now, but it would be very good in a couple of years once Curry, Woods, and Crawford are playing at their full potential. Brunson was just a throw-in to make the trade work financially but he actually has had some decent games with the Knicks and I think he would be happy to come back even though he would probably get no playing time or would be cut.
Our lineup would be:
Curry-Mutombo-Trybanski Wallace-Davis Q. Woods- Hardaway J.Crawford-S. Anderson Marbury-Norris-Brunson
