Landry is a good deal undersized, but he's a hard nosed guy who will keep people off the boards. I'd like to have him, but my first choice is to get a bigger guy who is more of a defensive enforcer

It's not so much about size as it is about effectiveness. We've got plenty of size on the bench, but very little effectiveness. If you add a guy like Carl to the team he brings some solid production that would help keep our leads when the starters hit the bench. Yes we need D, but we are also an offensive team and when we fail to score during those dry spells with the bench players in there it's a big part of the problem.

If he put 16-6 with Houston two years ago in 27 minutes shooting 55% he can do that here. We have defensive big guys we can spot--to keep the 4-1 set and to play two bigs at a time--this is the type of player that makes sense. We have defensive spotters--this guy lets you keep the pedal on the floor.

Here's my Knick / SacTown trade.

Landry and Dalembert for Curry, Turiaf and Randolph (works in trade checker).

SacTown gets cash flow relief because I believe Curry's deal is already paid off (not certain). They also get a back-up center that may be a better role model for Cousins and they get potential in Randolph.

For the Knicks both incoming players are expiring. Dalembert would take both Turiaf and Moz minutes and compliment Amare nicely. Landry would provide Amare and our front line a break and Landry could play Amare's high=post position very well.

Both these players would make us instantly better and contenders in the East.

This is the best trade i have heard in a very long time..'I Like"
