Grant Hill to the Knicks is an absolute joke of a move.

We have no need for this guy.

i still think we're targetting him w/the plan of trading Wilson Chandler for Rubio.

Hasn't Walsh learned by now that someone could come swooping in and take Rubio out of his grasp instead of pissing around. It already happened once by his buddy when he couldn't pull the trigger on a deal with Washington. Walsh should be thinking that he has Harrington, Hughes and Gallo still on the roster. Getting Grant Hill is such a BS move. He doesn't need to be waiting to trade Chandler, because if Rubio is what you want then go get him. The team is already stacked at sf and he still has Hughes. The teams deficiencies are at PG.

I think Walsh is pissing aroound unable to get a deal done to bring in the necessary talent. Now if you want garbage talent to get under the cap, then that he can definitely get done. I don't have faith in Walsh to bring in the true talent that he wants.

it could be that Kahn is messing around & demanding more than what Walsh was initially willing to give up too, who knows? the longer the situation plays out in MIN w/Rubio's status then the more positive i become that he becomes a Knick eventually... i think other teams will be scared off by the buyout issues too, but i agree w/u, if Walsh has something in the works to get Rubio using Chandler, then he needs to pull the trigger on it now & stop pissing around... that is if Chandler is the only piece involved in the deal... my assumption is that Kahn is holding onto his card for now & weighing all other offers, but to me Donnie is targetting Grant Hill cuz he plans on using Chandler as a piece to get Rubio... just my personal gut feeling.

what do the Lakers have to offer MIN that would trump an offer of Wilson Chandler? i highly doubt they'd give up Bynum.

& again, none of us even knows if Chandler is in the deal at this point... it's just my guess that he is considering we're targetting Hill who plays pretty much the same role & Donnie is clearly interested in Rubio... like i said if the price was Chandler for Rubio straight up i have to think Donnie would have pulled the trigger already... i think Kahn is probably holding out to see what other kinds of offers he can get.
