I think Hill will be a great addition. It seems the theme of this season is to upgrade our d. We drafted two defensive players. We just signed one of the best defensive bigs in the league. We added a defensive minded asst coach. Grant Hill will fit this trend well. He's a smart, respected veteran who can mentor our younger players. He handles the ball and passes well.

wish we could get Hill, but he re-signed with the Suns.

Yeah, we were supposedly his first choice, but only at 6+ mill. Once that door closed with the Chandler move, he clearly chose the best green bucket and signed with the Suns for a 1-year 6.5 mill. I guess competing for a championship isn't that important to him anymore.

The deal became a three team trade:

Knicks trades are complete. It's a 3-team deal w/Dallas and Washington. NY sends Turiaf, 2013 2nd-rd pick and cash to Wizards.

Acquire OJ Mayo.

Pretty sure Mayo's agent doesn't want him coming off the bench in a contract year.
