I don't think its a good trade for reasons other people stated but also harpring played for LB in philly for one season and it didn't work out well. The trade is NOT happening.

that's a good point, but that doesnt mean at all that Crawford isn't being moved, if not in that deal, then to someone else...
DLee is the best thing to happen to NY in Isiah's 4 year tenure. And that alone, though a positive on the radar, is sad as hell.

This trade is risky at best. And Bobs is making the argument quite poorly. Harpring's long-term value for the Knicks is 0. And his short-term value is irrelevant. But, that's fine. He could be the worst player in the NBA and the positives of the trade stay the same - potential cap space in 2007. But, even that DEPENDS on follow-up moves which may or may not be doable.

The only way to get meaningful cap space is with follow-up trades dumping Malik Rose and Mike Sweetney - giving us roughly 14 mil to work with as a starting salary and an offer as large as 90 mil over 5 years. That makes things interesting with the grab bag including Lebron and Wade.

And the speculation about Crawford's role under Larry Brown is not convincing. Crawford is a potential all-star and, if he can reign his game in, he may be able to get it done under Larry. Bottom line -you need to get atleast equal long-term value or heavy cap space. Anything else would be squandering an asset.
Sh-t in the popcorn to go with sh-t on the court. Its a theme show like Medieval times.

WHAT IS THIS B.S. that Chad Ford wrote about a possible trade of Crawff for Miles???? Do we really want Miles in N.Y???? Derick Anderson is a much better player than Miles...If we are going to swop Crawfford, we will still have a need at the SG position. Therefore, it would be best to trade Crawff and a maybe Rose or another PF to Portland for Derick Anderson and Przbyla...

Ask yourself:


Would the Blazers trade their starting center to appease the Knicks?
