I think it's been a given we're demanding a pick in return for Nate since the start of the rumors.

Who really knows of course but I think that's the case.

It really is all about making the coach comfortable.

And the fact that Nate was not returning next year anyway - so why have him be a headache for us and us a headache for him for the next 30 games especially if we can squeeze a pick out of it?

Sounds like a very good strategy to me.

Yeah I didn't get it from Hahn but it looks legit.


Now let's do this Jeffries thing and drop Al Chuckington off on Chicago for Tyrus and then we can all STFU and look forward to the summer.

Remember what Nate did to Atlanta his first game back in the rotation....They better have gotten a pick back, all I'm sayin'....

Hahn I think had said earlier that the deal was being finalized with a pick involved.

Bright side of this deal is the pick and Douglas gets more minutes by default unless D'Antoni wants to give Jeffries backup PG minutes (if Jared is still here that is)...

"This is a very cautious situation that we're in. You have to be conservative in terms of using your assets and using them wisely. We're building for the future." - Zeke (I guess not protecting a first round pick is being conservative)

if House comes here, i'm sure D'antoni will play him a fair amount, with an eye on signing him for a minimum-ish deal to fill out the bench in the summer.

"D'Antoni wants House, and (Boston) really wants Nate, so everyone is motivated here," one source told Y! Sports.

Knicks and Celtics still talking on Nate Robinson-Eddie House, three sources say, but may not be a deal until tomorrow.

Very true, forgot about House. D'Antoni loves him and we would def. try to bring him back next year.

nate gonna light up the garden next time he is in town.

And the knicks will win!!!

This is a win-win. We move on and give TD some time and Nate gets to show his stuff with a better team. Celts have no pick this year, we are not getting thiers next year so its all just fine.

The kid is a hell of a talent with a small brain. I wish him well. He is likable and not a bad guy. Just "Special" in too many ways.

We get Eddie House and a Pick.

Sounds like a 3rd team was involved.

Sounds like the deal won't be finalized until tomorrow but it's been agreed upon by all parties.
