Has everyone forgotten that he was the best player on the portland team that imploded in the 4th quarter against the lakers in the western conference finals. It was HIS job to make them win and he didn't.
Have you forgotten HE was the best player on a team that GOT TO THE western conference finals. That is enough for me, put him with Steph the Knicks instantly become the fav in the east.
Trading KVH for Sheed is a no brainer. Talent wise it is no contest. Sheed plays the 4 kurt at 5 penny at 3. Sheed will get back to posting on the knicks cause thats what he will have to do. In port. Zach is cloggin the lane, you cant post two guys in the lane at the same time there is no room. So sheed is playing away from the basket.
Plus you get rid of KVH contract. he is way overpaid. Big bonus in this deal and the reason port. doesnt wanna do this deal. IF sheed dont work out here, guess what u can let him walk at the end of the yr and 17 mil come off the cap. This is the worst case, what is there to lose. My guess is you sign him at the end of the yr for about 8-9 mil a yr which is a bargin, most team will only be offering the MLE and no team will max him out cause of his past.
If Isiah gets Portland to do this deal he is exec of the yr.
