Now, I just can't contain myself with trades until the lottery, I can't wait till the 19th, so here it goes. Say the Knicks get the 3rd pick in the draft, Chicago goes first, gets Ming, Golden State goes second, gets Jason Williams. Knicks on the clock. Draft DaJuan Wagner. Now, the lottery progresses and they come to the Clips towards the end. Here comes Stern with an announcement. The Knicks have traded Marcus Camby, the 2002 2nd rounder, and a 2003 second rounder to the Clippers for Lamar Odom and the 2002 first rounder, and with that pick they select Amare Stoudemire. Now, the Suns come on the clock next. Stern again, the Knicks have traded Latrell Sprewell to the Suns for Stephon Marbury and the Suns 2nd round draft pick. With the 2nd rounder, they pick Jiri Welsh, a guy who can play both point and 2-guard.
With Marbury and Wagner, two guys who love to break people down on the dribble and drive, lots of double teams arise with them slashing through. Either kick it back out to Houston for open 3s, Thomas and his open mid-range Js, hit Odom and let him take over, finish the play themselves or dish it to Amare to finish. The entire team would flourish, they wouldn't be that good next year, probably late lottery, but they build around the NYC/NJ talent of Starbury, Wagner, and Odom and also around Amare. Pretty good, and it'd be fun to watch.
