unless we start letting guys expire, we will have a roster of 20 guaranteed deals with our rookies benched for every mistake they make. i don't care what our salary total reads, but we CAN NOT trade, say, penny for a good player and contract filler. we already have 16 players including jackie and jerome. the roster is limited to 15. there is no way we can keep doing 2 or 3 for 1 trades, and those are the only ones we can do with the bloated contracts we're trying to move. eventually we have to cut our losses and let guys walk. like shandon anderson.
but Zeke is rebuilding new york style in unconvential ways its ok to keep taking on overpaid mediocre players who stun the developement of the younger players with more upside. I swear we better not trade the expiring contracts for the sake of making a trade. It better make sense like if not for a quality bigman then something like TT for Grant Hill who's contract expires after 2006/07 with H20 and Taylor and with Larry, Marbury, Hill, Crawford, Q we'll be a lot closer to a win now team and right up there with the best in the East.
