"With Baxter, the Rockets have 16 players signed to guaranteed contracts and will eventually make a move to get down to the NBA maximum of 15. They could use players who did not play last season in the last seasons of their contract — including perhaps Moochie Norris and Vin Baker — in a two-for-one deal with a team looking to move a long-term deal to get salary-cap relief next summer."

Who would do a Moochie and Vin for Malik Rose trade?

Nah. To me only makes sense if you're going to immediately buy them out. Which only leads to more fiscal craziness for this franchise.

may as well...why would we take back to garunteed (sp) contracts, we're in the same position as houston with too few roster spots.

I'd rather buy out one of our PF's then take on two players to be bought out.
all kool aid all the time.

All right, I'm now like Pavlov's dog. I see the words Mo and Taylor and I immediately think . . .

Idiots who liked the Mo Taylor trade manup!

The beauty is it has nothing to do with a buy out. You can trade Rose for Vin and Mooch and str8 cut them. Vin is a FA after this year and Mooch has a Team option, so no buy out is necessary. Cut them, it opens up a roster spot right now and later it saves us money.

Guys, I know its nice to think about now and then about the Knicks one day being under the salary cap but it's not going to happen now or anytime soon. Dolan plays his game a certain way and thats the way its going to be played until he sells the Knicks. The draft, Exceptions and good trades is the only way your going to see new players on the Knicks... not via under the salary cap free-agency.
