All these point guard deals hinge on signing big men to make Kurt Thomas expendable. That'd be a phenomenal team with 'Too Easy' at the point (didn't BDiddy get that nickname a few weeks ago at Rucker?), Spree and Houston on the wings and Clark and McDyess downlow.
Absolutely right, Bigsmooth!
I think that if we sign Keon, that'll be a start. Baron Davis is hardcore enough to hold his own @ the Rucker, so you KNOW what he will bring to the Garden! My main concern is that Scott LayDown will cut our throats (ie: Trade Spree) for a Davis deal. He already needed security just to exit the Garden on draft night... If he can make a move like that WITHOUT tampering with our core three, I would love to see it happen. If it means trading Kurt, so be it- we have both the $4.8M and the $1.4M exceptions at our disposal to sign big men.
Wait, are you saying you wouldn't do a Spree for Davis deal? I'd do it in a second.
Thats a tough one Spree for Davis. I think if the Knicks are going to win a championship they need a player like Spree. Looking at match up if the Knicks are to get into the championship they need someone to guard these player, T-Mac, Peirce, Carter, AI and Kobe there is no way Houston keeps up with these guys for that reason it is difficult to give up their best defender in Spree. Davis is a very good point that can be had for something other than Spree. KT, Williams and future first rounder will do the trick to land Davis.
Miller if the Knicks are to try and get him they can offer KT and future first rounder since the Cavs are so worried about next years lottery they might take a KNicks pick considering that Dice has suspect knees and is integral to the Knicks making it to the playoffs.
