Looks like Mark Blount will sign with Denver soon.

From Today's NYPOST:
Layden wants this cleared up one way or another by this week as he heads to the Hamptons on vacation Monday, with or without Doleac in the fold. The Knicks are looking for a three-year deal and it is believed Doleac's agent is trying to squeeze out a fourth year. The Knicks were prepared to offer Doleac a three-year deal starting at about $2.2M, bringing the total to $7.5M.

If the Doleac signing crashes, one intriguing reserve center who just became a free agent is 7-footer Mikki Moore, whose contract was bought out by Detroit Monday and is available for the minimum $699,000.
-------------------

Mikki Moore at Center? Travis Knight is better.
I hope Layden doesn't desperately sign Doleac, especially if he's worried about his ankle.

we need to trade for a center. even if it's ostertag or bradley. (probably our only realistic options)

Why not sign Moore for the $700k - putting the iron to Doleac and his agent to get off the dime. Maybe then he will sign for the three years. $700K is nothing to the Knicks.. Just an option..

I think we should pursue Wang Zhi-Zhi. His perimeter presence gives McDyess more room to create around the basket. He's a restricted FA, but Dallas is unlikely to match any serious offer.
