Read part about what Larry wants:
http://www.nytimes.com/2006/03/01/sports/basketball/01knicks.html?_r=1&oref=slogin
trade Jalen's contract to Lakers for Odom and Aaron McKie (his salary would allow Odom for Jalen to work under the cap - Lakers will have $30 million in payroll after the season and could sign one or two great free agents)
trade Taylor's contract to Nuggets for K-Mart (removing his big contract allows them to re-sign Nene and Carmelo Anthony and possibly avoid paying the luxury tax)
sign Claxton with the MLE
3 PGs – Marbury, Francis, and Claxton Athletic wing players – Odom, Richardson, and Crawford (he needs to learn how to guard though) Stabilzing vets – Malik and McKie 4 bigs – Curry, Frye, (those two need to play better D though) K-Mart, and Hilton Armstrong (UConn senior center – great at blocking shots, rebounding, running the floor and can also play some D, score a little in the post and has a decent jumper) with the Nuggets pick (use both picks to trade up if necessary)? Robinson (yay!!!), Lee (yay!!!), and James (boo!!!) could fill out the roster.
