Trade #1
Q. Richardson & Jerome James
for
Kenyon Martin
Explanation: B/c for 60-65 games a year, he's the perfect compliment to Curry. And most importantly, b/c he allows us to get rid of a few bad contracts and consolidate space on the roster for when we move Francis for 2-3 contracts. Denver won't get much else in return for K-Mart, and Q-Rich would fit well in their system. James is to make the salaries match, but hey.........atleast they wont have to resign Francisco Elson. ;.
Trade #2
Steve Francis & 29th Pick
for
Mike Miller & Brian Cardinal & Fut. 2nd
Explanation:They clear cap, and get that penetrator they sorely need (as shown by them being ousted out of the 1st round yet again). They have a very good team-oriented group, but they don't have that 1 guy that can take over in the 4th quarter. And fans are getting fed up with them continually getting ousted in the 1st round. Miller's good, but he's no Ben Gordon.
PLUS -- their attendance has been ****ty. Francis is a big name they could use. And him returning to the team that drafted him doesnt hurt either as far as press is concerned.
Potential Signing
Jared Jefferies -- 5 Yrs/30 Million.
Explanation: If Washington chooses NOT to lock him up, he'd be the perfect 2/3/4 defender for LB's system. Long and athletic. Look at the job he's done on Lebron...
Trade #3A (if Jefferies can be signed)
Mo Taylor & Fut. 2nd
for
Eric Snow & Ira Newble & Fut. 1st
Explanation: Dont worry. Newble would be cut. But Eric Snow gives us that tall, pass first, defensively strong vet backup that LB covets...
Trade 3B (if we CAN'T sign Jefferies)
Mo Taylor & Nate Robinson & Pick
for
Derek Fisher & Mickael Pietrus & Filler
Explanation: Same as Eric Snow scenario, only better. Pietrus is not as versatile as Jefferies, but he's still a solid perimeter defender...
06-07 Rotation
Eddy Curry Kenyon Martin Jared Jefferies/Mickael Pietrus Jamal Crawford Stephon Marbury
Mike Miller David Lee Jackie Butler Channing Frye Derek Fisher/Eric Snow
Spare Mins. For --- Malik Rose, Brian Cardinal, & Nate Robinson (if not traded)
If Nate is traded, use the Denver Pick on Lowry.
If not traded, use it on an athletic shotblocker...

DLee is the best thing to happen to NY in Isiah's 4 year tenure.
And that alone, though a positive on the radar, is sad as hell.
