Sign Juwan Howard for the full mid-level exemption. I don't care what you think of him....at the mid level exemption he would be a steal. After that waive Othella and Travis.

Beg and plead the Clippers to take our draft picks to compensate for Odom in a sign and trade deal. Whatever gets it done just do it!!!!

That's it.

Juwan Howard, Odom, KT, Eisley, and Houston is a drastic improvement over last year especially if Spree and the rest are on the bench still.

Nobody there?

Well what about a trade that brings Tim Thomas and Sam Cassell over?

We could send Sprewell and Othella over there.......or maybe spoon.....they are gonna want KT though.....if We trade Spree and KT for Tim Thomas and Cassell....the Knicks are gonna have to purchase a real starting center.

There are options and Layden has to explore all of them. KT and Spree are popular but If the Knicks can get taller at the 3 and get a clutch point guard then you gotta make a move especially since the Knicks already have players that play KT and Spree's natural positions already.

Juan Howard(If Dyess doesn't come back), Tim Thomas, Doleac(Kaman, or signing a center if Dyess comes back), Sam Cassell and Houston? That all sounds pretty darn good. We're not quite the same defensively but the Knicks are better in alot of ways.

Signing and trading for Odom and signing a true center is kind of far fetched.......you can't get both.

I'm just spitting options at you people!!!

I like the first one getting Howard and Odom.

I think the Bucks trade will depend on two things: a) how well they do in the playoffs this year and b) if they re-sign Payton. If they re-sign Payton, Cassel is expendable, and if they don't do well in the playoffs I think they're more open to a trade. I don't think they'd wwant Spree because they have two promising young swingmen in Redd and Mason.

spree: I would rather try and sign nesterovic for the full MLE, and as you said beg and plead for a trade with the clippers for odom, I think Howard is a fine player but Nesto is more of what we need...

Beggers can't be choosers. The Knick have been reduced to being beggers of the league sad days. All that spending now they are spent out. I take George Lynch now. Thank you Kindly.
