Zach and Marbs for joe smith, eric snow, ben wallace, and pavlovic.

Zach is the best player in the trade and he's the longest contract by a year.

Joe Smith, And Eric Snow clear after next season. So does Marbury.

Pavlovic has 2 years left. He's young and he can shoot it.

Reason? Clevland gets more cap off at once to try and sign someone else to play with Lebron. The Knicks still get decent cap room off but they still are adding players and attempting to stay compeditive while they rebuild. Having the 3 vets aronnd could be enough to change the work ethic, and better mentor the youngins we got here. It also forces the Knicks to waive some guy meaning jerome james.

I'd actually say Zach is the 5th best player in the trade

Replace Big Ben with Wally and I like it. Wally has a shorter contract and I don't Ben taking anything away from DLee.

The only way, I think, that Randolph will get moved this offseason is if the Knicks take back longer contracts than Zach's. Seeing as how Walsh is on board with fiscal responsibility, I don't see him getting moved this offseason at all. Hopefully what happens is that a team is desperate for a PF that can score at the deadline.

You know, after thinking about it for a minute, it does make sense for both teams. If LeBron think that Zach can be a powerful force and get in line. And Stephon would just have to behave, and play for a new contract. We can then turn around and trade Ben for a 1st rounder or something. No need to hold onto him.

Actually I would take WallyWorld in the deal instead of Wallace too, but Im not sure Cleveland will care for that. We'll have to see how they perform in the playoffs. If Wallace comes off completely done, then maybe.

Having Ben, joe and Eric around is important to me more than anything else....The Knicks need some veterans with some honor. These guys are 3 tough sob's that know the game. David needs that support behind him. Nate needs Eric Snow. Curry if he isn't traded, needs Ben Wallace. Mentors to show them the right way to do things. How to win. Guys that aren't just coaching but guys who are in the game and know whats going on out there. Knicks never had that and they need it going forward with the youth movement.

If any opportunity comes up that will rid us of either Curry or ZBo then it is a win-win for us. I don't think there is any other contract in the league that is worse than ZBo.

I think Padre Riles is still very much attracted to Curry despite his denials. It just makes sense for him specially if he lands Beasley. I would be happy if we trade Curry to MIA for Blount their 2nd rounder this year which is the 31st pick and a future 1st rounder. ooopppsss went off on a tangent...

I think that if Cleveland falters in the playoffs and shows that they are 1 post player away from going to the finals then they will bite the bullet with ZBo. I think you need a proven superstar to put ZBo in his place. Imagine how many easy shot ZBo will get LeBron driving to the basket.
