The Knicks want center Theo Ratliff as badly as Ratliff wants them. A source close to Ratliff told The Post at last week's Boston summer league, where the Hawks were competing, that Ratliff wants out of Atlanta.
But it seems the only way of getting him is if the new ownership hires a new GM:
Indeed, Knight loves Ratliff, and if he keeps his job it is doubtful he'd trade Ratliff. The Pacers have also targeted Ratliff if Brad Miller leaves, and the Mavericks have attempted to pry him the past several months.
In another attempt to get bigger at small forward, the Knicks recently contacted Lamar Odom's reps but were told not to bother, that Odom won't accept a $4.9 million exception.
Looks like Lamar is probably going to be locked up long term by the Coupon Clippers.
