I have a question

If you were able land Camby&Kmart,J'Oneal, Artest all for bargain deals

like
Randolph, Balk & Rose for Camby & Kmart
Marbury for J'Oneal
Lee & Richardson for Artest

And have a frontcourt of Camby,Curry,O'neal,Martin,Artest,Chandler

Do you do it or do you avoid star phuching all together. You still would have the #6 to try and make a play for a pg. Even dangle Curry & or Crawford with the #6. Target Baron Davis, Billups, Hinrich. Curry & #6 for Billups & future late rd pick, Hinrich & future pick late rd pick, Crawford or Curry & #6 for Davis & future late rd pick.

I'm telling you......we should bargain shop. The deals you suggested are more that fair. The Knicks cap situation would not have changed much either. I say the Knicks do it all of it.

Curry to seattle for ridinour works for me. With kmart, oneal and camby, curry has no place.

none of those trades negatively effect our 2010 cap situation anyway... i would sign off on all of them, we're getting the better players in every 1 of those deals.

I'd only consider these trades in the 23rd hour if We can't get the guy we want at 6. My thought is in line with Slimpacks last thought. I'm hoping we have major sucktitude for one more yr. I want this team to have it's own star, not retreads. The only player I'd try and trade for out of all those guys is Camby. I have to admit though the trades accomplish our 2010-2011 cap goals.

i'll tell u why i'd sign off on it... Artest is an Allstar... D Lee isn't... neither is Q Rich... our biggest need is for more defensive minded players, & you don't get much better than Artest in this game, so he fills a huge need... you're also talking about getting Artest at a relative bargain price... in the past i've been against trading D Lee to get Artest but if we're making this trade for Camby, KMart & JO then i think along w/Artest at the 3 you'd have a pretty vicious defensive unit.

Basically......

The trades mentions had no draft picks changing hands so the Knicks still would have #6.......people still wanna tank next season already? To draft who? Old or not......Camby, O'neal, Kmart? On the same team? With Artest? And you still have craw? Wtf? This team would be better than most teams out there.

Damn crybabies.

hell yeah it would... & the best part is that none of those new acquisitions would really hurt our already fugged up cap situation... w/guys like Camby, JO, KMart & Artest to play D you wouldn't even notice Curry's complete lack thereof & he could concentrate on what he does best, which is scoring in the paint... w/2 premier shotblockers like Camby & JO along w/guys like KMart & Balk who can come in on the weakside to help & Artest shutting down the other team's top perimeter scorers, you also make up for the defensive deficiencies of our perimeter G's, & can safely draft basically whoever you want w/the #6 this season & not expect him to come in & contribute right away.

obviously the awesomeness & attractiveness of these deals probably means they never happen for us, but there's not a move in that list i wouldn't make today if i could. (btw, that was a 'Kung Fu Panda' reference... enjoyable movie & ur kids will love it too)

Lets ****ing do this!!!!! How gangsta and hungry would this team be? Injury concerns? If Oneal misses 20 games they have Kmart, if both are out make Jared earn a check. If Camby is out move oneal to center. If all 3 is out? Come on now stop playin, lol. Mo Williams is good for 20 games but Nate is still around.

I am thoroughly aroused right now.

This Knick team can put kmart and jermaine on Garnett with camby lurking. They can put Artest on Pierce with oneal, Kmart or Camby always lurking. Mo Williams is a tough perimeter defender and proven all around offensive talent, while Craw totally owns Ray Allen.

Lebron? Detroit and Boston gives him fits. What will he do with Artest in his face and Kmart, oneal, and camby watching his back?

Detroit? Please!!! Don't make me laugh.
