You don't have to use it as an atom bomb.

I'm just saying.....Marbs contract is an incredibly important piece of paper.

The names I threw out are just names we've endlessly debated here.......ok take Tmac for instance. Houston could say, "you know what **** it. Yao is our man. Lets hit the reset button with this trade and totally build around yao". Tmac now......like someone said, the knicks will have some more nuts poppin off in a few years. The Knicks could use that to attract more players.

Ultimately, the Knicks will have to spend again. Spend on who? Praying for Lebron is like praying Beyonce would see you in a crowd and just proclaim her love for your broke ass and divorce Jay-z.

In other words the Knicks could be left with nothing. Once Marbs contract is gone, that it! Shit is gone.

Question: during the year does anyone thing any new names will pop up as candidates for a massive dump?

Dare I say it......if san antonio comes out next year and lays an egg......do they pull a miami and tank. Do they possibly trade Duncan and start over? hey its just a question.

I'd trade his contract in a much bigger deal to get Carmelo, where they also get rid of Zach, or in a straight up deal for Jermaine O'Neal, whose contract expires in the summer of 2010.

Marbury
Randolph
#6

for

Carmelo
Camby
KMart

you actually posted that?

Yeah, want to make something of it?

The Knicks get a superstar player, a very useful defensive player with a reasonable contract and KMart, who started all 71 games that he played in last year. And most importantly, they get rid of Randolph.

The Nuggets get huge cap relief after next year, a guy who will put up numbers and a lottery pick that they can use on another Randolph who can be a younger Camby.

The big reason to get under the cap by 2010 is to try to get a player like Carmelo. Get him now and the importance of getting far under the cap in 2010 isn't as great.
